Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein System zur Herstellung von dreidimensionalen Strukturen auf einem Substrat, mit einem Maschinengestell, an dem wenigstens eine auswechselbare Einheit zur Strukturenherstellung nach einem ersten Verfahren, Eingabe- und Ausgabeeinrichtungen für das Substrat und Transportmittel zum Transport des Substrats von der Eingabeeinrichtung über die wenigstens eine Einheit zur Strukturenherstellung an die Ausgabeeinrichtung angebracht sind.The invention relates to a system for producing three-dimensional structures on a substrate, with a machine frame on which at least one interchangeable unit for producing structures according to a first method, input and output devices for the substrate and transport means for transporting the substrate from the input device via the at least one a structure-making unit is attached to the output device.

Unter Herstellung von dreidimensionalen Strukturen auf einem Substrat, die zwei Dimensionen in der Substratebene und eine im allgemeinen wesentlich kleinere Dimension senkrecht zum Substrat aufweisen, werden hier in erster Linie Drucktechniken verstanden, es werden aber auch verwandte Techniken einbezogen, mit denen auf einem Substrat wie z. B. Papier, Schriften oder Bilder hergestellt werden.The production of three-dimensional structures on a substrate, which have two dimensions in the substrate plane and a generally substantially smaller dimension perpendicular to the substrate, are primarily understood to mean printing techniques here, but related techniques are also included, with which on a substrate such as, for . B. paper, fonts or pictures.

Herkömmlichen Druckmaschinen oder Druckern liegt jeweils ein ganz bestimmtes Arbeitsverfahren zugrunde, z. B. Offsetdruck, Tiefdruck, Tintenstrahldruck usw.. Dies ist in der Entwicklungsgeschichte der Druckmaschinen begründet, und es wird allgemein als selbstverständlich angesehen, daß jede Druckmaschine auf ihr spezielles Druckverfahren beschränkt ist.Conventional printing machines or printers are each based on a very specific working method, e.g. As offset printing, gravure printing, ink jet printing, etc. This is due to the development history of the printing press, and it is generally taken for granted that each printing press is limited to its specific printing process.

Bei einer in der DE-OS 43 28 058 beschriebenen Flachdruckmaschine, welche die am Anfang genannten Merkmale aufweist, sind ein oder mehrere Zylinder bzw. eine Druckform jeweils gegen eine gleich aufgebaute Einheit auswechselbar. Auch mit dieser Druckmaschine ist aber immer nur ein ganz bestimmtes Druckverfahren durchführbar, z. B. Offsetdruck.In a planographic printing machine described in DE-OS 43 28 058, which has the features mentioned at the beginning, one or more cylinders or a printing form can each be exchanged for an identically constructed unit. Even with this printing press, however, only a very specific printing process can be carried out, e.g. B. offset printing.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Druckmaschine bzw. allgemein ein System zur Herstellung von dreidimensionalen Strukturen auf einem Substrat zu schaffen, das universeller verwendbar ist, als im Stand der Technik bekannt.The invention has for its object to provide a printing press or, in general, a system for producing three-dimensional structures on a substrate which can be used more universally than is known in the prior art.

Diese Aufgabe wird bei einem gattungsgemäßen System erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß das System eine elektronische Datenverarbeitungseinrichtung zur Steuerung der wenigstens einen Einheit zur Strukturenherstellung, der Eingabe- und Ausgabeeinrichtungen und/oder der Transportmittel sowie wenigstens eine weitere Einheit zur Herstellung von Strukturen auf dem gleichen Substrat umfaßt, die nach einem anderen Verfahren zur Strukturenherstellung arbeitet als die wenigstens eine Einheit zur Strukturenherstellung nach dem ersten Verfahren und die im Austausch gegen die Einheit zur Strukturenherstellung nach dem ersten Verfahren an dem Maschinengestell anbringbar ist.This object is achieved according to the invention in a generic system in that the system comprises an electronic data processing device for controlling the at least one unit for the production of structures, the input and output devices and / or the means of transport and at least one further unit for the production of structures on the same substrate which works according to a different method for the production of structures than the at least one unit for the production of structures according to the first method and which can be attached to the machine frame in exchange for the unit for the production of structures according to the first method.

