Definitions
- the invention relates to the field of electronic reproduction technology and relates to a method for engraving printing cylinders in an electronic engraving machine, an engraving stylus monitoring device for an electronic engraving machine and an electronic engraving machine with such an engraving stylus monitoring device.
- an electronic engraving machine for engraving printing cylinders by means of an engraving member is already known.
- the engraving member with an engraving stylus controlled by an engraving control signal as the cutting tool moves in the axial direction along a rotating printing cylinder.
- the engraving stylus cuts a series of cups arranged in a printing grid into the outer surface of the printing cylinder.
- the engraving control signal is formed by superimposing a periodic raster signal with image signal values which represent the tonal values to be reproduced between "black” and "white”. While the raster signal causes an oscillating stroke movement of the engraving stylus to engrave the cells arranged in the printing raster, the image signal values determine the depths of cut of the engraved cells in accordance with the tonal values to be reproduced.
- DE-A-23 36 089 specifies an engraving element which essentially consists of a rotating system and an electromagnetic drive for the rotating system.
- the rotating system has a shaft, an armature, a bearing for the shaft, a restoring element and a damping device.
- a lever-shaped stylus holder is attached to the shaft and carries the engraving stylus.
- the electromagnetic drive for the rotary system has a stationary electromagnet to which the engraving control signal is applied, in the air gap of which the armature of the rotary system moves. The drive causes the shaft to rotate by a small angle, and the stylus holder with the engraving stylus carries out a corresponding oscillating stroke movement in the direction of the outer surface of the printing cylinder for the engraving of the cups.
- the invention is therefore based on the object of specifying a method for engraving printing cylinders in an electronic engraving machine, an engraving stylus monitoring device for an electronic engraving machine and an electronic engraving machine with such an engraving stylus monitoring device, by means of which the loss of time during printing form production, the in the event of damage to an engraving stylus during the engraving, is advantageously reduced.
- Fig. 1 is a block diagram of an electronic engraving machine with an engraving stylus monitoring device and Fig. 2 shows a basic embodiment for an engraving stylus monitoring device.
- Fig. 1 shows a block diagram of an electronic engraving machine, the game player, a HelioKlischograph ® from Hell Gravure Systems GmbH, Kiel, DE examples.
- a pressure cylinder (1) is driven by a rotary drive (2).
- An engraving element (3) with an engraving stylus (4) as a cutting tool is mounted on an engraving carriage (5) which can be moved in the axial direction of the rotating printing cylinder (1) with the aid of a spindle (7) driven by a feed drive (6).
- the engraving element (3) is equipped, for example, with an electromagnetic drive for the engraving stylus (4).
- the engraving stylus (4) can also be controlled by a solid-state actuator element made of a piezoelectric or magnetostrictive material.
- the engraving element (3) engraves a printing form (8) in that the engraving stylus (4), which is controlled by an analogue engraving control signal GS, cuts a series of engraving lines in the printing line (1) into the outer surface of the printing cylinder (1) while the engraving carriage (5) with the engraving element (3) for extensive engraving, step by step or continuously in the axial direction along the rotating printing cylinder (1).
- the engraving control signal GS on a line (9) is generated in an engraving amplifier (10) by superimposing a periodic raster signal R on a line (11) with an image signal B on a line (12), which the tone values of the wells to be engraved between "light "and depth” represents.
- the image signal values B determine the cutting depths of the wells in accordance with the tonal values to be reproduced D / A converter (13) obtained from engraving data GD of the printing form (8) to be engraved are stored in an engraving data memory (14), from which they are read out in engraving lines and fed to the D / A converter (13) via a data bus (15).
- Printing cylinders (1) are defined by the spatial coordinates (x, y) of a coordinate system assigned to the lateral surface of the printing cylinder (1), the X axis of which is aligned in the axial direction and the Y axis is aligned in the circumferential direction of the printing cylinder (1).
- the feed drive (6) generates the x location coordinates and a pulse generator (16) mechanically coupled to the pressure cylinder (1) generates the y location coordinates.
- the xy location coordinates are fed to an engraving control unit (18) via lines (17).
- the engraving control unit (18) generates the raster signal R on the line (11), read addresses for the engraving data memory (14) on an address bus (19) and signals for controlling and synchronizing the engraving sequence, for example a control signal SSi for the rotary drive (2) on a line (20) and a control signal SS 2 for the feed drive (6) on a line (21).
- the engraving machine has an engraving stylus monitoring device (23) in which the functionality of the engraving stylus (4) of the engraving member (3) is automatically checked continuously during the engraving on the basis of the engraving control signal GS and in the event of damage to the engraving stylus (4), in particular in the event of a stylus break, a control signal KS is generated.
- the functionality of the engraving stylus (4) is checked by examining harmonics in the engraving control signal GS that are characteristic of damage to the engraving stylus (4).
- the engraving control signal GS is fed to the engraving stylus monitoring device (23) from the engraving amplifier (10) via a line (25).
- the control signal KS which reaches the engraving control unit (18) via a line (24), switches the rotary drive (2) and the feed drive (6) on the lines (20, 21) by means of the control signals SSi and SS 2 in the event of a stylus break. to cancel the engraving.
- the stylus break can be signaled acoustically or optically with the aid of the control signal KS.
- the innovation has the advantage that by signaling a stylus break in order to save time, the engraving of a new printing cylinder (1) can be started immediately.
- the engraving termination in the event of a stylus break also prevents damage to the engraving element (3) or to the engraving machine itself, particularly in the case of an automatic engraving process.
- Fig. 2 shows a basic embodiment for the engraving stylus monitoring device (23).
- the engraving control current IQS supplied via the line (25) is converted at a measuring resistor (26) into a measuring voltage UM, which is passed through a capacitor (27) to separate the AC voltage component from an A / D converter ( 28) arrive and there is converted into measurement data MD.
- the measurement data MD are fed via a measurement data bus (29) to a signal processor (30), which can preferably be designed as a digital signal processor (DSP), for example of the TMS 320C31 type from Texas Instruments.
- DSP digital signal processor
- the measurement data MD are continuously examined for superimposed harmonics and the frequency spectrum of the harmonics is determined, for example, by a Fast Fourier Transform (FFT).
- FFT Fast Fourier Transform
- the determined frequency spectra are compared with a previously created and saved frequency spectrum, which is characteristic of an undamaged engraving stylus (4). If the frequency spectra do not match, the engraving stylus (4) is damaged and the control signal KS is generated on the line (24).
- the determined frequency spectra can also be compared with a frequency spectrum that is characteristic of a damaged engraving stylus (4), in which case the correction signal KS is generated if the frequency spectra match.
- Such Fourier transformations are known and are described, for example, in Rabbiner, LR: "Theory And Application Of Digital Signal Processing"; Cape. 6; 1975; ISBN 0-13-914101-4.
- the ratio of the useful signal to the interference signal is advantageously reduced by filtering the harmonics to be analyzed from the measurement voltage UM using a suitable filter (31), the filtering taking place as a function of the frequency of the raster signal R.
