The present invention generally relates to the mounting and adjusting of printing plates on corresponding plate cylinders of multicolour offset printing presses. The invention more specifically relates to such mounting and adjusting of printing plates on multicolour offset printing presses of the type comprising multiple plate cylinders transferring inks to a common blanket cylinder. The invention is in particular applicable to so-called Simultan-type offset printing presses for the simultaneous recto-verso printing of sheet or web material as used in the context of the production of security documents, such as banknotes.
The “Simultan” process is a distinctively different and secure offset printing process created by the Applicant more than five decades ago, which process is widely applied in the security printing industry. This process is increasingly being challenged by the ever-increasing quality of readily available counterfeit methods of desktop publishing and commercial printing.
The Simultan process is radically different form commercial offset printing. Commercial offset printing presses create multicolour images using a number of separate printing units through which the paper runs in succession. The paper is travelling from one unit to the next to collect all separate colours one after the other on the substrate. However, the substrate is a flexible, living material that warps with pressure, humidity and temperature. Even with the best material these variations vary at random. Consequently colour to colour registration at the end of the printing process is slightly different for different areas of the print. Colour images printed on commercial offset printing presses are typically generated by combinations of microscopic dot arrays, which are sufficiently forgiving for these variations. In contrast, security prints produced on security offset printing presses, especially by way of the above-mentioned Simultan process, require a perfect plate to plate registration on the entire sheet. Here, the specific design of the Simultan offset printing press (as sold by the Applicant under the registered trade name Super Simultan®) comes into play. Indeed, rather than being based on the use of separate printing units as in the above-described commercial printing presses, the Simultan offset printing press (an example of which is illustrated in
It is not enough to have a precise press, but all elements in the process must be equally precise. While the Simultan process exhibits technically unmatched printing performance, there is still a need to improve this process and achieve even higher printing accuracy and colour registration. In order to keep its leading edge in security printing and to maintain a safe distance from the existing and ever-evolving threats, the whole process, from the origination through plate-making and make-ready in the press, has been reviewed and upgraded with a view to provide unprecedented precision in an easy-to-master way and open the door to an entirely new class of security features to the security printing industry.
A general aim of the invention is thus to improve the known methods with a view to achieve and ensure high print register in multicolour offset printing presses, especially in offset printing presses of the type comprising multiple plate cylinders transferring inks to a common blanket cylinder, such as and in particular Simultan-type offset printing presses for the simultaneous recto-verso printing of sheet or web material.
More particularly, an aim of the invention is to improve the known methods of mounting and adjusting printing plates on plate cylinders of multicolour offset printing presses.
Yet another aim of the invention is to improve such methods with a view to master the entire process, from origination through plate-making and make-ready in the press, and ensure that influences on plate registration, and thereby print register are almost entirely eliminated.
These aims are achieved thanks to the solution defined in the claims.
More precisely, there is provided a method of mounting and adjusting a printing plate on a plate cylinder of a multicolour offset printing press, the method comprising the following steps:
a) clamping a leading end of the printing plate in a front clamping bar of the plate cylinder;
b) wrapping the printing plate around the circumference of the plate cylinder;
c) clamping a trailing end of the printing plate in a rear clamping bar of the plate cylinder, which rear clamping bar is movable under the application of a tensioning force and occupies, upon clamping of the trailing end of the printing plate, a tension-release position;
d) tensioning the printing plate by applying a nominal tensioning force to the rear clamping bar, thereby causing the rear clamping bar to move from the tension-release position to a nominal tensioning position;
e) setting and storing the nominal tensioning position as a reference position of the rear clamping bar;
f) measuring a print register of the tensioned printing plate;
g) comparing the measured print register of the tensioned printing plate with a target print register and determining a corrected tensioning position of the rear clamping bar corresponding to the target print register;
h) releasing the tension of the printing plate;
i) setting the previously-determined corrected tensioning position as new reference position of the rear clamping bar before or after tensioning again the printing plate; and
j) if necessary, repeating steps f) to i) until the measured print register matches the target print register.
In accordance with a first embodiment of the invention, step i) includes setting the previously-determined corrected tensioning position as new reference position of the rear clamping bar before tensioning again the printing plate by applying a tensioning force to the rear clamping bar thereby causing the rear clamping bar to move to the new reference position.
