    摘要: A plate imaging apparatus and method for imaging a seamless printing member preferably loaded onto a rotating plate cylinder. The plate imaging apparatus moves a writing head in fixed increments in an axial direction relative to the plate cylinder. With the writing head fixed at a first axial position, the imaging apparatus causes a circumferential swath to be imaged onto the seamless printing member commencing from a first starting point. With the plate cylinder still rotating, the imaging apparatus then steps the writing head to the next axial position, thereby defining a second starting point once the writing head is ready to resume imaging that is offset from the first starting point. The imaging apparatus then causes a second circumferential swath to be imaged onto the seamless printing member commencing from the second starting point.

    摘要: Electrode-driver circuits for use with non-contact spark-discharge imaging systems. The circuits rapidly produce short-duration, high-voltage pulses that cause the discharge of a spark to the surface of a printing plate; they feature short rise times, rapid operation and clean decays, thereby facilitating high-speed spark-discharge imaging.

    摘要: A persistent ionization plasma generator is described that forms a plasma in a cavity that persists for a time after termination of the exciting RF electric field. The plasma generator includes a RF cavity that is in fluid communication with a source of ionizing gas. The RF cavity can be at substantially atmospheric pressure. An RF power source that generates an RF electric field is electromagetically coupled to the RF cavity. An ultraviolet light source is positioned in optical communication to the cavity. An antenna is positioned within the cavity adjacent to the ultraviolet light source. A chamber for confining the plasma can be positioned in the cavity around the antenna.

    摘要: Printing apparatus has at least one print station including a blanket cylinder in rolling contact with an impression cylinder, a print cylinder for supporting a lithographic plate, the plate cylinder being in rolling contact with the blanket cylinder, at least one discharge source for applying an image to a plate supported by the plate cylinder, and a motor for moving the energy source relative to the plate cylinder so that when the plate cylinder is rotated, the discharge source scans a raster on the surface of the plate supported by the plate cylinder. The apparatus may be configured as an in-line or central-impression type press. A controller responsive to picture signals representing an original document repeatedly actuates each discharge source momentarily during the scan thereof so that the discharge source forms on the plate surface an image comprised of dots corresponding to the original document. The controller includes a dot-position look-up table for storing the x and y coordinates of substantially all dot positions on the plate and is arranged to actuate each energy source to form image dots at selected ones of the dot positions when said picture signals are present. The apparatus also includes provision for regulating the ink applied to the plate at each print station.
