Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Einrichtung zum Beschichten von Bedruckstoffen in Druckmaschinen, speziell zum Auftragen von höherviskosen, wasserverdünnbaren, als effekt- und/oder schutzlackwirkenden Schichten definierter Dicke auf den Bedruckstoff.The invention relates to a device for coating printing materials in printing presses, especially for applying higher-viscosity, water-thinnable layers of a defined thickness as effect and / or protective lacquer to the printing material.

Aus der DE 3 046 257 C2 ist eine Einrichtung mit einem Lackvorratsbehälter und einer Schöpfwalze bekannt. Der durch die Schöpfwalze aufgenommene Lack wird dosiert einer Auftragwalze zugeführt. Zwei Rakelwalzen sind an die Schöpfwalze anstellbar und an die Dosierwalze ist ein Rakelblatt zum Abstreifen der Lackmenge anstellbar.DE 3 046 257 C2 discloses a device with a paint reservoir and a scoop roller. The paint taken up by the scoop roller is metered to an application roller. Two squeegee rollers can be adjusted to the scoop roller and a squeegee blade can be adjusted to the metering roller to strip off the amount of paint.

Ein Auftragswerk für hochviskose, ölhaltige oder niedrigviskose wasserlösliche Schichten ist aus der DE 3 906 648 A1 bekannt. Dieses Auftragswerk ist als Lackiereinrichtung, wahlweise als Offset-Hochdruck- oder Tiefdruckwerk ausgebildet. Die Ausführungen gehen von einer strukturierten Schöpfwalze aus, die mit einem Rakelblatt korrespondiert bzw. von einer Auftragwalze und einem strukturierten Formzylinder, der mit einem Rakelblatt korrespondiert. Das Hochdruckwerk besteht dabei aus einer mit Näpfchen profilierten Schöpfwalze, der ein Rakelblatt zugeordnet ist, einer Übertragwalze, der Glättwalzen zugeordnet sind und einem Formzylinder mit Hochdruckform.An application for high-viscosity, oil-containing or low-viscosity water-soluble layers is known from DE 3 906 648 A1. This application unit is designed as a coating device, optionally as an offset letterpress or gravure unit. The explanations are based on a structured scoop roller which corresponds to a doctor blade or an application roller and a structured forme cylinder which corresponds to a doctor blade. The high-pressure unit consists of a scoop roller profiled with a cup, to which a doctor blade is assigned, a transfer roller, to which smoothing rollers are assigned, and a forme cylinder with a high-pressure mold.

Gemäß der DE 3 427 898 C1 ist eine Vorrichtung zum Dosieren von Lack über einen zwischen zwei Walzen gebildeten Lackspalt bekannt.According to DE 3 427 898 C1, a device for metering lacquer through a lacquer gap formed between two rollers is known.

Nachteilig bei diesen Lösungen ist es, daß bei Verarbeitung von Flüssigkeiten mit höherer Viskosität, ca. 0,1 bis 2 Pa s Probleme auftreten, da die Flüssigkeiten eine Fließgrenze aufweisen. Es kommt zu Störungen der Flüssigkeitsströmungen, die z.B. zu sogenannten Lacknestern führen, in denen der Lack leicht antrocknet.The disadvantage of these solutions is that when processing Liquids with a higher viscosity, approx. 0.1 to 2 Pa s Problems occur because the liquids have a yield point. The liquid flows are disturbed, which leads to so-called paint nests, for example, in which the paint dries slightly.

Beispielsweise aus der DE 3 614 582 A1 ist ein sogenanntes Kammerrakel zum Auftragen einer Beschichtungsmasse auf eine Beschichtungswalze bekannt. Mindestens zwei, an einer Walze anliegende, Rakelblätter bilden eine Kammer zur Aufnahme einer Masse, die unter Druck zugeführt wird.For example, from DE 3 614 582 A1, a so-called chamber doctor blade for applying a coating composition to a coating roller is known. At least two doctor blades lying against a roller form a chamber for receiving a mass which is supplied under pressure.

Nachteilig ist, daß die unter Druck zugeführte Masse lediglich über den Rakelspalt austreten kann und über einen weiteren druckfreien Raum eine Rückführung des Überschusses erfolgt. Bei Verwendung von höherviskosen Flüssigkeiten können sich an den Rakelblättern Ablagerungen aufbauen, die zu Druckstörungen führen.It is disadvantageous that the mass supplied under pressure can only emerge via the doctor blade gap and the excess is returned via a further pressure-free space. When using highly viscous liquids, deposits can build up on the doctor blades, which can lead to pressure disturbances.

