Die hier vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zum Herstellen eines Druckprodukts in einer Druckerei, wobei das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren nachfolgend unter Bezugnahme des in Fig. 1 gezeigten Blockschaltbilds beschrieben wird.The present invention relates to a method for producing a printed product in a printing company, wherein the method according to the invention is described below with reference to the in Fig. 1 shown block diagram will be described.

So zeigt Fig. 1 schematisiert eine in einer Druckerei positionierte Druckmaschine 10 sowie eine dieser zugeordnete Weiterverarbeitungsmaschine 11. Die Druckmaschine 10 kann vorzugsweise eine Bogenoffsetdruckmaschine und die Weiterverarbeitungsmaschine 11 kann insbesondere eine Lackier-, Kaschier-, Präge-, Stanz- oder Falzmaschine sein. In der Bogenoffsetdruckmaschine 10 wird ein in Form von Bedruckstoffstapeln 12 bereitgehaltener, bogenförmiger Bedruckstoff bedruckt, wobei der bedruckte Bedruckstoff im Bereich der Weiterverarbeitungsmaschine 11 so verarbeitet wird, dass der Bedruckstoff anschließend in form fertiger Zwischenprodukte oder auslieferungsfähiger Druckprodukte 13 vorliegt.So shows Fig. 1 The printing machine 10 may preferably be a sheetfed offset printing machine and the further processing machine 11 may be in particular a painting, laminating, embossing, punching or folding machine. In the sheet-fed offset printing machine 10, a sheet-shaped printing material kept ready in the form of printing material stacks 12 is printed, the printed printing material being processed in the area of the further processing machine 11 so that the printing material is subsequently in the form of ready-made intermediates or deliverable printed products 13.

Das Drucken in der Druckmaschine 10 und die Weiterverarbeitung des bedruckten Bedruckstoffs in der Weiterverarbeitungsmaschine 11 erfolgt auf Basis von Steuerungsdaten, die von einem Produktionsplanungssystem 14 bereitgehalten werden. Das Produktionsplanungssystem 14 umfasst unter anderem eine so genannte Druckvorstufe, in der Bilddaten bereitgestellt werden, auf Grundlage derer in der Druckmaschine 10 der bogenförmige Bedruckstoff bedruckt wird.The printing in the printing machine 10 and the further processing of the printed substrate in the further processing machine 11 is based on control data, which are held by a production planning system 14. The production planning system 14 includes, inter alia, a so-called pre-press in which image data are provided on the basis of which the sheet-shaped printing material is printed in the printing press 10.

Im Sinne der hier vorliegenden Erfindung wird ein Verbrauch von insbesondere elektrischer Energie bzw. einer Aufnahme von insbesondere elektrischer Leistung der an der oder jeder Herstellung des Druckprodukts beteiligte Aggregate der Druckmaschine 10 und/oder der Weiterverarbeitungsmaschine 11 und/oder der Druckvorstufe des Produktionsplanungssystems 14 oder anderer in einer Druckerei positionierter Baugruppen, die an der Herstellung des Druckprodukts beteiligt sind, erfasst. Entsprechende Daten über den Verbrauch der Energie bzw. die Aufnahme der Leistung werden einer Steuereinrichtung 15 übermittelt, die hieraus einerseits durch Einzelbetrachtung für jedes Aggregat und andererseits durch Gesamtbetrachtung über alle Aggregate den bei der Herstellung der Druckprodukte anfallenden Energieverbrauch bzw. die hierbei anfallende Leistungsaufnahme ermittelt, speichert und gegebenenfalls auf einem Monitor visualisiert. Weiterhin kann die Steuereinrichtung die ermittelten Daten einer Maschinensteuerung der Druckmaschine übermitteln, damit beim Verarbeitungsbetrieb hieraus die entsprechend erforderlichen Steuersignale ermittelt werden können.For the purposes of the present invention, a consumption of, in particular, electrical energy or a recording of, in particular, electric power of the units of the printing press 10 and / or the further processing machine 11 and / or the pre-press of the production planning system 14 or others involved in the or each production of the printed product recorded in a printing unit assemblies that are involved in the production of the printed product detected. Corresponding data about the consumption of energy or the absorption of the power are transmitted to a control device 15, which determines therefrom, on the one hand by individual consideration for each aggregate and, on the other hand, by an overall consideration of all aggregates, of the energy consumption arising in the production of the printed products or the resulting power consumption, stores and if necessary visualized on a monitor. Furthermore, the control device can transmit the ascertained data to a machine control of the printing machine so that the correspondingly required control signals can be determined therefrom in the processing operation.

