Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for moistening a component, in particular a plate cylinder, in a printing press, according to the preamble of Claim 1.
- the present invention relates to a device for moistening a Component, in particular a plate cylinder, in a printing press, according to the Preamble of claim 7.
- dampening systems are used to moisten the rollers and cylinders, by means of which a colored image is transferred to a printing material web or sheet becomes.
- a dampening solution e.g. B. water or another mixed with water Liquid, transferred to one or more rollers or cylinders.
- the dampening solution can either be in the form of tiny drops directly on one of the rollers or sprayed on one of the cylinders of the printing press, or the dampening solution is transferred to one of the rollers or one of the cylinders via a dampening roller train.
- a dampening roller train consists of a series of rollers placed together that do the job Dampening solution on the subsequent roller and finally on the desired one Transfer printing cylinder.
- the dampening solution is either in the form of tiny Drops are sprayed onto one of the rollers of the dampening roller train or from one of them partially Dipped in dampening solution, rotating roller in the dampening solution tank.
- Dampening roller trains are due to the number of to distribute and to transfer Dampening solution rollers often require expensive and maintenance.
- the spray dampening systems described comprise a number of spray nozzles that dispense a conical or fan-shaped dampening solution spray.
- the nozzles are aligned with each other in such a way that the spray mist of each nozzle is immediately attached connects the spray of the neighboring nozzles to ensure that the to moistening roller is sprayed area-wide.
- the invention provides a method and a device for a printing press, by means of which the dampening solution is preferably applied in the form of essentially continuous, high-density dampening solution jets onto a component, e.g. B. a roller or a cylinder is transmitted.
- a component e.g. B. a roller or a cylinder is transmitted.
- Continuous jet refers to a uniform, preferably vortex-free, liquid jet which generates a minimal number of individual drops of dampening solution Dampening solution is distributed on the surface of the roller or cylinder by spreading radially on the surface of the roller or cylinder starting from the point of application of the jet and forming puddles, so to speak.
- Each of the continuous jets is through a jet orifice, preferably a nozzle or micro nozzle, through which the dampening solution exits at a suitable pressure of the dampening solution in the form of a continuous, relatively uniform, preferably laminar jet.
- a pressure distributor is preferably provided, along which preferably a row of spaced-apart jet shutters is arranged in the manner that along the length of the roller to be moistened, a series of continuous Rays is generated.
- the jet diaphragms are preferably designed as micro nozzles, and the pressure of the dampening solution is preferably adjustable via control valves. From the jet orifices emerging uniform rays, which are in the form of fountain solution puddles Spread on the roller surface, allow an even distribution of the Dampening solution over the entire length of the roller or cylinder surface.
- the pressure distributor 1 according to the invention preferably comprises one along the Length of the pressure distributor 1 running dampening solution inlet line 5, which is preferably is connected to a container D containing pressurized fountain solution.
- a bolt 7 can be provided to close one end of the inlet line 5.
- the pressure distributor 1 is pressurized by the inlet line 5 Dampening solution fed by means of a roller or a cylinder in a printing press should be moistened.
- a number of outlet lines 9 run through a wall of the pressure distributor 1.
- Die Outlet lines 9 connect the inside of the inlet line 5 with one of each Row of control valves 6 arranged on the pressure distributor 1.
- the outlet lines 9 accordingly conduct pressurized dampening solution to the control valves 6.
- Die Control valves 6 can be designed as any valve that is suitable for a To control liquid flow.
- the control valves 6 are of any known Control unit 10 controlled, for example a pneumatic or hydraulic Control console, an electronic microprocessor or other electronic Control unit.
- the control unit 10 sends signals to each via lines 11 individual of the control valves 6 and controls the opening and closing and the degree of opening or closing of the control valves 6.
- the control valves 6 control the dampening solution inflow from the inlet line 5 to others Inlet openings 8, each to a pressure chamber 4 a variety of along the Guide the length of the pressure distributor 1 arranged pressure chambers 4.
- the control valves 6 accordingly regulate the pressure in each of the pressure chambers 4.
- Each of the pressure chambers 4 directs dampening solution to a group spaced apart across the width of the pressure distributor 1 arranged beam orifices 3.
- the beam orifices 3 are at a distance d from one another arranged and each produce a continuous fountain solution jet 9, which from the Beam orifices 3 emerges and onto a roller or cylinder, for example one Plate cylinder P strikes.
- the jet diaphragms 3 are preferably in the form of micro nozzles, i.e. H. than very small nozzles Opening, trained. You can work directly into one side of the pressure distributor 1, e.g. B. drilled, or form a separately manufactured component, which in a Side of the pressure distributor 1 formed opening is inserted. As detailed below is explained, the size of the beam diaphragm 3 is selected such that the beam diaphragm at a pressure of the dampening solution as it is in the pressure chambers 4 through the control valves 6 is generated, a continuous fountain solution jet 8 of high density and in particular a beam consisting of an essentially laminar stream produce.
- the pressure in the pressure chambers 4 can be controlled in this way be within a suitable range in which an im Substantially laminar current emerges from the jet diaphragms 3, all of which are predetermined Have size.
- the pressure in the pressure chambers 4 is regulated via the control valves 6, which in turn are controlled by the control unit 10.
- a feedback system 12 the Z. B. to monitor the pressure of the dampening solution in the pressure chamber 4 with a Pressure sensor (not shown) can be coupled in the pressure chambers 4 can do this be used to ensure that the pressure in the pressure chambers 4 are within of the appropriate range so that continuous beams from the beam diaphragms 3 exit the specified size.
- the pressure in the Pressure chambers 4 are regulated by the control unit, so that the Flow rate can be changed.
- the flow rate can be this way varied and adapted to different conditions when on a roller or a cylinder in the printing press requires more or less dampening solution.
- FIG. 4 shows the pressure distributor 1 according to the invention in a position in which the plate cylinder P rotating in the direction R is moistened, which transfers ink to a blanket cylinder B in an offset printing machine.
- the pressure distributor 1 is oriented in such a way that it transfers dampening solution in the form of continuous jets of high density to the surface of the plate cylinder P.
- the flow rate and the speed of the jets emerging from the jet orifices 3 can be varied in such a way that different jet profiles S 1 (low flow rate), S 2 (medium flow rate) or S 3 (high rate Flow rate).
- the flow rate of the jet orifices 3 is regulated by the control valves 6 for each pressure chamber 4.
- the different flow rates control the degree of moistening of the surface of the plate cylinder P. In this way, the degree of moistening of the plate cylinder P can be regulated while at the same time ensuring that the pressure distributor 1 and the jet orifices 3 generate continuous jets.
- the jet diaphragms 3 are arranged at a distance from one another in such a way that the from continuous rays S produced an even distribution of them Dampening solution on the surface of the roller to be moistened or the one to be moistened Effect cylinder.
- Fig. 5 it is shown how the dampening solution on the surface of the Plate cylinder P is applied.
- the continuous rays S, which in their Impact point on the plate cylinder P shown in cross-section are distributed in Form of puddles or laughs, which are in the directions indicated by the arrows spread.
- the dampening solution of one flows Jet S with the dampening solution of the adjacent continuous jet S in one Cutting area I together.
- the distance d is chosen in such a way that the distributing dampening solution with the different possible flow rates of the Jet shutters 3 with the dampening solution of the neighboring jet S flows together without gaps.
- the dampening solution forms an area downstream of rays S in the direction of rotation Moistening layer L, which extends over the entire length of the plate cylinder P. and evenly moistened the plate cylinder.
