Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method and a device for producing printed products which are printed by different methods.
  • Printing devices are known per se and extensively in use. In this case, printing documents, so paper, cardboard, films and der Eisene as sheet or roll goods through roller / cylinder column led to inking units over.
  • inking units each ink is transferred to the surface of the printing substrate by different transfer methods. These methods include, for example, offset printing, screen printing, and the like.
  • foil printing processes from the prior art are known per se. It is common to all known film printing method that is applied to a print substrate, such as paper, cardboard or film as sheet or roll goods, a film partially under pressure and permanently fixed. As printing foils are in particular films with gold or Sibergianz, z. As so-called transfer films, for use, but also printing films in various colors with high gloss or silk gloss surfaces are known. WO 93/24332 shows such a film printing method.
  • the application of the printing film on the substrate is usually done with the technique of stamping foil printing.
  • This printing technique resembles in its basic form a high-pressure process and is similar in that respect the book printing.
  • the key common feature is that the printing parts of the printing form are higher than the surrounding non-printing parts.
  • the printing medium passing from the printing film to the substrate during printing consists of a printing film layer in the form of a thin, multi-layered dry film, which is detachably fastened on a mostly transparent carrier film by means of a separating layer.
  • the printing film layer in turn has a two-layer structure with a silver-colored aluminum vaporization and a mostly colored lacquer layer. This double printing film layer is finally provided with a tacky when heated resin coating.
  • the printing film is passed together with the substrate to be printed by the printing unit, wherein the printing film layer is detached from the carrier film and transferred to the substrate by the contact pressure of the heated printing form at the determined by the raised elements of the printing form. Due to the heat transferred from the printing form, on the one hand, the separating layer evaporates between the carrier film and the printing film layer, so that the latter is easily detached from the carrier film. On the other hand, under the action of heat, the synthetic resin layer is activated from the dry to a sticky state, so that the synthetic resin layer forms an adhesive layer between the base and the printing film layer. As a result, the printed foil layer, for example in the form of a gold-shining layer, adheres permanently to the substrate at the points predetermined by the printing form.
  • a disadvantage of this known film printing method that the production and installation of the printing form, d. H. cliché, requires a very long preparation and set-up time. Since the preparation and setup time can make up almost half of the total production time, the known film printing process is overall very time consuming and thus associated with high production costs. In addition, warming are common, sometimes over 200 ° C, resulting in very high energy costs.
  • the substrate provided for the film printing is provided with a partial adhesive layer, for example an adhesive layer, which then takes over the transfer layer at the relevant points of the transfer film within the printing unit. Since the adhesive layer is already on the substrate prior to the actual printing process, the existing in the known transfer films resin layer can be omitted. Finally, a heating of the printing surface is no longer necessary because with the elimination of the resin layer on the transfer film and their heating in order to bring about the adhesive effect deleted.
  • the pad with the transfer layer thereon is subjected to a contact pressure, which substantially exceeds the pressure during the film support.
  • Both the intermediate storage of provided with a transfer layer pad and the additional operation of supplying the pad in a further processing device is not only time consuming, but also costly, because it is necessary to work in perfect fit, so in the other than separately to be performed processing exactly matched to both the pad and on the substrate applied to the transfer layer.
  • pretreated by means of film to be coated printing documents z. B. pre-printed or pre-stamped.

  • the inventive method is characterized by its in-line process implementation.

It is therefore no longer necessary, in contrast to the prior art, to temporarily store the pad provided with a film or transfer layer at a separate location in order then to carry out additional processing of the pad in a further operation.
  • the method according to the invention allows a continuous process implementation, the result of which is a substrate coated with a transfer film or a transfer layer and additionally provided with a structure and / or embossing.

  • the implementation of the film support of the transfer film 10 within the printing unit is in the left part of Fig. 5 shown.
  • the total of only about 12 microns thick transfer film 10 is composed of a total of three layers.
  • the innermost layer resting directly on the pressure roller 12 is designed as a carrier film 18 on which a transfer layer 20 is arranged via a separating layer 19 serving as an adhesive backing.
  • the transfer layer 20 can therefore be relatively easily detached from the carrier film 18.
  • the transfer layer 20 in turn is usually constructed in two layers and consists of a thin, vapor-deposited aluminum layer and an example colored paint layer. However, this two-layered structure of the transfer layer 20 is not explicitly shown in the drawing.
  • the substrate 2 to be printed is guided at the circumferential speed of the printing roller 12 or counter roller 15 through the printing nip formed between these two rollers, the transfer film 10 entrained on the cloth surface of the printing cylinder 12 being partially transferred to the substrate 2.
  • This transfer takes place exclusively at those points of the pad 2, which have been provided with the adhesive layer 3 within the preceding adhesive work. It is also not the transfer sheet 10 as a whole transferred to the base 2, but only the slightly detachable from the carrier sheet 18 transfer layer 20.
  • the transfer layer 20 is formed for example as a gold foil, wherein the aluminum layer produces the metallizing effect, while the gold coloration is generated by the yellow to ocher colored lacquer layer.
  • the pad 2 each consists of a 4x5 fields having sheet 21 for purposes of illustration, the sheet 21 with five different, provided in each sheet 21 four times repeated print motifs 22.
  • the signatures 21 are shown in the state before passing through the printing unit with the pressure roller 12.
  • the printed sheet 21 is already provided with the partial adhesive layer 3.
  • the signatures 21 are provided in the region of the partial adhesive layers 3 with the transfer layer 20 and thus form the finished printed motifs 22.
  • the transfer film 10 resting against the printing roller 12 lacks the transfer layer 20, as in the right part of the Fig. 5 is shown.
  • transfer sheet 10 which extends over almost the entire width of the composite of pressure roller 12 and counter-roller 15 transfer calender
  • a plurality of individual webs transfer film can also be used. This is recommended in particular when the print motifs 22 are distributed only over part of the web width.
  • print motifs 22 can, as shown in the FIGS. 1 to 3 be described above, be formed embossed, that is, with respect to the plane of the pad 2 be formed protruding or indented.
  • the described embodiments are illustrative only and not limiting.
  • the units of the invention may vary in order, frequency of change between conventional printing and film transfer, and the like.
  • the use of a calender following the film transfer is optional. This is only necessary if, for example, a floating of the film on adhesive must be feared or other post-processing is required.
