Definitions

  • the invention relates to a processing machine for processing sheets according to the preamble of claim 1 and a method for processing sheets according to the preamble of claim 11.
  • Various processing steps are used in processing machines for sheets, in particular corrugated cardboard sheets.
  • the sheets are subjected to pressurized fluid by means of at least one application unit and their mass and/or shape and/or contour are additionally or alternatively changed by at least one shaping device.
  • One possible application method is flexographic printing, using a flexographic printing unit with a form cylinder with a flexible printing form.
  • a possible shaping device is usually a punch.
  • the WO 2018/133975A1 teaches a sheet processing machine with at least one printing unit and at least one shaping unit, each with at least one dedicated drive.
  • An inspection device includes at least one optical sensor, by which register marks can be detected. Information on how a setting variable of the processing machine is to be changed is derived from position information obtained by the register marks.
  • the EP 0 615 941 A1 discloses a sheet processing machine with at least two processing units. At least one processing unit is a printing unit working according to the principle of flexographic printing, and another processing unit is a stamping unit. A transport unit with a transport means is arranged between two adjacent processing plants. A sheet is placed in the transport unit by a sensor recorded and its position checked. If the position of the sheet deviates from the target position, the transport means is accelerated or decelerated by means of a servo motor, so that the sheet arrives at the processing point of the subsequent processing unit with a precise fit.
  • the U.S. 6,059,705 A discloses a processing machine for carton blanks.
  • This includes a rotatably mounted processing head with a drive.
  • the processing head is designed to print or cut the cardboard blank, for example.
  • a transport means is arranged directly in front of the processing head, which conveys a carton blank to the processing head.
  • a sensor which generates a signal indicative of the carton blank, is arranged in front of the transport means along the transport direction of the carton blanks.
  • a control unit has means for changing the speed of the processing head when this is not in register with the carton blank detected by the sensor.
  • the US2005/085362 also discloses a processing machine for carton blanks.
  • the object of the invention is to create a processing machine for processing sheets and a method for processing sheets.
  • a processing machine for processing sheets comprises at least one application unit and at least one sheet sensor assigned to the respective application unit.
  • the at least one application unit has at least one printing unit with a forme cylinder and an individual drive assigned to the forme cylinder.
  • the at least one sheet sensor is arranged along a sheet transport path in front of the assigned application unit.
  • the at least one sheet sensor is designed to detect the time of arrival of sheets at the position of the sheet sensor.
  • the at least one sheet sensor is designed to regulate and/or control the position and/or speed of the respective forme cylinder. By detecting the sheet using the sheet sensor, a deviation of the actual arrival time of the sheet at the position of the sheet sensor from a reference can be determined.
  • the regulation and/or control of the forme cylinder on the basis of the deviation determined by the sheet sensor advantageously results in a sheet whose printed image and/or whose processing corresponds to a desired state of the sheet.
  • each application unit is assigned a sheet sensor, the position and/or the speed of the respective forme cylinder of each application unit can advantageously be regulated and/or controlled independently of other cylinders and/or rollers, in particular of other application units.
  • the processing machine has at least one inspection device.
  • the at least one inspection device is advantageously at least one register of a print image and additionally or alternatively at least one imaging element of sheets and additionally or alternatively at least one measure of a print length of the at least one print image of the respective sheet and additionally or alternatively at least one error of at least one processing of the respective Sheet and additionally or alternatively at least one error of the at least one printed image of the respective sheet formed detecting.
  • the inspection device allows the sheets to be at least partially detected and, additionally or alternatively, to check the quality of the processing by the at least one application unit and/or the shaping device. The quality of the sheets with regard to a register of a printed image and/or splashes of printing fluid and/or defects in the printed image and/or the surface condition of the sheets can be detected and evaluated.
  • the at least one inspection device is arranged along a transport path for sheets after the forme cylinder of the at least one printing unit.
  • a respective print image element of the print product can thus be detected.
  • the processing machine has a substrate feed device with at least one sheet sensor.
  • the at least one sheet sensor is arranged in such a way that its detection range has an intersection with a control section of the transport path provided for the transport of sheets and that the control section begins at a starting point which lies along the transport path provided for the transport of sheets after a storage area and/ or that the control section ends at a terminal point along the transport path provided for the transport of sheets before the at least one application unit is located.
  • This enables the arrival time of sheets to be recorded before they reach a first unit for processing.
  • the speed of sheets in the processing machine can be changed in this advantageous embodiment.
  • the processing machine advantageously has the substrate feed device with at least two sheet sensors, which are arranged one behind the other orthogonally to the transport path of sheets.
  • the at least two sheet sensors are advantageously designed to detect an inclined position of sheets. By detecting the skew, for example, an alignment of the sheet in question is initiated. Alternatively or additionally, for example, in the case of an uncorrectable oblique position of sheets, the relevant sheet is diverted to an alternative transport path, so that sheets which correspond to the target state are separated from waste sheets.
  • the forme cylinder is driven in each case mechanically independently of the respective other cylinders and/or rollers of the processing machine, as a result of which regulation and/or control is possible mechanically independently of other components of the processing machine.

  • the processing machine has the shaping device with the forme cylinder.
  • the at least one inspection device is advantageously arranged along the transport path of sheets after the forme cylinder of the shaping device, or at least one further inspection device is arranged in addition to a first inspection device. It is thus also possible to record and/or check the processed sheet.
  • the measurement of the print length detected by the at least one inspection device can be changed by changing the peripheral speed and/or speed of the forme cylinder relative to the peripheral speed and/or speed of an impression cylinder assigned to the respective forme cylinder.
  • the peripheral speed and/or the rotational speed of the forme cylinder relative to the peripheral speed and/or the rotational speed of the impression cylinder By changing the peripheral speed and/or the rotational speed of the forme cylinder relative to the peripheral speed and/or the rotational speed of the impression cylinder, the print image on the respective sheet is stretched or compressed, resulting in a change in the length of the sheet relative to the print image.