Anhand der so ermittelten Daten zu Energieverbrauch / Leistungsaufnahme wird dann mindestens ein Aggregat der Druckmaschine 10 und/oder der Weiterverarbeitungsmaschine 11 und/oder des Produktionsplanungssystems 14, wie der Druckvorstufe, zur Reduzierung von Energieverbrauch / Leistungsaufnahme bei der Herstellung des Druckprodukts 13 betrieben. Energieverbrauch / Leistungsaufnahme werden vorzugsweise bei den Aggregaten der Druckmaschine 10 und der Weiterverarbeitungsmaschine 11 eingestellt.
Zur Reduzierung von Energieverbrauch / Leistungsaufnahme kann bei Herstellung von Druckprodukten 13 die Maschinengeschwindigkeit der Druckmaschine 10 und/oder der Weiterverarbeitungsmaschine 11 beschränkt werden, wenn die zulässige Produktionszeit nicht überschritten wird. Alternativ können Aggregate, die zum Herstellen eines Druckprodukts nicht benötigt werden, wie Trockner, Kühl- oder Absaugeinrichtungen, stillgesetzt oder in den Ruhemodus zu überführt werden. Ebenso kann die Maschinengeschwindigkeit der Druckmaschine 10 und/oder Weiterverarbeitungsmaschine 11 gestaffelt erhöht oder entsprechend einem vorgegebenen Sollwert geregelt geführt werden.On the basis of the energy consumption / power consumption data thus determined, at least one unit of the printing press 10 and / or the further processing machine 11 and / or the production planning system 14, such as the prepress, is operated to reduce the energy consumption / power consumption during the production of the printed product 13. Energy consumption / power consumption are preferably set in the aggregates of the printing press 10 and the further processing machine 11.
In order to reduce energy consumption / power consumption when producing printed products 13, the machine speed of the printing press 10 and / or the further processing machine 11 can be limited if the permissible production time is not exceeded. Alternatively, aggregates that are not needed to make a printed product, such as dryers, coolers or exhausters, may be shut down or transferred to sleep mode. Likewise, the machine speed of the printing machine 10 and / or further processing machine 11 can be increased staggered or controlled according to a predetermined setpoint.

Der Energieeinsatz bei der Herstellung des Druckprodukts wird als Verbrauch von elektrischer Energie bzw. eine Aufnahme elektrischer Leistung den Aggregaten der Druckmaschine 10 und/oder Weiterverarbeitungsmaschine 11 und/oder Druckvorstufe des Produktionsplanungssystems 14 oder anderer in einer Druckerei positionierter Baugruppen, erfasst. Ebenso können entsprechende pneumatische und/oder hydraulische und/oder gasseitige Energieverbrauch bzw. die entsprechende Leistungsaufnahme erfasst werden.The energy input in the production of the printed product is detected as consumption of electrical energy or a recording of electrical power to the aggregates of the printing press 10 and / or further processing machine 11 and / or prepress of the production planning system 14 or other positioned in a printing units assemblies. Likewise, corresponding pneumatic and / or hydraulic and / or gas-side energy consumption or the corresponding power consumption can be detected.

Mit der Erfindung kann auch ein Spitzenverbrauch an elektrischer und/oder pneumatischer und/oder hydraulischer und/oder gasseitiger Energie ermittelt werden, und zwar mit dem Ziel, das Überschreiten zulässiger Spitzen zu vermeiden, und zwar wiederum vorzugsweise unter Aufrechterhaltung einer guten Druckqualität.With the invention, a peak consumption of electrical and / or pneumatic and / or hydraulic and / or gas-side energy can be determined, with the aim of avoiding exceeding permissible peaks, again preferably while maintaining a good print quality.