In accordance with a second embodiment of the invention, step i) includes tensioning again the printing plate by applying a tensioning force to the rear clamping bar thereby causing the rear clamping bar to move to a correcting position before setting the previously-determined corrected tensioning position as new reference position of the rear clamping bar.
Thanks to this method, correct and precise mounting of the printing plates on the plate cylinders of the printing press can be ensured with unprecedented ease of operation.
Furthermore, undesired and irreversible plate distortions that would often occur as a result of the prior plate mounting procedures are now a story of the past.
According to another aspect of the invention, variations in the handling of the printing plates are prevented thanks to a semi-automatic plate clamping procedure limiting the number of manual operations from the operator and ensuring unmatched repeatability.
Further advantageous embodiments of the invention form the subject-matter of the dependent claims and are discussed below.
Other features and advantages of the present invention will appear more clearly from reading the following detailed description of embodiments of the invention which are presented solely by way of non-restrictive examples and illustrated by the attached drawings in which:
a to 5e are schematic side views of a plate cylinder of the printing press and of an associated printing plate cassette holder, which side views illustrate various stages of a plate clamping procedure according to a preferred embodiment of the invention whereby a printing plate is clamped and mounted on the circumference of the plate cylinder;
a to 6e are schematic views illustrating the leading end and trailing end of a printing plate clamped in corresponding front and rear clamping bars, respectively, which views illustrate various stages of a plate tensioning procedure according to a first embodiment of the invention whereby a printing plate, which has been clamped and mounted on the circumference of the plate cylinder, is tensioned to achieve a desired, target print register; and
a to 7e are schematic views illustrating the leading end and trailing end of a printing plate clamped in corresponding front and rear clamping bars, respectively, which views illustrate various stages of a plate tensioning procedure according to a second embodiment of the invention whereby a printing plate, which has been clamped and mounted on the circumference of the plate cylinder, is tensioned to achieve a desired, target print register.
The invention will be described hereinafter in the context of a multicolour sheet-fed offset printing press for the simultaneous recto-verso printing of sheets as used in the context of the production of security documents, such as banknotes. Such a security printing press is commonly referred to as a so-called “Simultan-type” (or simply “Simultan”) security printing press, as printing of the sheets is carried out on both sides of the sheets in a simultaneous manner. Such a Simultan-type printing press is sold by the instant Applicant under the registered trademark “Super Simultan®”.
The security printing press illustrated in
The printing group of the press, which is adapted in this case to perform simultaneous recto-verso offset printing of the sheets, comprises in a conventional manner two blanket cylinders (or impression cylinders) 10, 20 rotating in the direction indicated by the arrows and between which the sheets are fed to receive multicolour impressions. In this example, blanket cylinders 10, 20 are three-segment cylinders. The blanket cylinders 10, 20 receive and collect different ink patterns in their respective colours from plate cylinders 15 and 25 (four on each side) which are distributed around a portion of the circumference of the blanket cylinders 10, 20. These plate cylinders 15 and 25, which each carry a corresponding printing plate, are themselves inked by corresponding inking units 13 and 23, respectively, in a manner known in the art. The two groups of inking units 13 and 23 are advantageously placed in two inking carriages 100, 200 that can be moved toward or away from the centrally-located plate cylinders 15, 25 and blanket cylinders 10, 20.
Sheets are fed from a feeding station 1 located next to the printing group (on the right-hand side in the Figures) onto a feeder table 2 and then to a succession of transfer cylinders 3a, 3b, 3c (three cylinders in this example) placed upstream of the blanket cylinders 10, 20. While being transported by the transfer cylinder 3b, the sheets may optionally receive a first impression on one side of the sheets using an additional printing group (not illustrated) as described in European patent No. EP 0 949 069 B1 and International application No. WO 2007/042919 A2, transfer cylinder 3b fulfilling the additional function of impression cylinder in such a case. In case the sheets are printed by means of the optional additional printing group, these are first dried by a drying or curing unit 4 before being transferred to the blanket cylinders 10, 20 for simultaneous recto-verso printing.
