Description
Verfahren und Vorrichtung zur Herstellung von DrucksachenMethod and device for producing printed matter
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren und eine Vorrichtung zur Herstellung von Drucksachen nach dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1 und nach dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 4.The invention relates to a method and a device for producing printed matter according to the preamble of patent claim 1 and according to the preamble of patent claim 4.
Bei den bekannten Verfahren und Vorrichtungen für die Herstellung von Drucksachen wie Formular- und Werbematerialien werden auf eine erste flexible Materialbahn Abdeckelemente aufgebracht und mit dieser mittels eines Klebstoffes verbunden. Die Abdeckelemente werden an einer Schneidestation aus einer zweiten flexiblen Materialbahn durch Querschneiden geschnitten. Um die Abdeckelemente in den gewünschten Abständen auf die erste flexible Materialbahn aufzubringen, ist die Zuführgeschwindigkeit der zweiten Materialbahn zur Schneidestation entsprechend geringer als die Liefergeschwindigkeit der ersten flexiblen Materialbahn. Nach dem Querschneiden werden die Abdeckelemente mit einer der Liefergeschwindigkeit der ersten Materialbahn entsprechenden Geschwindigkeit weitertransportiert und auf die erste Materialbahn aufgebracht .In the known methods and devices for the production of printed matter such as form and advertising materials, cover elements are applied to a first flexible material web and connected to it by means of an adhesive. The cover elements are cut at a cutting station from a second flexible material web by cross cutting. In order to apply the cover elements to the first flexible material web at the desired intervals, the feed speed of the second material web to the cutting station is correspondingly lower than the delivery speed of the first flexible material web. After cross-cutting, the cover elements are transported further at a speed corresponding to the delivery speed of the first material web and applied to the first material web.
Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt nun die Aufgabe zu¬ grunde, ein Verfahren und eine Vorrichtung der vorgenannten Art zu schaffen, mit welchem bzw. mit welcher Drucksachen wie Formular- und Werbematerialien mit auf einer Materialbahn aufgebrachten Abdeckelementen mit hoher Qualität auch bei hohen Arbeitsgeschwin¬ digkeiten hergestellt werden können.The present invention is based on the object of providing a method and a device of the aforementioned type with which or with which printed matter such as form and advertising materials with cover elements applied to a material web are produced with high quality, even at high working speeds can be.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch das Verfahren mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 1 und durch die Vorrichtung mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 4 gelöst . Die Erfindung beruht auf der Erkenntnis, dass die Zuführung der Abdeckelemente zur ersten Materialbahn mit einer Geschwindigkeit erfolgen soll, die geringer ist als die Liefergeschwindigkeit der ersten Materialbahn. Die Abdeckelemente werden nach dem Zusammenbringen mit der ersten Materialbahn sehr rasch von der langsameren zweiten Liefergeschwindigkeit auf die schnellere Liefergeschwindigkeit der ersten Materialbahn beschleunigt. Dadurch wird ein lagegenaues Aufkleben der Abdeckelemente auf die erste Materialbahn erreicht.This object is achieved by the method with the features of claim 1 and by the device with the features of claim 4. The invention is based on the knowledge that the cover elements should be fed to the first material web at a speed which is lower than the delivery speed of the first material web. After being brought together with the first material web, the cover elements are accelerated very quickly from the slower second delivery speed to the faster delivery speed of the first material web. This ensures that the cover elements are adhered to the first material web in a precise position.
Die Abdeckelemente werden bevorzugt in einer Schneidestation von einer zweiten Materialbahn getrennt, können jedoch auch als Aufkleber auf eine Trägerbahn aufgebracht sein, welche in einer Ablösestation von dieser abgelöst und einem weiteren Transportmittel übergeben werden.The cover elements are preferably separated from a second material web in a cutting station, but can also be applied as a sticker to a carrier web, which are removed from this in a detachment station and transferred to another means of transport.
