Description

The invention relates to a sheet processing machine and a method for operating a sheet processing machine.

Different printing processes are used in printing machines. Non-impact printing processes (NIP = non impact printing) are printing processes that do not require a fixed, physically unchangeable printing form. Such printing processes can produce different print images in each printing process. Examples of non-impact printing processes are ionographic processes, magnetographic processes, thermographic processes, electrophotography, laser printing and in particular inkjet printing processes or inkjet printing processes. Such printing methods usually have at least one imaging device, for example at least one printhead. In the case of the inkjet printing method, such a printhead is designed, for example, as an inkjet printhead and has at least one and preferably a plurality of nozzles, by means of which at least one printing fluid, for example in the form of ink drops, can be transferred to a printing material in a targeted manner. Alternative printing processes have fixed printing forms, for example gravure printing processes, planographic printing processes, offset printing processes and high pressure processes, in particular flexographic printing processes. Depending on the number of copies and / or other requirements such as print quality, a non-impact printing process or a printing process with a fixed printing form may be preferred.

An exact match of a printed image on the front and back of a printing material printed on both sides is called register (DIN 16500-2). In multi-color printing, one speaks of register (DIN 16500-2) when individual print images of different colors are combined to form an image. Suitable measures must also be taken in connection with inkjet printing in order to comply with registers and / or registers. It is particularly important that a relative position between the print head and the printing material is known and / or kept constant. The register is also called the color register. The term register mark is therefore also to be understood below to mean a register mark, that is to say a mark for checking the register or color register.

Sheet printing machines are known. However, conventional transport systems cannot always be used with particularly thick sheets.

Through the DE 10 2017 208 738 A1 a sheet processing machine is known which has a sheet feeder which has a primary acceleration means and a secondary acceleration means.

Through the EP 0 615 941 A1 a sheet-fed printing press with individually driven acceleration means and sheet sensors is known.

Through the US 2002/0180138 A1 a method and an apparatus are known, checks being singularized and marked. A primary accelerator operates more slowly than a secondary accelerator. The checks are decelerated or accelerated as needed using the secondary accelerator to adjust a gap to the previous check. At the same time, the primary accelerator is braked or accelerated in the same ratio.

In the foregoing and below, inks and printing inks, but also primers, lacquers and pasty materials are summarized under the term of a coating agent or printing fluid. Preference is given to pressurized fluids made by a processing machine 01 , especially printing machine 01 , or at least a coating unit 400 ; 600 ; 800 the processing machine 01 , in particular at least one printing unit 600 the printing press 01 , on a substrate 02 , especially a printing material 02 , are transmitted and / or are transferable, preferably in a finely structured form and / or not only over a large area, a preferably visible and / or machine-detectable and / or machine-detectable texture on the substrate 02 , especially printing material 02 , justify. Inks and printing inks are preferably solutions or dispersions of at least one colorant in at least one solvent. Examples of suitable solvents are water and / or organic solvents. Alternatively or additionally, this can be done Pressure fluid can be designed as a pressure fluid that crosslinks under UV light. Inks are relatively low viscosity printing fluids and inks are relatively high viscosity printing fluids. Inks preferably have no binder or relatively little binder, while printing inks preferably contain a relatively large amount of binder and more preferably further auxiliaries. Colorants can be pigments and / or dyes, pigments being insoluble in the application medium, while dyes are soluble in the application medium.

For the sake of simplicity, the expression “printing ink” should be understood in the foregoing and below - if not explicitly differentiated and named accordingly - in the sense of a liquid or at least flowable coloring fluid to be printed in the printing press, which not only refers to the term colloquially “Printing ink” associated with higher-viscosity coloring fluids for use in rotary printing presses, but in addition to these higher-viscosity coloring fluids in particular also low-viscosity coloring fluids such as “inks”, in particular inkjet inks, but also powdery coloring fluids such as B. toner. Thus, in the foregoing and in the following, in particular, also colorless lacquers are meant when it comes to printing fluids and / or inks and / or printing inks. Preference is given to means for a pretreatment (so-called priming or precoating) of the printing material in the foregoing and below 02 meant when talking about printing fluids and / or inks and / or printing inks. As an alternative to the term pressure fluid, the term coating agent is to be understood synonymously.