In der einfachsten Ausführungsform der Erfindung ist jeweils nur eine Einheit zur Strukturenherstellung am Maschinengestell angebracht, und durch Auswechseln dieser Einheit gegen eine andere kann mit dem gleichen System ein anderes Verfahren zur Strukturenherstellung durchgeführt werden. Beispielsweise kann ein Tintenstrahldruckwerk gegen ein Tiefdruckwerk ausgetauscht werden. Dies ergibt nicht nur ein wesentlich erweitertes Anwendungsspektrum, sondern ist auch sehr kostengünstig, da alle übrigen Systemeinheiten weiterverwendet und somit optimal ausgenutzt werden. Auch braucht der Anwender nicht alle verfügbaren Druckwerke bereitzuhalten, sondern kann sie bedarfsweise nachkaufen.In the simplest embodiment of the invention, only one unit for the production of structures is attached to the machine frame, and by exchanging this unit for another, another method for producing the structure can be carried out with the same system. For example, an inkjet printing unit can be exchanged for a gravure printing unit. This not only results in a significantly expanded range of applications, but is also very cost-effective, since all the other system units are used further and are thus optimally used. The user also does not need to have all available printing units ready, but can buy them as needed.

In einer weiteren Ausführungsform weist das Maschinengestell mehrere Stationen zur Aufnahme von Einheiten zur Strukturenherstellung auf, wobei die verschiedenen Einheiten zur Strukturenherstellung an jeder der Stationen am Maschinengestell anbringbar bzw. davon abnehmbar sind.In a further embodiment, the machine frame has a plurality of stations for receiving units for the production of structures, the various units can be attached to or removed from the machine frame for the production of structures at each of the stations.

Auf diese Weise lassen sich in ein und derselben Maschine mehrere verschiedene Druckverfahren durchführen. Beispielsweise kann eine Seite von Papierbögen im Tintenstrahldruck bedruckt werden, während die andere Seite im Offsetdruck bedruckt wird. Dies erhöht die Wirtschaftlichkeit, etwa wenn bei einer Auflage mit hohen Stückzahlen einzelne Seiten individuell bedruckt werden sollen.In this way, several different printing processes can be carried out in the same machine. For example, one side of sheets of paper can be printed using inkjet printing, while the other side is printed using offset printing. This increases cost-effectiveness, for example if individual pages are to be individually printed for a print run with large quantities.

Ferner kann auch mit dieser Ausführungsform jeweils eines der Verfahren allein durchgeführt werden, wobei die anderen Einheiten leer durchlaufen, und man kann ohne Umrüsten, einfach durch Steuerung der Datenverarbeitungseinrichtung, von einem Verfahren auf das andere Verfahren umschalten.Furthermore, this embodiment can also be used to carry out one of the methods alone, with the other units running through empty, and one can switch from one method to the other method without conversion, simply by controlling the data processing device.

Außerdem kann man verschiedene Einheiten zur Strukturenherstellung, z. B. Tintenstrahldruckwerke, elektrofotografische Druckwerke, Offsetdruckwerke oder Tiefdruckwerke, in beliebiger Reihenfolge hintereinander anordnen. Wird Mehrfarbendruck gewünscht, so lassen sich mehrere gleichartige Druckwerke hintereinander anordnen. Bei einigen platzsparenden Druckverfahren lassen sich aber auch Einheiten zur gleichzeitigen Herstellung von mehreren Farben realisieren, etwa ein Mehrfarben-Tintenstrahldruckwerk, und diese wiederum mit weiteren Einheiten kombinieren.You can also use different units for structure production, e.g. B. inkjet printing units, electrophotographic printing units, offset printing units or gravure printing units, in a sequence in any order. If multi-color printing is desired, several similar printing units can be arranged one behind the other. With some space-saving printing processes, units for the simultaneous production of several colors can also be realized, for example a multi-color ink jet printing unit, and these in turn can be combined with further units.