Als Transportmittel hat sich eine Walze bewährt, an deren Mantelfläche die Abdeckelemente vorzugsweise durch Unterdruck lösbar gehalten werden. Andererseits kann anstelle der Walze auch eine Transportbandanordnung vorgesehen sein, an der die Abdeckelemente lösbar gehalten sind.A roller has proven itself as a means of transport, on the lateral surface of which the cover elements are preferably held releasably by negative pressure. On the other hand, instead of the roller, a conveyor belt arrangement can also be provided, on which the cover elements are detachably held.
Als Schneidestation wird vorzugsweise ein Schneidzylinder mit mindestens einem Schneidmesser eingesetzt, das entweder mit einem ortsfesten Gegenmesser oder mit der Walze zusammenwirkt . Mit Vorteil ist die Umlaufgeschwindigkeit des Schneidmessers etwas grösser als die Fördergeschwindigkeit der Walze.A cutting cylinder with at least one cutting knife is preferably used as the cutting station, which interacts either with a stationary counter knife or with the roller. The rotational speed of the cutting knife is advantageously somewhat greater than the conveying speed of the roller.
Weitere Vorteile ergeben sich aus den abhängigen Patent¬ ansprüchen und aus der nachfolgenden Beschreibung, in welcher die Erfindung anhand von in schematischen Zeichnungen dargestellten Ausführungsbeispielen näher erläutert wird. Es zeigt: Fig. 1 eine erste Vorrichtung zur Herstellung von Drucksachen,Further advantages result from the dependent patent claims and from the following description, in which the invention is explained in more detail with reference to exemplary embodiments shown in schematic drawings. It shows: 1 shows a first device for producing printed matter,
Fig. 2 eine zweite Vorrichtung zur Herstellung von Drucksachen, undFig. 2 shows a second device for producing printed matter, and
Fig. 3 eine dritte Vorrichtung zur Herstellung von Drucksachen.Fig. 3 shows a third device for the production of printed matter.
In den Figuren sind jeweils für dieselben Elemente dieselben Bezugszeichen verwendet und es gelten erstmalige Erklärungen zu den Elementen für alle Figuren, wenn nicht ausdrücklich anders erwähnt.In the figures, the same reference numerals are used for the same elements, and first-time explanations for the elements apply to all figures, unless expressly stated otherwise.
In Figur 1 ist rein schematisch eine Herstel¬ lungsmaschine für Drucksachen wie Formular- und Werbematerialien dargestellt. Eine erste flexible Materialbahn 1, beispielsweise aus Papier oder dünnem Karton, wird mit einer ersten Liefergeschwindigkeit Vx kontinuierlich geliefert und von einer angetriebenen Förderwalze 2 weitertransportiert. Eine zweite flexible Materialbahn 3 wird mit einer Zuführgeschwindigkeit V% geliefert, in einer Klebstoffauftrageinheit 4 in Bewegungsrichtung gesehen hintereinander in re- gelmässigen Abständen mit einem Klebstoffauftrag versehen und über z.B. zwei Führungsrollen 5 und 6 einer Saugwalze 7 zugeführt. Die Saugwalze 7 ist mit Saugöffnungen versehen, die in zur Saugwalzenachse parallelen Reihen angeordnet sind und in die Man- telflache 8 der Saugwalze 7 münden. Die Saugöffnungen werden periodisch an eine hier nicht dargestellte Unterdruckquelle angeschlossen. Kurz nach der Übergabe der zweiten flexiblen Materialbahn 3 auf die Saugwalze 7 ist eine Schneidestation 10 vorgesehen, die einen Schneidzylinder 11 mit z.B. vier äquidistanten Schneidmessern 12 aufweist, welche mit der Saugwalze 7 als Gegenzylinder zusammenwirken. Die Schneidmesser 12 können in Umlaufrichtung 13 zeigend gegenüber der Radialrichtung schräggestellt sein. Die kontinuierliche Umlaufgeschwindigkeit U]_ der Saugwalze 7 entspricht in etwa der Zuführgeschwindigkeit Vi der zweiten Materialbahn 3, während die Umlaufgeschwindigkeit U2 des Schneidzylinders 11 gleich oder leicht höher als die Umlaufgeschwindigkeit Ui der Saugwalze 7 ist. Die Umlaufgeschwindigkeiten U± und U2 des Schneidzylinders 11 und der Walze 7 werden von einer elektronischen Steuereinheit 14 gesteuert. Beim Querschneiden der zweiten Materialbahn 3 entstehen streifenförmige Abdeckelemente oder Etiketten 15, die entweder bei gleichen Umlaufgeschwindigkeiten U^ und U2 aneinander anstossen oder bei im Vergleich zur Zuführgeschwindigkeit V% der zweiten Materialbahn 3 höheren Umlaufgeschwindigkeit U]_ der Saugwalze 7 mit einem kleinen Abstand 16 voneinander auf der Saugwalze 7 festgehalten und von dieser weitergefördert werden. Diese jeweils den Klebstoffauftrag