In the example of
The chain gripper system 5 typically comprises a pair of chains holding a plurality of spaced-apart gripper bars (not shown) each provided with a series of grippers for holding a leading edge of the sheets. As shown in
In the example of
Turning to
As is known in the art, each printing plate is wrapped around the corresponding plate cylinder and clamped at its leading end and trailing end by a suitable plate clamping system, which plate clamping system is located in a corresponding cylinder pit of the plate cylinder. Such cylinder pits are designated by reference numerals 15a and 25a in
A suitable plate cylinder and plate clamping system is illustrated in
The plate clamping system comprises a front clamping bar FC and rear clamping bar RC which are respectively designed to hold a leading end (hereinafter designated by reference LP) and a trailing end (hereinafter designated by reference TP) of the printing plate. Both clamping bars FC, RC are mounted in the cylinder pit 15a, 25a of the plate cylinder 15, 25. As is typical in the art, the front clamping bar FC is provided with a pair of register pins 31, 32 designed to cooperate with corresponding register punch holes provided at the leading end LP of the printing plate, which register pins and register punch holes ensure a defined mounting of the leading end of the printing plate in and with respect to the front clamping bar FC. The register pins 31, 32 and corresponding register punch holes (designated by references Pa and Pb) are also depicted in
The use of register pins and register punch holes is common in the art and one may in particular refer to the disclosure of European patent applications Nos. EP 0 581 212 A1, EP 0 711 664 A1, EP 0 933 204 A1.
According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the register pins 31, 32 each have at least one sensor element designed to indicate accurate fitting abutment of the register punch holes Pa, Pb of the printing plate against the register pins 31, 32. Such sensors are schematically illustrated in
According to an advantageous variant of the invention, the register punch holes Pa, Pb are provided in register with a printing image imaged on the printing plate, the register punch holes Pa, Pb being punched after imaging of the printing image on the printing plate and in relation to a position of the printing image on the printing plate. High-precision punching apparatus for the punching of register punch holes in register with the printing image of the printing plate are known per se in the art. Such an apparatus is for instance available from Polygraphische innovative Technik Leipzig GmbH, or “PITSID”, (www.pitsidleipzig.com) under the designation “Automatic Precision Plate Punch” (“Automatische Präzisions-Plattenstanze”), or “APP”, and was developed together with the SID Leipzig (Sächsisches Institut für die Druckindustrie GmbH—www.sidleipzig.de). Similar systems are also available from LEHNER GmbH, Sensor-Systeme (www.lehner-gmbh.com). Thanks to such solutions, high register between the printing image on the printing plate and the positioning of the printing plate in accordance with the register pins and register punch holes is ensured with an accuracy of the order of a few microns.
Under normal conditions, the front clamping bar FC is acting as fixed reference for the leading end LP of the plate and is not normally adjusted in position. Nevertheless, two adjusting elements 51, 52 are provided in this example. The adjusting elements 51, 52 are located in the remaining opening of the cylinder pit 15a, 25a of the plate cylinder 15, 25, on the right-hand side and left-hand side of a rear wall portion of the front clamping bar FC (see also
The rear clamping bar RC, on the other hand, is designed to be movable along the circumferential direction and multiple adjusting elements, in this case four adjusting elements 61 to 64, are provided to allow fine adjustment of the position of the rear clamping bar RC as this will be explained hereinafter in reference to
Preferably, movement of the rear clamping bar RC is controlled pneumatically by way of an adequate pneumatic system (not detailed here) which is designed to urge the rear clamping bar RC towards a center portion of the cylinder pit 15a, 25a, thereby causing the printing plate to be tensioned. Such system may in particular include an inflatable pneumatic hose located between the rear clamping bar RC (conveniently mounted on a slide) and a wall portion of the cylinder pit 15a, resp. 25a, to selectively urge the rear clamping bar to its tensioning position. Adjustment of the pneumatic pressure applied to the inflatable pneumatic hose allows for an adjustment of the tensioning force applied by the rear clamping bar RC.