In Figur 2 ist eine Bogenoffsetdruckmaschine 20 mit sechs Druckwerken 21 bis 26 und einem Lackiermodul 27 gezeigt. Weiterhin schließt sich an das Lackiermodul 27 eine Trocknereinrichtung 28 an. Die Bedruckstoffbögen werden von einem Bogenstapel 30 in einem Bogenanleger 29 vereinzelt und dann durch die Druck- und Lackwerke 21 bis 27 gefördert. Danach werden die Bedruckstoffbögen durch die als Trockenstrecke ausgebildete Trocknereinrichtung 28 zu einem Bogenausleger 31 gefördert und dort auf einem Stapel 32 abgelegt. Dabei wird er in den Druck- und Lackwerken 21 bis 27 farbig bedruckt und beschichtet. Hierfür werden Feuchtmittel, Druckfarben und Lacke thermisch behandelt, damit sie die richtige Konsistenz für den jeweils gewünschten Druckprozess haben. Weiterhin kann zwischen allen Druckwerken, wie in Figur 2 angedeutet zwischen dem Druckwerk 26 und dem Lackiermodul 27 ein so genannter Zwischentrockner 33 angeordnet sein, um den Bedruckstoff nach jeder oder nach bestimmten Arbeitsstationen trocknen zu können. Dann wird eine große Menge Wärmeenergie in die Druckmaschine 20 eingebracht, die die Druckqualität beeinträchtigen und den Transport der Bedruckstoffbogen behindern kann. Daher werden hier auch Kühleinrichtungen vorgesehen, um die Wärmewirkung in den Druckwerken bzw. beim Bogentransport zu reduzieren. Weiterhin tritt im Trockner 28 auf dem Weg zum Bogenausleger 31 das Problem des Wärmeeintrags besonders stark auf, da dieser mit bedeutend höheren Leistungen und damit höherem Wärmeeintrag betrieben wird. In Verbindung mit dem Trockner 28 werden Absaugeinrichtungen verwendet, die mit hohen Volumenströmen arbeiten, um Wärmeüberschuss zu beseitigen und Kühlluft in die Maschine einzubringen. Gleichzeitig werden mit der Absaugung auch Luftbefrachtungen durch Puder und Staub beseitigt, die damit nicht in den Bedienbereich vor dem Bogenausleger 31 und auch nicht in den Bogenstapel 32 gelangen können.
Zur Verbesserung der Druckbedingungen ist daher an der Druckmaschine 20 ein Wärmetransportsystem 40 vorgesehen. Dieses verbindet eine Vielzahl von Aggregate wie Feuchtmittelkühlgeräte, Farbwerktemperiergeräte, Luftversorgung, Trocknungssysteme und Motorkühlungen und ermöglicht eine reibungslose Produktion bei hoher Leistung. Dazu sind eine Reihe von Energieschränken 41, 42, 43 vorgesehen, die mit entsprechenden Aggregaten der Druckmaschine 20 verbunden sind.
Da zur Produktion mit hoher Qualität ein Drucksaalklima mit stabiler Temperatur und Luftfeuchtigkeit erforderlich ist, wirkt sich bei luftgekühlten Aggregaten die Abwärme durch Verschlechterung der Umgebungsbedingungen aus.In FIG. 2 For example, a sheetfed offset printing press 20 having six printing units 21 to 26 and a painting module 27 is shown. Furthermore, a drying device 28 connects to the painting module 27. The printing material sheets are separated from a sheet stack 30 in a sheet feeder 29 and then conveyed through the printing and coating units 21 to 27. Thereafter, the printing material sheets are conveyed through the drying device designed as a drying section 28 to a sheet delivery arm 31 and stored there on a stack 32. He is printed in color and coated in the printing and coating units 21 to 27. For this purpose, dampening solutions, printing inks and varnishes are thermally treated so that they have the right consistency for the particular printing process required. Furthermore, between all printing units, as in FIG. 2 indicated between the printing unit 26 and the Lackiermodul 27 a so-called intermediate dryer 33 may be arranged to dry the substrate after each or after certain workstations can. Then, a large amount of heat energy is introduced into the printing machine 20, which may affect the print quality and hinder the transport of the printing material sheet. Therefore, cooling devices are also provided here in order to reduce the thermal effect in the printing units or during sheet transport. Furthermore occurs in the dryer 28 on the way to the sheet delivery 31, the problem of heat input particularly strong, as this with significantly higher power and thus higher heat input is operated. In connection with the dryer 28, suction devices are used which operate with high volume flows in order to eliminate excess heat and to introduce cooling air into the machine. At the same time air extraction by powder and dust are eliminated with the suction, which can not get into the operating area in front of the sheet delivery arm 31 and also not in the sheet stack 32.
To improve the pressure conditions, therefore, a heat transport system 40 is provided on the printing machine 20. It combines a large number of aggregates such as dampening solution cooling units, inking unit temperature control units, air supply, drying systems and engine cooling and enables smooth production with high performance. For this purpose, a number of energy cabinets 41, 42, 43 are provided, which are connected to corresponding units of the printing press 20.
Since high-quality production requires a pressroom climate with stable temperature and humidity, air-cooled units will cause waste heat to be degraded by environmental degradation.