aufweisenden Abdeckelemente 15 werden somit durch die Saugwalze 7 mit einer zweiten Liefergeschwindigkeit V2, die der Um¬ laufgeschwindigkeit Ui der Saugwalze 7 entspricht, kontinuierlich der ersten flexiblen Materialbahn 1 zugeführt und mit dieser zusammengebracht. Mittels des Klebstoffes werden die Abdeckelemente 15 im Bereich des Spaltes 17 zwischen der Förderwalze 2 und der Saugwalze 7 mit der ersten flexiblen Materialbahn 1 fest verbunden und von dieser mit der ersten Liefergeschwindigkeit Vη_ weitergefördert. Um eine sofortige Verbindung zwischen der ersten Materialbahn 1 und dem jeweiligen Abdeck- element 15 bei deren Zusammentreffen zu erhalten, kann ein gesteuert auf- und abbewegbares Anpresselement 18, z.B. ein Anpressbalken oder eine Anpresswalze, im Be¬ reich des Spaltes 17 vorgesehen sein. Sobald das Abdeck¬ element 15 von der ersten Materialbahn 1 erfasst und mit der wesentlich höheren ersten Liefergeschwindigkeit V-j_ weitertransportiert wird, wird das Abdeckelement 15 von der langsamer drehenden Saugwalze 7 freigegeben. Somit werden die Abdeckelemente 15 lagerichtig auf die erste Materialbahn 1 aufgeklebt und es wird ein vorgegebener Abstand 19 zwischen den Abdeckelementen 15 auf der ersten flexiblen Materialbahn 1 eingehalten.A production machine for printed matters such as form and advertising materials is shown purely schematically in FIG. A first flexible material web 1, for example made of paper or thin cardboard, is delivered continuously at a first delivery speed V x and transported on by a driven conveyor roller 2. A second flexible material web 3 is supplied with a feed speed V%, in an adhesive application unit 4, viewed in the direction of movement, successively provided with an adhesive application at regular intervals and supplied to a suction roller 7 via, for example, two guide rollers 5 and 6. The suction roller 7 is provided with suction openings, which are arranged in rows parallel to the axis of the suction roller and open into the jacket surface 8 of the suction roller 7. The suction openings are periodically connected to a vacuum source, not shown here. Shortly after the transfer of the second flexible material web 3 to the suction roll 7, a cutting station 10 is provided which has a cutting cylinder 11 with, for example, four equidistant cutting knives 12, which cooperate with the suction roll 7 as a counter cylinder. The cutting knife 12 can point in the circumferential direction 13 opposite Radial be inclined. The continuous rotation speed U] _ of the suction roll 7 corresponds approximately to the feed speed Vi of the second material web 3, while the rotation speed U2 of the cutting cylinder 11 is equal to or slightly higher than the rotation speed Ui of the suction roll 7. The rotational speeds U ± and U2 of the cutting cylinder 11 and the roller 7 are controlled by an electronic control unit 14. When cross-cutting the second material web 3, strip-shaped cover elements or labels 15 are formed, which either abut each other at the same circulation speeds U ^ and U2 or when the suction roller 7 is at a small distance 16 from one another at a higher circulation speed U ] _ compared to the feed speed V% of the second material web 3 are held on the suction roller 7 and conveyed by it. These cover elements 15 each having the adhesive application are thus continuously fed to the first flexible material web 1 by the suction roller 7 at a second delivery speed V2, which corresponds to the rotational speed Ui of the suction roller 7, and brought together with the latter. By means of the adhesive, the cover elements 15 are firmly connected to the first flexible material web 1 in the area of the gap 17 between the conveying roller 2 and the suction roller 7 and are conveyed further by this at the first delivery speed Vη_. In order to obtain an immediate connection between the first material web 1 and the respective cover element 15 when they meet, a pressure element 18 that can be moved up and down in a controlled manner, for example a pressure bar or a pressure roller, can be provided in the area of the gap 17. Once the element is detected Abdeck¬ 15 of the first material web 1 and further transported with the significantly higher first feed speed V- j _, the cover 15 is released from the more slowly rotating vacuum roll. 7 Thus, the cover elements 15 are in the correct position on the first Material web 1 glued on and a predetermined distance 19 between the cover elements 15 on the first flexible material web 1 is maintained.