As mentioned above, the rear clamping bar RC is designed to be moveable in the circumferential direction toward an inner portion of the cylinder pit 15a, 25a (i.e. towards the right in
The rear clamping bar RC is suitably provided with a locking device 45 to allow the rear clamping bar RC to be mechanically locked in position onto the plate cylinder 15, 25. In this way, the rear clamping bar RC is only actively actuated (for instance pneumatically) when tensioning the printing plate and, once the rear clamping bar RC is appropriately positioned, the locking device 45 comes into play to mechanically lock the rear clamping bar RC in position, allowing the actuation force applied on the rear clamping bar during the tensioning procedure to be suppressed. It will however be appreciated that other solutions could be envisaged in order to lock or hold the rear clamping bar RC into position (see e.g.
As this will be appreciated hereinafter, the above features of the plate clamping system are put into practice to achieve accurate mounting and tensioning of the printing plate on each plate cylinder 15, 25.
a to 5e illustrate various stages of a plate clamping procedure according to a preferred embodiment of the invention whereby a printing plate, designated by reference P is clamped and mounted on the circumference of each plate cylinder 15. While
Generally speaking, the printing plate (which is designated by reference P in the Figures) is first clamped at its leading end LP in the front clamping bar FC, then wrapped around the plate cylinder 15, 25, and finally clamped at its trailing end TP in the rear clamping bar RC, which procedure is generally illustrated by
Tests carried out by the Applicant have shown that the initial step, namely the clamping of the leading end LP of the printing plate P in the front clamping bar FC is a particularly critical step as accurate positioning of the printing plate is greatly dependent on the way the printing plate P is clamped at its leading end LP. In accordance with a particularly preferred embodiment, clamping of the leading end LP of the printing plate P is performed as follows:
i. a rotational position of the plate cylinder 15, 25 is adjusted to match a defined rotational position for mounting of the printing plate (designated by reference P in the Figures);
ii. the front clamping bar FC of the plate cylinder 15, 25 is opened to receive the leading end LP of the printing plate P;
iii. the printing plate P is positioned with respect to the plate cylinder 15, 25 so that the leading end LP of the printing plate P exhibits a defined position and orientation with respect to the plate cylinder 15, 25 and the front clamping bar FC;
iv. the leading end LP of the printing plate P is inserted in the front clamping bar FC of the plate cylinder 15, 25; and
v. the front clamping bar FC of the plate cylinder 15, 25 is closed, thereby clamping the leading end LP of the printing plate P.
Optionally, one or more underlays may be inserted between the circumference of the plate cylinder 15, 25 and the printing plate P after step v and before the printing plate P is wrapped around the circumference of the plate cylinder 15, 25.
Steps iv. and v. above are in particular carried out with the aid and assistance of the aforementioned register pins 31, 32 and register punch holes Pa, Pb so that proper register between the leading end LP of the printing plate P and the front clamping bar FC is guaranteed.
The above-listed steps are important in that they ensure that the printing plate P is positioned with respect to the plate cylinder 15, 25 and front clamping bar FC and inserted in the latter with as little influence from external factors as possible. In that respect, it is advantageous, in the context of the Simultan offset printing press shown in
This is further facilitated and guaranteed, according to a particularly advantageous implementation of the invention, by the use of a printing plate cassette holder, designated by reference numeral 300 in
The printing plate cassette holder 300 is schematically illustrated in
As illustrated in
As a further refinement, it is advantageous to pre-bend the leading end LP and trailing end TP of the printing plate P prior to mounting of the printing plate P on the plate cylinder 15, 25. Bending of the leading and trailing ends LP, TP of the printing plates to defined bending angles favours a proper positioning and wrapping of the printing plate P on the plate cylinder 15, 25.
a illustrates a possible positioning and orientation of the plate cylinder 15, 25, of the printing plate P and of the printing plate cassette holder 300 at the beginning of the plate clamping procedure. As illustrated, a rotational position of the plate cylinder 15, 25 is adjusted to correspond to the illustrated position, i.e. a defined position bringing the front clamping bar FC (not illustrated in
b illustrates the insertion of the leading end LP of the printing plate P in the front clamping bar FC which is in an open position (i.e., referring to the illustration of
Preferably, insertion of the leading end LP of the printing plate P in the front clamping bar FC is performed with a view to position this leading end LP with a defined relative position with respect to the mouth of the front clamping bar FC, i.e. care is taken that the leading end LP of the printing plate P sits in a defined relative position with respect to the upper and lower portions of the mouth of the front clamping bar FC. It has indeed been noticed that the position of the leading end LP of the printing plate P in the mouth of the front clamping bar FC may have an effect on the way the printing plate P is clamped.