A processing machine 01 is preferred as a printing press 01 educated. The processing machine 01 is preferred as a sheet processing machine 01 trained, so as a processing machine 01 for processing curved substrates 02 or bow 02 , in particular sheet-shaped printing material 02 . The processing machine 01 is further preferred as a corrugated cardboard sheet processing machine 01 trained, so as a processing machine 01 for processing curved substrates 02 or bow 02 made of corrugated cardboard, in particular sheet-shaped printing material 02 made of corrugated cardboard. The processing machine is further preferred 01 as a sheet printing machine 01 trained, especially as a corrugated sheet printing machine 01 , so as a printing press 01 for coating and / or printing on curved substrates 02 or bow 02 made of corrugated cardboard, in particular sheet-shaped printing material 02 made of corrugated cardboard. For example, the printing press 01 as a non-impact printing press 01 and / or as a printing press operating according to a printing form-bound printing process 01 educated. The printing press is preferred 01 as a non impact printing machine 01 , especially inkjet printing machine 01 and / or as a flexographic printing machine 01 educated.

The arched substrate defined in this way 02 or the bow 02 is for example made of paper or cardboard, ie as paper or cardboard sheets, or by sheets 02 , Sheets or possibly plates made of plastic, cardboard, glass or metal. The substrate is more preferably 02 around corrugated cardboard 02 , especially corrugated cardboard 02 .

Are preferred along the for arch 02 provided transport path at least two, more preferably at least three, even more preferably at least five and even more preferably at least ten vacuum chambers which are separate and / or separable, in particular with respect to the transport direction T. 719 arranged one behind the other, each with at least one suction opening 722 exhibit. Such a separation is to be understood in particular as a fluidic separation. This separation is preferably complete, in particular in such a way that a connection can only be made with a vacuum source at most 733 connected lines and / or through the suction openings 723 of the conveyor belt 718 ; 726 and an ambient atmosphere is present. This covers at least one conveyor belt 718 ; 726 preferably at least one suction opening in its transport section of its circulation route 722 several and more preferably all of these vacuum chambers arranged one behind the other 719 at least partially, in particular up to the respective suction openings 723 . That means a respective conveyor belt 718 ; 726 several vacuum chambers 719 are assigned which influence different areas in succession in the transport direction T. In particular, this is to be distinguished from an arrangement of a plurality of conveyor belts arranged at least partially one behind the other.

The negative pressure is essentially only through those suction openings 723 further conveyed in connection with the respective vacuum chamber 719 stand. In contrast to a large vacuum chamber 719 can have several small vacuum chambers 719 therefore act individually and in particular individually at least partially closed to an environment. On the one hand, this is closed by the conveyor belt 718 ; 726 itself and on the other hand by those Components of arches 02 , the corresponding suction openings 723 cover. If the intake openings are too small 723 is covered, the negative pressure is reduced by incoming ambient air. This could lead to the bow 02 can no longer be kept sufficient. This risk exists with small sheets 02 and / or large distances between sheets 02 and / or a first sheet 02 and / or a final sheet 02 . By dividing it into several vacuum chambers 719 along the transport section, it is ensured that the negative pressure cannot decrease sharply in all areas at the same time. Furthermore, the majority of the vacuum chambers 719 with the same length of the conveyor belt 718 ; 716 for smaller vacuum chambers 719 worried. As a result, every intake opening 723 a larger proportion of a total number of the respective vacuum chamber 719 just assigned suction openings 723 Has. A relatively small number of closed suction openings is therefore sufficient 723 to the negative pressure in the respective negative pressure chamber 719 to keep it at a usable level. This relatively small number can also be done with small sheets 02 and / or large distances between sheets 02 and / or a first sheet 02 and / or a final sheet 02 to reach.

Furthermore, it is not relevant whether in a vacuum chamber 719 the vacuum is too low as long as an arc 02 , which is partly in their sphere of influence, due to the vacuum of another vacuum chamber 719 is held. This is also due to the relatively large number of relatively small vacuum chambers 719 reached. This effect can also be used intentionally to target only the relevant vacuum chambers 719 to ensure a vacuum and insufficiently covered vacuum chambers 719 deliberately at least temporarily to disconnect from a corresponding vacuum source. Overall, the suction effect of the suction vehicle can be 111 ; 117 ; 119 ; 136 ; 211 ; 311 ; 411 ; 417 ; 511 ; 561 ; 611 ; 617 ; 711 ; 811 ; 817 ; 911 ; 1011 vary along the transport direction T.