In Figur 2 ist eine zweite Ausführungsform der Herstel¬ lungsmaschine dargestellt. Hier ist anstelle einer Saug¬ walze 7 eine Transportbandanordnung 20 mit einem gelochten Transportband 21 vorgesehen, welches über eine grosse angetriebene Umlenkwalze 22 und zwei kleinere Umlenkwalzen 23 und 24 in einer dreieckförmigen Umlaufbahn geführt und mit der Umlaufgeschwindigkeit U^ angetrieben wird. Das Transportband 21 wird entlang seinem förderwirksamen Bereich auf nicht näher dargestellte Weise mit einem Unterdruck beaufschlagt. Die Schneidestation 10 ist der Transportbandanordnung 20 vorgelagert. Der Schneidzylinder 11 weist hier ein einziges Schneidmesser 12 auf, das mit einem ortsfest angeordneten Gegenmesser 26 zusammenwirkt. Die abgetrennten Abdeckelemente 15 werden vom Transportband 21 übernommen und mit der zweiten Liefergeschwindigkeit V2 kontinuierlich weitergefördert. Durch die etwas höhere Umlaufgeschwindigkeit U^ des Transportbandes 21 gegenüber der Zuführgeschwindigkeit V2 der zweiten flexiblen Materialbahn 3 kann auch hier ein Abstand 16 zwischen den vom Transportband 21 festgehaltenen Abdeck¬ elementen 15 erzeugt werden.FIG. 2 shows a second embodiment of the manufacturing machine. Here, instead of a suction roller 7, a conveyor belt arrangement 20 with a perforated conveyor belt 21 is provided, which is guided in a triangular orbit via a large driven deflection roller 22 and two smaller deflection rollers 23 and 24 and is driven at the revolution speed U ^. A negative pressure is applied to the conveyor belt 21 along its effective area in a manner not shown. The cutting station 10 is upstream of the conveyor belt arrangement 20. The cutting cylinder 11 here has a single cutting knife 12 which interacts with a stationary counter knife 26. The separated cover elements 15 are taken over by the conveyor belt 21 and continuously conveyed at the second delivery speed V 2 . Due to the somewhat higher rotational speed U ^ of the conveyor belt 21 compared to the feed speed V2 of the second flexible material web 3, a distance 16 can also be generated here between the cover elements 15 held by the conveyor belt 21.
Da die Zuführgeschwindigkeit V2 der zweiten MaterialbahnBecause the feed speed V2 of the second material web
3 und die zweite Liefergeschwindigkeit V2 der Abdeckelemente 15 bei den Ausführungen der Figuren 1 und3 and the second delivery speed V2 of the cover elements 15 in the embodiments of Figures 1 and
2 in etwa gleich und wesentlich geringer als die Liefergeschwindigkeit Vη_ der ersten Materialbahn 1 sind, ergibt sich beim Querschneiden der zweiten Materialbahn2 are approximately the same and significantly lower than the delivery speed Vη_ of the first material web 1, results from the cross cutting of the second material web
3 stets eine saubere Schnittkante. Die zweite Materialbahn 3 wird nämlich nicht wie bei den herkömmlichen Herstellungsmaschinen im Bereich der Schneidestation 10 beschleunigt, so dass das Schneid- messer 12 keine Reisswirkung auf die zweite Materialbahn 3 ausübt.3 always a clean cutting edge. The second material web 3 is namely not accelerated in the region of the cutting station 10 as in the conventional production machines, so that the cutting knife 12 has no tear effect on the second material web 3.
