However, among the rollers of the ink supply system,
The contacting roller rotates in the direction of the arrow, and when the contact part of the roller separates in the direction of the arrow, the ink is evenly distributed to both rollers, so the speed at which the ink moves from the ink supply port to the plate cylinder is extremely high. It is too late, and even if the ink supply amount is adjusted with the ink key 2 of the ink supply unit, it takes time until it is reflected in the image, and the ink key 2 is adjusted many times until the optimum image is obtained. In the meantime, a huge amount of waste paper is generated.

Further, the ink film thickness adjusted by the ink key 2 is smoothed while passing through a large number of rollers, and when reaching the plate cylinder, the film thickness change becomes small, so that an optimum image is obtained. There was a problem that a high degree of skill was required for key adjustment. The present invention is proposed in view of the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to adjust an optimum image in a short time, to significantly reduce wasted paper, and to adjust an optimum image with skill. It is an object of the present invention to provide an ink film thickness control method and apparatus that can be easily performed without requiring a certain degree.

Next, the operation of the ink film thickness control device shown in FIG. 1 will be described. In the course of a certain experiment, we found that when the printing ink was subjected to positive corona charging, the ink film thickness increased, and when negative corona charging was applied, the ink film thickness decreased.
FIG. 4 shows the relationship between the ink film thickness and the corona charging voltage in the case of raw ink (indigo). In the experiment, the ink transfer device shown in FIG. 5 was used, charged with a corotron, and the ink film thickness was measured by an infrared moisture content film thickness meter.

The film thickness reaches about twice when positively charged and 80% when negatively charged as compared with the case where no charging is applied. This is because the ratio of the amount of ink distributed to both rollers changes when the contact portion of the rollers separates in the direction of the arrow in FIG.
This was determined by experiments. The present invention utilizes this phenomenon for controlling the ink transfer rate. That is, the positive corona charging voltage was set to +8.5 KV and the negative corona charging voltage was set to -8 KV. Further, when the experiment was conducted with the paper feed speed set to 3.3 m / s, the following results were obtained.

The moving speed of the ink was changed by the gap of the ink supply section and the ink key during the steady operation, and it was evaluated by how long it appeared as a change in the density of the printed matter. Specifically, use a plate with 50% halftone dots that is uniform over the entire surface, and set all ink key gaps to 1 in the initial state.
The gap between the two ink keys in the central portion was increased to 180 μm at a certain moment, and the number of lost sheets from that moment until the density change appeared was evaluated.

As a result, when corona charging was not performed, there was 160 sheets of damaged paper, whereas when positive corona charging and negative corona charging were performed, it was 85 sheets, which is clearly the ink transfer speed. There was an increase. In addition, the experiment was carried out by applying only the positive corona charge without applying the negative corona charge.
At this time, 105 broke sheets were obtained, and even in this case, the effect of sufficiently increasing the ink moving speed was observed.

(Second Embodiment) Next, a second embodiment of the ink film thickness control device used for carrying out the ink film thickness control method of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 2 and 3. Is for controlling the ink film thickness in the roller axis direction by corona charging instead of the ink key in the ink supply section.

In this embodiment, a copper roller (K

It is originally preferable to assign one high-voltage power source to each corona charger 11, but in view of cost, those having similar drawing rates are grouped into one group,
It is realistic to allocate one high voltage power supply to one group.

In the experiment, the two corona chargers 11 in the central part were used.
A voltage of +8.5 KV was applied to and the number of damaged sheets before the density of the printed matter changed was evaluated. At this time, the gap widths of all the ink keys were set to 100 μm. As a result, it was found that the ink film thickness can be controlled at a very high speed with the number of damaged sheets being 5. It was also found that the print density can be changed to some extent when the corona charging voltage is changed positively and negatively.

The present invention is not limited to the first and second embodiments. For example, instead of installing all the positive and negative corona chargers illustrated in the first embodiment, the positive and negative corona chargers may be appropriately removed. In particular, the effect of negative corona charging is not so great, so it can be omitted as appropriate. Further, in the second embodiment, the position where the corona charger is installed is not limited to the vicinity of the copper roller (K 2 ) 13 shown in FIG. 2, but the corona charger is installed near another copper roller which is grounded. It doesn't matter.