Auch diese Ausführungsform weist ein sehr günstiges Verhältnis der Kosten zum Leistungsspektrum auf, da das Maschinengestell, die Eingabe- und Ausgabeeinrichtungen, die Transportmittel und die Datenverarbeitungseinrichtung nur einmal vorhanden sein müssen und in allen Maschinenkonfigurationen genutzt werden.This embodiment also has a very favorable ratio of the costs to the range of services, since the machine frame, the input and output devices, the means of transport and the data processing device need only be present once and are used in all machine configurations.

Aus dem obigen ergibt sich, daß die verwendeten Druckverfahren voneinander sehr verschieden sein können. Dennoch lassen sich die verschiedenen Druckwerke ohne umfangreiche manuelle Eingriffe oder Einstellungen austauschen bzw. gemeinsam betreiben, da sie durch eine elektronische Datenverarbeitungseinrichtung gesteuert werden, mit der sie z. B. über genormte Steckverbinder verbunden sind. Dazu ist es allerdings erforderlich, daß jedes Druckwerk einen eigenen, durch die Datenverarbeitungseinrichtung steuerbaren Antrieb aufweist. Während die Datenverarbeitungseinrichtung im Falle von z. B. Offsetdruckwerken oder Tiefdruckwerken die Zylinderrotation, die Farbführung usw. steuert, übernimmt sie im Falle von z. B. Tintenstrahldruckwerken oder elektrofotografischen Druckwerken auch die Aufbereitung von Daten, die die dreidimensionalen Strukturen darstellen, passend zum gerade verwendeten Druckwerk. Die Verbindung zwischen der Datenverarbeitungseinrichtung und den Druckwerken umfaßt nicht nur Steuerleitungen, sondern auch Kontrollleitungen, mit denen die eingesetzten Druckwerke außerdem automatisch identifiziert werden können.It follows from the above that the printing processes used can be very different from one another. Nevertheless, the various printing units can be exchanged or operated together without extensive manual intervention or settings, since they are controlled by an electronic data processing device with which they can be used, for. B. are connected via standard connectors. However, this requires that each printing unit has its own drive that can be controlled by the data processing device. While the data processing device in the case of z. B. offset printing or rotogravure controls the cylinder rotation, color control, etc., it takes over in the case of z. B. inkjet printing units or electrophotographic printing units also the processing of data that represent the three-dimensional structures to match the printing unit currently in use. The connection between the data processing device and the printing units includes not only control lines, but also control lines with which the printing units used can also be identified automatically.

In einer Weiterbildung der Erfindung sind Zusatzeinrichtungen vorgesehen, die jeweils anstelle eines Druckwerks an einer Station des Maschinengestells anbringbar sind und die, falls notwendig, ebenfalls durch die Datenverarbeitungseinrichtung gesteuert werden. Zweckmäßige Zusatzeinrichtungen sind z. B. eine Wendeeinheit zum Wenden des Substrats zwischen zwei Druckwerken, eine Transporteinheit zum Weitertransport des Substrats an Stationen, die nicht mit Druckwerken besetzt sind, und eine Perforiereinheit zum Perforieren des Substrats.In a further development of the invention, additional devices are provided, each of which can be attached to a station of the machine frame instead of a printing unit and which, if necessary, are also controlled by the data processing device. Appropriate additional devices are e.g. B. a turning unit for turning the substrate between two printing units, a transport unit for further transport of the substrate at stations that are not occupied by printing units, and a perforating unit for perforating the substrate.

Das Maschinengestell kann ferner so gestaltet werden, daß z. B. die Ausgabeeinrichtung vom Maschinengestell abnehmbar ist und an deren Stelle eine Transporteinheit oder eine Wendeeinheit anbringbar ist, über die das Maschinengestell mit einem weiteren Maschinengestell gekoppelt werden kann, bei dem die Eingabeeinrichtung entfernt ist. Dadurch entsteht ein Baukastensystem, mit dem sich beliebig viele Druckwerke hintereinander anordnen und betreiben lassen.The machine frame can also be designed so that, for. B. the output device is removable from the machine frame and in its place a transport unit or Reversible unit can be attached, via which the machine frame can be coupled to a further machine frame, from which the input device is removed. This creates a modular system with which any number of printing units can be arranged and operated one after the other.

