Abstract:
Method and apparatus for automatically straightening elongated and at least partly rotationally symmetrical workpieces by applying a sequence of straightening strokes to a workpiece at each of a plurality of straightening stations to counteract a deformation until the measured instantaneous values of the deformation fall within a predetermined deformation tolerance. The depth of the straightening strokes is determined by the difference between the measured instantaneous values of the deformation and the mean of the maximum and minimum values of the deformation.
Abstract:
Method and apparatus for automatically straightening elongated and at least partly rotationally symmetrical workpieces by applying a sequence of straightening strokes to a workpiece at one straightening station to counteract a deformation until the measured instantaneous values of the deformation fall within a predetermined deformation tolerance. The depth of the straightening strokes is determined by the difference between the measured instantaneous values of the deformation and the mean of the maximum and minimum values of the deformation.
Abstract:
For transferring an image-forming layer from a transfer foil a printing sheet, an adhesive layer is first applied to the sheet to be printed. The transfer foil provided with the image-forming layer is guided past the printing sheet under pressure, in a coating module (2), such that the image-forming layer adheres to the adhesive and an image is created. The present invention provides a foil transfer device that includes a substrate on the press cylinder that has a reduced adhesiveness relative to the transfer foil.
Abstract:
A coating system for supplying a coating medium to sheet material in a printing press. The coating system includes a tempering system operable for influencing the temperature of both a coating medium processed through the applicator system and rinsing mediums supplied to the applicator system for cleaning the system. The tempering system includes and intermediate container connected to the metering system of the applicator system, a first storage container connected to the intermediate container for containing a stored quantity of coating medium, and a second storage or discharge container connected to the intermediate container for a rinsing medium. The intermediate container includes a heat exchanger such that upon selected connection of either the first or second storage containers to the intermediate container, the cleaning medium or the rinsing medium can be individually tempered for optimum processing.