Aus der DE 3 941 571 A1 ist ein Verfahren und eine Einrichtung zur Verarbeitung von Spezialfarben in Offsetdruckmaschinen bekannt. Mittels eines Hochdruckwerkes wird nach dem letzten Offsetdruckwerk ein Lackauftrag auf den Bedruckstoffübertragen. Im Feuchtwerk des letzen Offsetdruckwerkes wird dazu bereits eine erste Lackierung als Vorlackierung und im nachgeordneten Lackwerk wird eine zweite Lackierung durchgeführt und danach wird in einem weiteren Lackwerk eine dritte Lackierung auf den Bedruckstoff aufgebracht. Die Einrichtung selbst wird dabei im wesentlichen aus einem Flexodruckwerk mit einer Tauchwalze, einer Einfärbwalze mit Rasterstruktur und einem Formzylinder gebildet.DE 3 941 571 A1 discloses a method and a device for processing special colors in offset printing machines. After the last offset printing unit, a varnish is transferred to the substrate using a high-pressure unit. In the dampening unit of the last offset printing unit, a first coating is already carried out as pre-coating and in the downstream coating unit, a second coating is carried out, and then a third coating is applied to the printing material in a further coating unit. The device itself is essentially formed from a flexographic printing unit with an immersion roller, an inking roller with a grid structure and a forme cylinder.

Gemäß der Zeitschrift "Flexodruck", 2/93, Seiten 42 bis 43 ist es bekannt, ein Lackierwerk mit einer Rasterwalze sowie einem Kammerrakel als Flexodruckwerk auszubilden.According to the magazine "Flexodruck", 2/93, pages 42 to 43, it is known to design a coating unit with an anilox roller and a chambered doctor blade as a flexographic printing unit.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, eine Beschichtungseinrichtung für Druckmaschinen zu entwickeln, die eine problemlose Inline-Verarbeitung von schnellverdunstenden Flüssigkeiten mit einer Viskosität von etwa 0,1 bis 2 Pa s und speziellen Zusammensetzungen mit hohem Pigmentanteil bzw. groben Pigmenten gestattet.The object of the invention is to develop a coating device for printing presses which permits problem-free inline processing of rapidly evaporating liquids with a viscosity of approximately 0.1 to 2 Pa s and special compositions with a high pigment content or coarse pigments.

Gelöst wird die Aufgabe durch eine Einrichtung gemäß Anspruch 1. Weiterbildungen ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen.The object is achieved by a device according to claim 1. Further developments result from the subclaims.

Die erfindungsgemäße Lösung gestattet es, das Inline-Beschichten mit höherviskosen Flüssigkeiten in einer Druckmaschine vorzunehmen unter besonderer Berücksichtigung von Lacken bzw. pigmentierten Farben auf Wasserbasis (Metallglanzdrucke). Einsatzgebiete bestehen für ausgespartes Lackieren (Spotlackierung) oder vollflächiges Lackieren. Aufgrund der geschlossenen Kammer beim Kammerrakel wird die Verdunstung der verwendeten Flüssigkeit reduziert. Dadurch wird die Verarbeitung von schnell verdunstenden, z.B. wasserlöslichen Flüssigkeiten verbessert. Die Kammerrakel verhindert weiterhin das von offenen Rakelblattausführungen bzw. Schöpfwalzenausführungen bekannte Lack- bzw. Farbspritzen. Ebenso wird das mögliche Aufbauen von angetrockneten Lack-/Farbresten an der Rakelschneide verhindert. Durch das geschlossene Flüssigkeitstransportsystem stellt die erfindungsgemäße Einrichtung einen Funktionsbaustein dar. Neben Kombinationen von mindestens einem Offsetdruckwerk und mindestens einem Flexodruckwerk kann diesen Einrichtungen eine weitere Lackiereinrichtung, z.B. zum vollflächigen Lackieren, nachgeordnet sein.The solution according to the invention makes it possible to carry out the inline coating with higher-viscosity liquids in a printing press, with particular attention to water-based paints or pigmented paints (metallic gloss prints). Areas of application exist for recessed painting (spot painting) or full-area painting. Due to the closed chamber in the chamber doctor blade, the evaporation of the liquid used is reduced. This improves the processing of quickly evaporating, eg water-soluble liquids. The chambered doctor blade also prevents that of open doctor blade blade designs or scoop roller designs known paint or paint syringes. The possible build-up of dried paint / ink residues on the squeegee blade is also prevented. Due to the closed liquid transport system, the device according to the invention represents a functional module. In addition to combinations of at least one offset printing unit and at least one flexographic printing unit, these devices can be followed by a further painting device, for example for full-area painting.

Die Erfindung soll an einem Ausführungsbeispiel näher erläutert werden. Dabei zeigt

die schematische Darstellung einer Einrichtung zum Beschichten.
The invention will be explained in more detail using an exemplary embodiment. It shows
Fig. 1
the schematic representation of a device for coating.

Die in Reihenbauweise ausgeführte Druckmaschine besteht aus fünf Offsetdruckwerken, einer Beschichtungseinrichtung 1 und einer nachgeordneten herkömmlichen Lackiereinheit. Dabei kann die Beschichtungseinrichtung 1 als Spotlackiereinrichtung (für ausgespartes Lackieren) und die nachgeordnete Lackiereinheit zum vollflächigen Oberflächenfinishing eingesetzt werden.The printing press, which is designed in a row, consists of five offset printing units, a coating device 1 and a downstream conventional coating unit. The coating device 1 can be used as a spot painting device (for recessed painting) and the downstream painting unit for full-surface surface finishing.

