摘要： A printing method and apparatus in which an elongate substrate such as a strip of paper, fabric, synthetic resin sheeting, foil or the like is imprinted with a plurality of patterns in different colors to achieve a composite multicolored image.The apparatus has multiple independent stations through which the substrate is passed, each station having a master sleeve with an image in semipermanent fixed primary toner formed thereon. The image is transferred to the substrate directly from the sleeve or by way of an intermediate transfer roll or blanket as in offset printing.The master sleeve is charged in light, the toned parts retaining charge by virtue of being dielectric in character, the now charged image is toned with a suitable pigmented secondary toner and this double toned image is pressed against the passing substrate or brought very close to it either directly or through the transfer medium. Through the aid of an electrical field established between the substrate and the sleeve or transfer medium the toner is transferred to the substrate and the sleeve and medium circulate back to pass through the same process of charge, tone and transfer.The transferred images on the substrate are fixed between or during movement through stations. Information on image density may be fed back to the same or previous stations for change in the bias field conditions or other parameters.

摘要： Method and apparatus for sputter coating of printing or similar type cylinders by means of r.f. sputtering in which each of the cylinders being coated comprises a thin, metal sleeve of cylindrical configuration mounted on a mandrel. A plurality of mandrels is mounted in a sputtering chamber on a spider which is rotated coaxially with a cylindrical target, the target being stationary. A fixed ring gear cooperates with pinions on each of the mandrels to impart an epicyclic movement to the mandrels, each of which mounts a sleeve.An r.f. sputtering condition is created in the chamber between the target and the cylinders so that a plurality of cylinders is coated simultaneously.The chamber can be opened to remove the cylinders after sputtering to replace them with others to be coated, this without disturbing the target.

摘要： Apparatus for sputtering printing or similar type cylinders by means of r.f. sputtering in which a cylindrical metal substrate is mounted on a mandrel which is installed in a sputtering chamber. The apparatus includes targets arranged around the cylindrical substrate, the substrate comprising the anode or being mounted on the anode. The sputtering operation is arranged to apply a highly uniform coating of a photoconductive material on the substrate and the structure is arranged so that the finished cylinder can be removed from the sputtering chamber along with the mandrel and replaced by another metal cylindrical substrate on another mandrel. In this way a printing cylinder comprising a seamless thin-walled metal sleeve having a coating of photoconductive material is easily produced economically and rapidly, said coating having uniform thickness and properties throughout.