This is the case regardless of whether the bow 02 can be turned individually or whether the stack 104 is turned over as a whole or whether partial stack 106 be turned. For example, this is true when the bow 02 even before they are assembled into the stack 104 have been edited and / or if the sheets 02 have distinguishable main areas. Such distinguishable main areas result, for example, from production in corrugated cardboard sheets 02 .

A stack holding area 102 is an area 102 , especially space 102 , in which at least during operation of the processing machine 01 at least temporarily that stack 104 is arranged for the subsequent processing of his bow 02 is divided.

A partial stack 103 preferably has more than one arch 02 on. The partial stack separator 103 is, for example, as a partial stacking device 103 and / or designed as a partial stack pulling device.

For example, the stack 104 a multiple bow 02 having a partial stack 106 taken as follows. First, the stack 104 brought to a height in which a top arch 02 of the stack 104 is at an extraction height. Then a partial batch feeder 103 in particular in the transport direction T on the stack 104 to moved until they have at least one bow 02 of the stack 104 comes into contact. This at least one bow 02 for example, the bottom bow 02 of the partial stack 106 . Then the partial stacking device 103 moves and thereby moves the at least one sheet in contact with it 02 and preferably sheets arranged above it 02 . These moving arches 02 are thus together as a partial stack 106 preferably moved in the transport direction T, in particular pushed.

For example, this sub-stack 106 then first the partial stack turning device 101 fed. The partial stack turning device 101 has, for example, at least one means of transport 107 on, preferably as at least one conveyor belt 107 , further preferably at least two conveyor belts 107 is trained. The means of transport 107 is preferably at least partially around a pivot axis 108 pivotable, which is further preferably oriented horizontally and / or orthogonally to the intended transport direction T and / or parallel to the transverse direction A. For example, the at least two conveyor belts 107 move towards each other, especially with respect to the vertical direction V. This allows the partial stack 106 between the two conveyor belts 107 hold, especially pinch, and together with them about the pivot axis 108 pivot, in particular by essentially 180 °. To retract the partial stack 106 in the partial stack turning device 101 and / or for extending the partial stack 106 from the partial stack turning device 101 preferably at least one of the at least two conveyor belts 107 activated. For example, these can each be operated in two directions in order to transport the partial stack 107 regardless of the current swivel position of the means of transport 107 to be able to use.

The substrate feeder 100 points regardless of whether a pile turning device 101 or a partial stack turning device 101 is arranged or not preferably at least one separating device 109 or sheet separation device 109 on. If necessary, there are several separation devices 109 arranged, in particular spaced with respect to the transport direction T and / or one behind the other. A separating device then serves, for example 109 an at least partial separation of sheets 02 and another separating device for a subsequent complete separation of the sheets 02 . This at least one separating device 109 or sheet separation device 109 is for example regarding that for bow 02 provided transport route after the partial stack turning device 101 arranged. If no partial pile turning device 101 is arranged, the partial stack 106 after its generation preferably the same as the separating device 109 or sheet separation device 109 fed. Especially if there is no partial stack separator 103 is arranged and / or no partial stacks 106 are generated, the separating device acts 109 or sheet separation device 109 preferably directly on a respective stack 104 a. For example, this is stack 104 the pile of feeders 104 , which is further preferred in the stack holding area 102 located.

The at least one separating device 109 or sheet separation device 109 isolated the sheets 02 of the stack 104 or partial stacks 106 preferably at least partially. The at least one separating device 109 or sheet separation device 109 isolated the sheets 02 of the stack 104 or partial stacks 106 in at least one embodiment from below and in at least another embodiment from above.

A partial or complete separation of the sheets 02 of the stack 104 or partial stacks 106 In a first embodiment, a sheet separation device takes place from below 109 for example by placing the stack 104 or partial batch 106 on at least one lower translation element 111 , in particular a lower means of transport 111 lying in particular is transported continuously, for example in the direction of transport T, and at least partially against an obstacle 112 that runs just a bottom of the stack 104 or partial stacks 106 lets pass, for example only one arch 02 or two sheets 02 or a few sheets 02 .