Die erfindungsgemäße Beschichtungseinrichtung 1 besteht aus einem Druckzylinder 2, dem bogenführende Zylinder (nicht gezeigt) vor- bzw. nachgeordnet sind. Der Druckzylinder 2 ist in Kontakt mit einem Formzylinder 3, der eine eingespannte flexible Hochdruckplatte trägt. In Kontakt mit dem Formzylinder 3 ist eine als Lackwalze wirkende Auftragwalze 4, die eine strukturierte Oberfläche mit Rasternäpfchen besitzt. An die Auftragwalze 4 anstellbar ist dieser ein Kammerrakel 5 zugeordnet, welches ein positives Rakel 8 und ein negatives Rakel 9 und abschließende Seitenteile besitzt, so daß zur Auftragwalze 4 eine offene Kammer gebildet wird. Das positive Rakel 8 zeigt in Drehrichtung der Auftragwalze 4 und wirkt als Schließrakel. Das negative Rakel 9 zeigt entgegen der Drehrichtung der Auftragwalze 4 und wirkt als Arbeitsrakel. Das Kammerrakel 5 besitzt an seinem Gehäuse einen oberhalb einspeisenden Flüssigkeitszulauf 10, der mittig angeordnet ist. Am Gehäuseunterteil des Kammerrakels 5 sind zwei austretende Flüssigkeitsabläufe 11 im Bereich der Seitenteile angeordnet. Der Flüssigkeitszulauf 10 ist mit einer Förderpumpe 7 und einer Leitung gekoppelt. Die Flüssigkeitsabläufe 11 führen über Leitungen zu einer Saugpumpe 6. Eine speziell durch die Pigmentierung höherviskose Flüssigkeit z.B. auf Wasserbasis, wie z.B. Gold- und Silberdruckfarbe, Deckweiß oder Lack, wird durch die Förderpumpe 7 über eine Leitung und den Flüssigkeitszulauf 10 in die Gehäusekammer der Kammerrakel 5 gefördert. Der Förderdruck der Pumpe 7 bildet im Inneren des Kammerrakels 5 einen Überdruck aus, aufgrund dessen die höherviskose Flüssigkeit das Innere des Kammerrakels 5 in Richtung Auftragwalze und durch die Flüssigkeitsabläufe 11 verlassen soll. Von den Abläufen 11 wird die Flüssigkeit durch die Saugpumpe 6 in ein Reservoir 12 zurückgefördert. Über die Rasternäpfchen der Auftragwalze 4 wird die höherviskose Flüssigkeit von der als Lackwalze wirkenden Auftragwalze 4 zum Einfärben der Hochdruckform auf den Formzylinder 3 transportiert und wird als Schicht auf den vom Druckzylinder 2 zugeführten Bedruckstoff aufgebracht. Während des von der Auftragwalze 4 bewirkten Flüssigkeitstransports rakelt das negative Rakel 9 die Flüssigkeit von den Stegen der Rasternäpfchenstruktur der Auftragwalze 4 ab, so daß die Flüssigkeit ausschließlich in den Rasternäpfchen verbleibt.The coating device 1 according to the invention consists of a pressure cylinder 2, the sheet-guiding cylinders (not shown) are arranged upstream or downstream. The impression cylinder 2 is in contact with a forme cylinder 3, which carries a clamped flexible high pressure plate. In contact with the forme cylinder 3 is an applicator roller 4, which acts as a lacquer roller and has a structured surface with grid cups. A chamber doctor blade 5 is assigned to the application roller 4, which has a positive doctor blade 8 and a negative doctor blade 9 and final side parts, so that an open chamber is formed for the application roller 4. The positive doctor blade 8 points in the direction of rotation of the application roller 4 and acts as a closing doctor blade. The negative doctor blade 9 points against the direction of rotation of the application roller 4 and acts as a working doctor blade. The chambered doctor blade 5 has on its housing an above-feeding liquid inlet 10 which is arranged in the center. At the Lower part of the chamber doctor blade 5, two emerging liquid drains 11 are arranged in the region of the side parts. The liquid inlet 10 is coupled to a feed pump 7 and a line. The liquid drains 11 lead via lines to a suction pump 6. A liquid which is especially viscous due to the pigmentation, for example water-based liquid, such as gold and silver printing ink, opaque white or lacquer, is fed through the feed pump 7 via a line and the liquid inlet 10 into the housing chamber of the chambered doctor blade 5 funded. The delivery pressure of the pump 7 forms an overpressure in the interior of the chambered doctor blade 5, due to which the higher-viscosity liquid should leave the interior of the chambered doctor blade 5 in the direction of the application roller and through the liquid drains 11. From the outlets 11, the liquid is conveyed back into a reservoir 12 by the suction pump 6. Via the grid cups of the application roller 4, the higher-viscosity liquid is transported from the application roller 4, which acts as a coating roller, for inking the high-pressure form onto the forme cylinder 3 and is applied as a layer to the printing material supplied by the impression cylinder 2. During the liquid transport caused by the application roller 4, the negative doctor blade 9 scrapes the liquid off the webs of the grid structure of the application roller 4, so that the liquid remains only in the grid cups.
