    摘要: The invention relates to a method for operating an engraving member in an electronic engraving machine to engrave printing forms, especially printing cylinders for intaglio printing. A burin of the engraving member is controlled by an engraving signal and engraves a sequence of cups arranged in a gravure screen in the rotating printing cylinder. The engraving signal is formed by superimposing the image signal representing the tonalities to be engraved. In order to obtain good quality engraving, the engraving member is heated to a temperature that is close to operating temperature before engraving starts and/or during an interruption of engraving. To this end, the engraving member is impinged upon by a periodic signal whose frequency is preferably located inside the ultrasonic range in order to avoid noise disturbances.

    摘要: The invention relates to a method for positioning engraving organs (3) in an electronic engraving machine for rotogravure printing cylinder (1) engraving wherein at least two adjacent lying engraving areas of selected widths (SB) are engraved with an engraving organ (3) respectively assigned thereto. Axial reference positions (RP) are selected for the engraving organs (3), whose axial distances to each other correspond to the selected widths (SB) of the engraving areas (SB) that are to be engraved. An electronic position measuring device (20,21,22), consisting essentially of a video camera (21) and an image evaluation level (22), is successively placed on the axial reference positions (RP). At each reference position, the axial divergence of the tip of the burin pertaining to the appropriate engraving organ (3) or the divergence of at least one cup which is test engraved by the engraving organ (3) from the reference position (RP) is determined using the position measuring device (20,21,22). The engraving organs (3) are then automatically shifted according to the chosen divergences and placed exactly on the reference positions (RP).

    摘要: The invention relates to a method for making and evaluating a sample cut in an electronic engraving machine for engraving printing cylinders. An engraving control signal for guiding the burin of a graving element is formed from engraving data representing the predetermined tonalities that are to be engraved. The burin cuts a series of cups, arranged in the gravure screen, in the printing cylinder. The geometrical parameters of the cups determine the actual engraved tone values. During the trial engraving, trial cups (33) are engraved and a video image (35) of them is made. In accordance with the screen parameters of the gravure screen, measuring points (40) are fixed in the video image (35), as distances to a selected reference point (41). The geometric parameters of the trial cups (33) such as transverse diagonal, longitudinal diagonal, width of the engraving channel, width of the connecting material and cup surface are measured in the video image (35) at the measuring points (40), and compared to the corresponding geometric parameters of the cups representing the predetermined tone values. Adjustment values are deduced from this comparison, which are used to calibrate the engraving control signal in such a way that the actual tone values correspond to the predetermined tone values.

    摘要: An error detection apparatus and method for use with engravers, suc has gravure engravers. An error value E corresponding to the difference between a set of predetermined setup parameters and actual measurement of a portion of an engraved area on the cylinder is determined. The error value E is then used to adjust the engraver to engrave an actual cut or etch in accordance with the set of predetermined setup parameters. Advantageously, an error detection and correction system is suitable for providing a closed-loop system for engraving a cylinder. The apparatus and method may be used during initial setup or during normal operation of the engraver. Other features include an autofocus routine to facilitate the autofocus procedure. Also, image processing is further enhanced by gap filling, discontinuity removal, and light calibration methods which may be used alone, in combination with each other, or in combination with the automatic focus system and/or automatic shoe system. Other embodiments of the invention illustrate the use of a polarizing element to polarize reflected light, as well as light directed to a surface of the cylinder prior to reflection, and the use of a light emitting diode (LED) for illuminating the surface of the cylinder. The features of the improved optic system facilitate reducing or eliminating image noise, such as glare, 'blooming', inconsistent illumination, and enhances the quality of the image captured by a CCD array associated with the camera used in the imager or imaging system.

    摘要: The invention relates to a method for engraving screened printing cylinders by means of an engraving member (4) in an electronic engraving machine. An engraving control signal (GS) controlling said engraving member (4) is generated by superimposing a visual signal (B), representing the tone values to be reproduced, and a periodic screen signal (R) in order to produce an engraving screen. The engraving member (4) engraves a series of cup-shapes in a rotating printing cylinder (1) that are arranged in the engraving screen. The engraving member (4) performs a forward advance movement in the direction of this axis of the printing cylinder (1) in order to engrave the surface of the cup-shapes. Each printing colour in each set of printing colours is assigned its own specific engraving screen which is chosen in such a way that the moiré effects that occur during printing with other colours are minimized. In order to minimize the disruptive moiré effects even further at least one engraving screen (24) is engraved on the printing cylinder (1) in an offset position in relation to the other engraving screens of a set of colours in the direction of the forward advance movement of the engraving member (4) and/or in the direction of the periphery of the printing cylinder.

    摘要: The invention relates to a method and apparatus for engraving the surface of a gravure printing cylinder with a pattern adapted to be repetitively printed with a joint (J) between the adjacent printed patterns being less visible to the human eye. The method includes scanning a copy (C) of a pattern having selected opposite ends adapted to form a joint on the gravure printing cylinder, and electronically sensing the copy density at two locations (Ll, L2), on the pattern copy (C) adjacent the opposite ends. The densities at the different locations are electronically compared, and a correction factor based upon the comparison is electronically determined. Generally circumferentially extending rows of peripherally spaced cells are engraved within the cylinder surface according to the pattern, and the depth of the engraved cells corresponding to the opposite ends of the copy is adjusted according to the correction factor to correct for unbalance in copy density at the two locations (L1, L2) on the pattern copy (C).