Weitere Merkmale und Vorteile der Erfindung ergeben sich aus der folgenden Beschreibung eines Ausführungsbeispiels und aus der Zeichnung, auf die Bezug genommen wird.Further features and advantages of the invention result from the following description of an exemplary embodiment and from the drawing, to which reference is made.

Die in Fig. 1 gezeigte Druckmaschine 1 enthält ein Maschinengestell 2 mit sechs im Abstand hintereinander liegenden Stationen, an denen der Reihe nach eine Papiereingabeeinrichtung 3, vier Druckwerke 4 und eine Papierausgabeeinrichtung 5 angeordnet sind. Die Papiereingabe- und -ausgabeeinrichtungen 3, 5 und die Druckwerke 4 sind jeweils durch schematisch dargestellte Papiertransporteinrichtungen 6 miteinander verbunden, die nicht eingezeichnete Papierbögen von der Papiereingabeeinrichtung 3 durch die Druckwerke 4 hindurch an die Papierausgabeeinrichtung 5 befördern.The printing machine 1 shown in FIG. 1 contains a machine frame 2 with six stations one behind the other, at which a paper input device 3, four printing units 4 and a paper output device 5 are arranged in sequence. The paper input and output devices 3, 5 and the printing units 4 are each connected to one another by schematically illustrated paper transport devices 6, which convey sheets of paper (not shown) from the paper input device 3 through the printing units 4 to the paper output device 5.

Die Druckwerke 4 und die Papiereingabe- und -ausgabeeinrichtungen 3, 5 sind über Steckverbinder 7 mit einer nicht gezeigten Stromversorgungseinheit im Maschinengestell 2 sowie mit einer gestrichelt eingezeichneten Datenverarbeitungseinrichtung 8 verbunden, die sowohl innerhalb als auch außerhalb des Maschinengestells 2 angeordnet sein kann.The printing units 4 and the paper input and output devices 3, 5 are connected via plug connectors 7 to a power supply unit, not shown Machine frame 2 and connected to a dashed-line data processing device 8, which can be arranged both inside and outside of the machine frame 2.

Die Druckwerke 4 sind so ausgebildet, daß sie vom Maschinengestell 2 abnehmbar und gegeneinander austauschbar sind. Es sind fünf Arten von gegeneinander austauschbaren Druckwerken 4 vorgesehen, die in Fig. 2 symbolmäßig dargestellt sind:
ein Einfarben-Tintenstrahldruckwerk 4a, ein Mehrfarben-Tintenstrahldruckwerk 4b, ein elektrofotografisches Druckwerk 4c, ein Offsetdruckwerk 4d und ein Tiefdruckwerk 4e.The printing units 4 are designed such that they can be removed from the machine frame 2 and are interchangeable. Five types of interchangeable printing units 4 are provided, which are shown symbolically in FIG. 2:
a single-color inkjet printing unit 4a, a multi-color inkjet printing unit 4b, an electrophotographic printing unit 4c, an offset printing unit 4d and a gravure printing unit 4e.

Ferner sind in Fig. 2 symbolmäßig drei Zusatzeinrichtungen 9a-c dargestellt, die so ausgebildet sind, daß sie ebenfalls anstelle eines Druckwerks 4 an einer Station des Maschinengestells 2 eingesetzt werden können:
eine Wendeeinheit 9a zum Wenden der Papierbögen, eine Perforiereinheit 9b zum Perforieren der Papierbögen und eine Transporteinheit 9c zum Weitertransport des Papiers von einer Papiertransporteinrichtung 6 zur anderen, wenn die dazwischen liegende Station am Maschinengestell 2 unbesetzt ist.Furthermore, three additional devices 9a-c are shown symbolically in FIG. 2, which are designed such that they can also be used instead of a printing unit 4 at a station of the machine frame 2:
a turning unit 9a for turning the paper sheets, a perforating unit 9b for perforating the paper sheets and a transport unit 9c for further transport of the paper from one paper transport device 6 to another when the intermediate station on the machine frame 2 is unoccupied.