Once the leading end LP of the printing plate P has been properly inserted in the front clamping bar FC, the front clamping bar FC is closed as illustrated schematically by opposite arrows in
d illustrates the wrapping of the printing plate P around the circumference of the plate cylinder 15, 25, which wrapping is aided by the action of the pressing roller 320 that forces the printing plate to accurately follow the curvature of the plate cylinder 15, 25. This wrapping process can be fully automated, the printing press taking control of this step and ensuring that the printing plate P is wrapped under defined and repeatable conditions.
e illustrates the end of the wrapping operation upon which the rotation of the plate cylinder 15, 25 is stopped and the trailing end TP of the printing plate P is brought next to the location of the rear clamping bar RC (not illustrated in
Following the plate clamping procedure described above, the printing plate P is effectively clamped and wrapped around the plate cylinder 15, 25. The printing plate P however still needs to be put under tension and be adjusted so as to reach the desired target print register, i.e. accurate register between the various colours on each side of the printed material, as well as register between the patterns printed on both sides.
A plate tensioning procedure according to a first embodiment of the invention will now be described in reference to
As mentioned hereinabove, print register is affected by and depends on a number of factors, including the printing press mechanics (gears, bearings, drives, etc.) and the printing plate per se. The printing plate material may play a rather considerable role in that context. The following plate tensioning procedure is aimed at ensuring that the printing plate is precisely and accurately positioned and tensioned to ensure proper print register from the leading to the trailing end of the print.
a is a schematic illustration of the leading end LP and trailing end TP of the printing plate P which is clamped (but not tensioned at this stage) between the front and rear clamping bars FC, RC. The adjusting elements 51, 52 and 61 to 64 that were discussed previously in reference to
In the illustration of
b illustrates a state where the rear clamping bar RC has been moved under the application of a nominal tensioning force (schematically illustrated by the white arrow indicated by reference Fo). As a result, the printing plate is put under tension (the tensioned plate being designated in such a case by reference P*). The rear clamping bar RC, which is free to move, is thereby displaced to a tensioning position (or “nominal tensioning position”). In the illustrated example, the nominal tensioning position corresponds to an equilibrium between the nominal tensioning force Fo applied to the rear clamping bar RC and the resulting reactive force Fr produced by the tensioned printing plate P* (such reactive force Fr being schematically illustrated by the dashed arrow in
As already mentioned hereinabove, tensioning of the printing plate P is preferably carried out pneumatically. In addition, it is highly advantageous to ensure that tensioning of the printing plate is performed by a rapid movement of the entire rear clamping bar RC which acts and applies a tensioning force over the whole width of the printing plate. The rapid movement of the rear clamping bar ensures that the tensioning force is appropriately distributed along the entire width and length of the printing plate P, leading to a uniform, and mostly elastic elongation of the printing plate P.
Once the equilibrium schematically illustrated in
Next, as illustrated in
Adjustment of the tensioning of the printing plate P first requires a suitable measurement of the print register of the tensioned printing plate P*. This can be done, once all printing plates have been clamped and tensioned on their corresponding plate cylinders, by printing sample sheets onto which the variations in print register can be assessed and measured. Appropriate measuring tools can be used to assist the operator in this operation.
Once the print register has been measured for each colour and each printing plate, and compared to a target print register, corrections can be determined, which corrections are translated into corresponding and necessary adjustments of the rear clamping bar RC. Generally speaking, if the measurements show that a printing length for a given printing plate is too short, then this can be translated into a corresponding adjustment of the position of the rear clamping bar RC forcing a longer elongation of the printing plate P. Conversely, if the measurements show that a printing length for a given printing plate is too long, then this can be translated into a corresponding adjustment of the position of the rear clamping RC forcing a shorter elongation of the printing plate P. These adjustments may obviously differ along the width of the printing plate. Therefore, corrections are determined at various locations along the width of the printing plate P and translated into corresponding adjustments to be made by way of the adjusting elements 61 to 64. In other words, a corrected tensioning position of the rear clamping bar RC corresponding to the target print register is determined.