In Figur 3 ist eine weitere Ausführungsform der Herstel- lungsmaschine dargestellt, bei welcher die Abdeckelemente 15 lösbar auf eine Trägerbahn 29 aus einem flexiblen Material aufgebracht sind und in einer Ablösestation 30 von der Trägerbahn 29 abgeschält werden. Dazu ist anstelle des Schneidzylinders 11 ein Umlenkelement 31 vorgesehen, um welches die Trägerbahn 29 in einem spitzen Winkel umgelenkt und anschliessend z.B. auf einer Aufwickelwalze 32 aufgerollt wird. Anstelle der Aufwickelwalze 32 kann auch ein Förderwalzenpaar vorgesehen sein, das die Trägerbahn 29 aus der Ablösestation wegfördert. Beim Umlenken der Trägerbahn 29 um das Umlenkelement 31 lösen sich die Abdeckelemente 15 von der Trägerbahn 29 ab und werden von der Saugwalze 7 übernommen, gehalten und mit der Liefergeschwindigkeit V2 weitergefördert. In diesem Fall sind die Abdeckelemente 15 schon mit einem geringen Abstand zueinander auf die Trägerbahn 29 aufgebracht. Wenn die Umlaufgeschwindigkeit U]_ der Saugwalze 7 geringer ist als die Zuführgeschwindigkeit V^ der mit den Abdeckelementen 15 versehenen Trägerbahn 29, wird der Abstand 16 der Abdeckelemente 15 auf der Mantel¬ fläche 8 der Saugwalze 7 geringer, d.h. sie kommen näher zueinander zu liegen. Umgekehrt, wenn die Umlaufgeschwindigkeit Uι_ höher ist, liegen die Abdeck¬ elemente 15 weiter auseinander auf der Mantelfläche 8 der Saugwalze 7. Somit lassen sich die Abstände 16 zwischen den Abdeckelementen 15 vor dem Heranführen an die erste flexible Materialbahn 1 genau einstellen.FIG. 3 shows a further embodiment of the production machine in which the cover elements 15 are releasably applied to a carrier web 29 made of a flexible material and are peeled off from the carrier web 29 in a detachment station 30. For this purpose, instead of the cutting cylinder 11, a deflection element 31 is provided, around which the carrier web 29 is deflected at an acute angle and then, e.g. is rolled up on a take-up roller 32. Instead of the winding roller 32, a pair of conveying rollers can also be provided, which conveys the carrier web 29 away from the detaching station. When the carrier web 29 is deflected around the deflection element 31, the cover elements 15 detach from the carrier web 29 and are taken over by the suction roller 7, held and conveyed further at the delivery speed V2. In this case, the cover elements 15 are already applied to the carrier web 29 at a short distance from one another. If the rotational speed U] _ of the suction roll 7 is lower than the feed speed V ^ of the carrier web 29 provided with the cover elements 15, the distance 16 of the cover elements 15 on the outer surface 8 of the suction roll 7 becomes smaller, i.e. they come closer to each other. Conversely, if the rotational speed Uι_ is higher, the covering elements 15 lie further apart on the lateral surface 8 of the suction roller 7. Thus, the distances 16 between the covering elements 15 can be set precisely before they are brought up to the first flexible material web 1.