Die Papiereingabe- und -ausgabeeinrichtungen 3, 5 sind ebenso wie die Druckwerke 4 von dem Maschinengestell 2 abnehmbar, und das Maschinengestell 2 ist so ausgebildet, daß zwei hintereinander gestellte Druckmaschinen 1 über eine Wendeeinheit 9a oder eine Transporteinheit 9c miteinander gekoppelt werden können, welche an die Stelle der dazwischen liegenden Papierausgabe- und -eingabeeinrichtungen 3, 5 gesetzt wird.The paper input and output devices 3, 5, like the printing units 4, can be removed from the machine frame 2, and the machine frame 2 is designed such that two printing machines 1, which are arranged one behind the other, can be coupled to one another via a turning unit 9a or a transport unit 9c the location of the intermediate paper output and input devices 3, 5 is set.

Sind in einem Maschinengestell 2 beispielsweise ein Mehrfarben-Tintenstrahldruckwerk 4b und drei Tiefdruckwerke 4e mit drei verschiedenen Farben eingesetzt, so wird die Druckmaschine 1 wie folgt betrieben.Are in a machine frame 2, for example, a multi-color inkjet printing unit 4b and three Gravure printing units 4e used with three different colors, the printing press 1 is operated as follows.

Die Datenverarbeitungseinrichtung 8 steuert die Papiereingabe- und -ausgabeeinrichtungen 3, 5 und die Papiertransporteinrichtungen 6, um Papierbögen in einem Maschinentakt durch die Druckmaschine 1 hindurch zu befördern. Die Druckwerke 4b und 4e werden im Maschinentakt gesteuert, Druckbilder auf das Papier zu übertragen, wobei das Tintenstrahldruckwerk 4b außerdem geeignet aufbereitete Bildinformationen der Druckbilder von der Datenverarbeitungseinrichtung 8 erhält. Das Tintenstrahldruckwerk 4b bzw. die drei Tiefdruckwerke 4e sind dafür eingerichtet, einander gegenüberliegende Bogenseiten zu bedrucken, so daß die Bögen auf einer Seite mehrfarbig im Tiefdruck und auf der anderen Seite mehrfarbig im Tintenstrahldruck bedruckt werden, wobei das Druckbild des Tintenstrahldrucks außerdem durch die Datenverarbeitungseinrichtung 8 von Bogen zu Bogen geändert werden kann.The data processing device 8 controls the paper input and output devices 3, 5 and the paper transport devices 6 in order to convey sheets of paper through the printing press 1 in one machine cycle. The printing units 4b and 4e are controlled in a machine cycle to transfer print images to the paper, the inkjet printing unit 4b also receiving suitably prepared image information of the print images from the data processing device 8. The inkjet printing unit 4b or the three rotogravure printing units 4e are set up to print opposite sides of the sheet, so that the sheets are printed multicolored in gravure printing and on the other side multicolored in inkjet printing, the print image of the inkjet printing also being processed by the data processing device 8 can be changed from sheet to sheet.

Auf entsprechende Weise arbeiten eine Vielzahl von möglichen Kombinationen der dargestellten Druckwerke 4a-e und Zusatzeinrichtungen 9a-c. Sind diese Möglichkeiten erschöpft, weil zum Beispiel die Stationen des Maschinengestells 2 durch vier gleiche Druckwerke für einseitigen Vierfarbendruck aufgefüllt sind, so hängt man z. B. über die Wendeeinrichtung 9a einfach ein weiteres Maschinengestell 2 an, auf dem die andere Bogenseite nach irgendeinem gewünschten Verfahren bedruckt wird. Dabei werden entweder die beiden Datenverarbeitungseinrichtungen 8 der hintereinander gekoppelten Druckmaschinen 1 miteinander synchronisiert, oder nur eine Datenverarbeitungseinrichtung 8 steuert sämtliche Druckwerke 4.A large number of possible combinations of the illustrated printing units 4a-e and additional devices 9a-c work in a corresponding manner. If these possibilities are exhausted because, for example, the stations of the machine frame 2 are filled by four identical printing units for one-sided four-color printing, one hangs e.g. B. on the turning device 9a simply on another machine frame 2 on which the other sheet side is printed by any desired method. Either the two data processing devices 8 of the printing presses 1 coupled one behind the other are synchronized with one another, or only one data processing device 8 controls all printing units 4.