Before doing any adjustment of the position of the rear clamping bar RC, the printing plate P is however returned to a non-tensioned state, as schematically illustrated in
Once the necessary corrections have been made, the printing plate is tensioned again by applying a tensioning force Ft to the rear clamping bar RC, thereby causing the rear clamping bar RC to move to the new reference position as illustrated by
Once the tensioning of the printing plate P is carried out, the rear clamping bar RC can be locked in the new tensioning position. Referring again to
Assuming that the adjustments have been properly made for all printing plates, the printing press shall be correctly set up to achieve the desired target print register. This being said, the above procedure can be repeated by again measuring the print register of the tensioned printing plate P* and determining if corrections are still required, in which case the same procedure as described above is followed. The relevant correcting steps can be repeated until the measured print register matches the target print register.
An alternate plate tensioning procedure according to a second embodiment of the invention will now be described in reference to
In contrast to the embodiment of
a is a schematic illustration of the leading end LP and trailing end TP of the printing plate P which is clamped (but not tensioned at this stage) between the front and rear clamping bars FC, RC. The configuration of the front clamping bar FC, including the adjusting elements 51, 52, as well as the arrangement of the register pins 31, 32 is similar to what has already been described hereinabove.
In the illustration of
b illustrates a state where the rear clamping bar RC has been moved under the application of a nominal tensioning force (schematically illustrated by the white arrow indicated by reference Fo). As a result, the printing plate is put under tension (the tensioned plate being designated in such a case by reference P*). The rear clamping bar RC, which is free to move, is thereby displaced to a tensioning position (or “nominal tensioning position”). In the example illustrated in
Like in the first embodiment discussed hereinabove, tensioning of the printing plate P is preferably carried out pneumatically. It is likewise highly advantageous to ensure that tensioning of the printing plate is performed by a rapid movement of the entire rear clamping bar RC which acts and applies a tensioning force over the whole width of the printing plate. The rapid movement of the rear clamping bar again ensures that the tensioning force is appropriately distributed along the entire width and length of the printing plate P, leading to a uniform, and mostly elastic elongation of the printing plate P.
Once the equilibrium schematically illustrated in
The nominal tensioning position (which can be different for each printing plate P and each plate cylinder 15, 25), as defined by the position of the adjusting elements 71 to 74, is set and stored as a reference position of the rear clamping bar RC. In this second embodiment, the position of each adjusting element 71 to 74 is in particular stored for subsequent correction and fine adjustment of the position of the rear clamping bar RC.
A suitable measurement of the print register of the tensioned printing plate P* is then carried out once all printing plates have been clamped and tensioned on their corresponding plate cylinders, as in the aforementioned first embodiment, i.e. by printing sample sheets onto which the variations in print register can be assessed and measured. Appropriate corrections of the position of the rear clamping bar RC, which translate into corresponding positional adjustments of the adjusting elements 71 to 74 are derived from these measurements of the print register. In other words, a corrected tensioning position of the rear clamping bar RC corresponding to the target print register is determined.
Before doing any adjustment of the position of the rear clamping bar RC, the printing plate P is however returned to a non-tensioned state, as schematically illustrated in
In contrast to the first embodiment discussed in relation to
Assuming again that the adjustments have been properly made for all printing plates, the printing press shall be correctly set up to achieve the desired target print register. This being said, the above procedure can likewise be repeated by again measuring the print register of the tensioned printing plate P* and determining if corrections are still required, in which case the same procedure as described above in reference to
Various modifications and/or improvements may be made to the above-described embodiments of the invention without departing from the scope of the invention as defined by the annexed claims.
For instance, it may be advantageous to further provide for the determination of a cylinder roundness profile of each plate cylinder 15, 25, which cylinder roundness profile is unique to each plate cylinder 15, 25 and depends on mechanical characteristics of the plate cylinder 15, 25 and of its mounting and driving in the printing press, and to image the printing image on the printing plate P based on (or with consideration of) the cylinder roundness profile of the plate cylinder 15, 25 onto which the printing plate P is to be mounted. Here, it is in particular intended to possibly eliminate eventual non-uniformities in the way the plate cylinder rotates by compensating such non-uniformities during the printing plate origination, i.e. by adjusting the printing image to counteract these non-uniformities.
