Abstract:
A removable flexible jacket for use in a printing press having a transfer cylinder for transferring a freshly printed substrate. The removable flexible jacket comprises a coated beaded sheet adhered to an plastic sheet, wherein a plurality of images are printed on a downwards facing side of the plastic sheet and visible through the upwards facing side of the coated beaded sheet, wherein the plurality of images provide indications of how to cut the sheet to size to fit different sized transfer cylinders and indications of zones of the flexible jacket to promote selective cleaning of the flexible jacket during use in transferring printed substrates.
Abstract:
A removable flexible jacket for use in a printing press having a transfer cylinder for transferring a freshly printed substrate comprises a sheet of woven fabric, a beaded film sheet coupled to the sheet of woven fabric, and an image disposed between the sheet of woven fabric and the beaded film sheet. The image is visible through the beaded film sheet, and wherein the image divides at least a portion of a surface of the beaded film sheet into a plurality of zones.