Es versteht sich, dass in der Ausführung der Figur 3 an- stelle einer Saugwalze 7 ebenfalls die Transportbandanordnung 20 gemäss Figur 2 eingesetzt werden kann. Ferner kann in allen Ausführungsformen der Figuren 1 bis 3 anstelle eines rotierenden Schneidmessers 12 auch ein translatorisch auf- und abbewegbares Schneidmesser verwendet werden, das mit einem ortsfesten Gegenmesser in der Art einer Schere zusammenwirkt. Zur Erhöhung der Arbeitsgeschwindigkeit können auch mehrere, zueinander parallel angeordnete und unabhängig voneinander auf- und abbewegbare Schneidmesser vorsehen sein.It goes without saying that in the embodiment of FIG. 3, instead of a suction roller 7, the conveyor belt arrangement 20 according to FIG. 2 can also be used. Furthermore, in all embodiments of FIGS. 1 to 3, instead of a rotating cutting knife 12, a cutting knife which can be moved up and down and which interacts with a stationary counter knife in the manner of a pair of scissors can also be used. To increase the working speed, it is also possible to provide a plurality of cutting knives which are arranged parallel to one another and can be moved up and down independently of one another.
Des weiteren können anstelle durch Unterdruck die Abdeckelemente 15 auch durch elektrostatische Kräfte auf der Walze 7 oder auf dem Transportband 21 gehalten werden.Furthermore, the cover elements 15 can also be held on the roller 7 or on the conveyor belt 21 by electrostatic forces instead of by negative pressure.
Es ist ebenfallε möglich, dass die erste flexible Materialbahn 1 in Bewegungsrichtung gesehen hintereinander in vorgegebenen Abständen mit einem Klebstoffauftrag versehen wird, auf welche dann die Abdeckelemente 15, welche keinen Klebstoff aufweisen, aufgebracht werden. Die Klebstoffauftrageinheit 4 ist dann an der ersten flexiblen Materialbahn 1 in Bewegungsrichtung gesehen vor der Förderwalze 2 und vor der Saugwalze 7 (vgl. Fig. 1) oder der Transportbandanordung 20 (vgl. Fig. 2) vorgesehen.It is also possible for the first flexible material web 1, viewed in the direction of movement, to be successively provided with an adhesive at predetermined intervals, to which the cover elements 15, which have no adhesive, are then applied. The adhesive application unit 4 is then provided on the first flexible material web 1, viewed in the direction of movement, in front of the conveyor roller 2 and in front of the suction roller 7 (cf. FIG. 1) or the conveyor belt arrangement 20 (cf. FIG. 2).
Das lagerichtige Aufbringen der Abdeckelemente 15 auf die erste flexible Materialbahn 1 ist ferner vom Winkel abhängig, mit welchem die Abdeckelemente 15 auf die Materialbahn 1 auftreffen. Falls erforderlich kann dieser Winkel beispielsweise durch eine grossere Saugwalze 7 verringert werden, um den vorlaufenden Bereich der Abdeckelemente 15 besser und schneller auf die erste Materialbahn 1 zu kleben.The correct application of the cover elements 15 to the first flexible material web 1 is also dependent on the angle at which the cover elements 15 strike the material web 1. If necessary, this angle can be reduced, for example, by a larger suction roller 7 in order to better and faster stick the leading area of the cover elements 15 onto the first material web 1.
Bei der Ausführungsform gemäss Fig. 1 kann gleich wie in Fig. 2 gezeigt der Schneidzylinder 11 mit nur einem Schneidmesser 12 ausgerüstet sein. Schneidzylinder 11 mit nur einem Schneidmesser 12 haben den Vorteil, dass die Umstellung auf andere Formatgrössen der Abdeckelemente 15, d.h. auf andere Abmessungen der letzteren in Zuführrichtung der Materialbahn 3, auf einfache Weise erfolgen kann. Dies ist nämlich möglich durch eine Aenderung der Umlaufgeschwindigkeit U2 des Schneidzylinders 11 im Vergleich zur Zuführgeschwindigkeit Vz der Materialbahn 3, ohne Umstellung von Schneidmessern 12. In the embodiment according to FIG. 1, the cutting cylinder 11 can be equipped with only one cutting knife 12, as shown in FIG. 2. Cutting cylinders 11 with only one cutting knife 12 have the advantage that the changeover to other format sizes of the cover elements 15, ie to other dimensions of the latter in the feed direction of the material web 3, can be carried out in a simple manner. This is in fact possible by changing the rotational speed U 2 of the cutting cylinder 11 compared to the feed speed V z of the material web 3 without changing the cutting knives 12.