The height of the obstacle 112 is preferred to the thickness of the sheets 02 and / or adapted to a desired type of separation. As a height-adjustable obstacle 112 becomes a weir, for example 112 used, preferably as a plate 112 is trained. Shall the bow 02 completely separated, a height below the obstacle is preferably greater than the thickness of the sheets 02 and less than twice the thickness of the sheets 02 . An incomplete separation is sufficient, for example in the form of a shingled stream of arches 02 , the height under the obstacle is preferably larger than twice the thickness of the arch 02 and for example less than four times the thickness of the sheets 02 . For example, the entire stack 104 sporadically or incompletely sporadically, i.e. shingled, especially if no partial stack separator 103 is arranged. However, preference is given the stack 104 by means of the partial stack separator 103 successively in partial stacks 106 divided, which are then transported turned or unturned and then isolated or incomplete, i.e. scaled.

The lower translation element 111 is for example as a suction vehicle 111 , especially as a suction belt 111 and / or suction box belt 111 and / or roller suction system 111 educated.

Setting a phase position in particular means setting a position of the respective arc 02 to understand the electronic leading axis or in particular to understand that the movement of the arc 02 along its transport route and the movement of the subsequent one, the bow 02 transporting component of the sheet printing machine 01 is coordinated so that a predetermined point of the arch 02 , for example its leading edge, that is its leading end, with a predetermined location of the bow 02 transporting component comes into contact. For example, a movement of the bow 02 along its transport path positively and / or negatively accelerated and / or will the bow 02 transporting component in particular before its contact with this sheet 02 accelerated positively and / or negatively.

As an alternative or in addition, the method is preferably distinguished by the fact that the respective sheets 02 by means of the at least one secondary accelerator 119 in terms of its position along the transport path is aligned, for example relative to a preceding sheet 02 and / or relative to a phase position of a component of the sheet processing machine 01 . For example, a transport with a briefly increased speed and / or a transport with a briefly reduced speed can influence this relative position. For example, this accelerates at least one primary acceleration means 136 the sheets already at processing speed vb and / or printing speed vb and the at least one secondary acceleration means 119 only takes over the fine alignment.

For example if as described as the at least one primary accelerator 136 multiple subsets of primary accelerators 136 are arranged, the method is preferably alternatively or additionally characterized in that the subsets of primary accelerating means 136 execute different movements. For example, there is a bottom bow first 02 a stack of accelerators 136 several of the subsets in contact. Then these subsets are preferably accelerated synchronously and drive this arc 02 on. By moving this bow 02 gets this bow 02 with the time with the transport of the sheet 02 related first primary accelerator 136 and subsequently with other primary accelerators 136 out of contact. Preference is given to one sheet 02 related movement cycle of the primary acceleration elements 136 at least that on the transport route of the bow 02 related first primary accelerator 136 braked and / or stopped earlier than on the sheet's transport path 02 related last primary accelerator 136 . This prevents a subsequent sheet 02 with a primary accelerator that is moving at all or is moving too quickly 136 comes into contact, although this subsequent arch 02 should not yet move along the transport route. For example, several or all primary accelerators are used in this way 136 always stopped when a first bow 02 just get out of contact with it and become all primary means of acceleration 136 afterwards in one on a subsequent sheet 02 accelerated movement cycle together again.

For example, if there are several spacers as described 144.1 ; 144.2 are arranged to be movable independently of one another at least with respect to the vertical direction V, the method is preferably distinguished alternatively or additionally by the fact that initially the respective lowest arch 02 of the corresponding stack on the intended transport path of the sheet 02 covered first spacer 144.1 and on one of the intended transport routes of the sheet 02 covered second spacer 144.2 rests without the primary accelerator 136 to touch. These spacers 144.1 ; 144.2 are then in their respective holding positions. The first spacer 144.1 and the second spacer 144.2 are then preferably lowered, creating a contact between the lowest sheet 02 and the primary accelerators 136 arises. The primary accelerator 136 accelerate the sheet along its transport route. Then first the first spacer along the intended transport path 144.1 raised so that the bottom bow first 02 with at least one of the primary accelerators 136 gets out of contact. This prevents a subsequent sheet 02 with a primary accelerator that is moving at all or is moving too quickly 136 comes into contact, although this subsequent arch 02 should not yet move along the transport route. For example, several or all spacers are used in this way 144 ; 144.1 ; 144.2 always raised when a first bow 02 just getting out of contact or threatening to get out of contact and become all spacers 144 ; 144.1 ; 144.2 afterwards in one on a subsequent sheet 02 related movement cycle lowered again together.