Daher ist als Speichermedium für eine Wärmeabführung aus der Druckmaschine ein Wasser-Glykol-Gemisch vorgesehen, das Wärme schnell und in großer Menge transportieren kann. Durch ein Leitungssystem 45a, 45b, das die Energieschränke 41, 42, 43 verbindet, wird die anfallende Wärme mittels des oben beschriebenen Speichermediums aus dem Drucksaal abtransportiert. Dazu ist ein noch weiteres Leitungssystem 46a, 46b mit dem ersten Leitungssystem 45a, 45b und den Energieschränken 41, 42, 43 gekoppelt und an einen externen Wärmetauscher 44 angeschlossen. Der Wärmetauscher 44 gibt als Rückkühler die überschüssige Wärme aus dem Betrieb der Druckmaschine an die Außenluft in der Art der freien Kühlung ab. Bei hohen Außentemperaturen über 40 °C kann zusätzlich adiabatisch gekühlt werden, wobei Wasser über ein Sprühsystem zur Verdunstung in den Wärmetausch eingebracht wird.Therefore, as a storage medium for heat dissipation from the printing machine, a water-glycol mixture is provided, which can transport heat quickly and in large quantities. By a line system 45a, 45b, which connects the energy cabinets 41, 42, 43, the resulting heat is removed by means of the storage medium described above from the pressroom. For this purpose, a further line system 46a, 46b is coupled to the first line system 45a, 45b and the energy cabinets 41, 42, 43 and connected to an external heat exchanger 44. The heat exchanger 44 gives as a cooler the excess heat from the operation of the printing press to the outside air in the manner of free cooling. At high outside temperatures above 40 ° C, adiabatic cooling can additionally be carried out, whereby water is introduced into the heat exchange via a spray system for evaporation.

Mit diesem Wärmetransportsystem 40 lässt sich abgeführte Energie auch für die Heizung von Gebäuden oder für die Warmwasseraufbereitung nutzen. Im Vergleich zu luftgekühlten Aggregaten ist keine Nachführung von Luft in den Drucksaal notwendig, deren Temperierung und Befeuchtung gleichfalls entfällt.With this heat transport system 40 dissipated energy can also be used for the heating of buildings or for hot water treatment. Compared Air-cooled units do not require the addition of air to the pressroom, which eliminates the need for temperature control and humidification.

In Figur 3 ist schließlich eine schematische Darstellung eines Wärmerückgewinnungssystems 50 für eine Druckmaschine als Teil des Wärmetransportsystems 40 gezeigt. Daher sind hier als Beispiel als Hauptleitungen die beiden Leitungen des ersten Leitungssystems 45a, 45b gezeigt, die einen Vorlauf und einen Rücklauf für das die Wärme abtransportierende Speichermedium bildet. Das Speichermedium wird mittels in dem Wärmetransportsystem 40 vorgesehener Pumpen durch das Leitungssystem 45a, 45b gefördert.In FIG. 3 Finally, a schematic of a heat recovery system 50 for a printing press as part of the heat transport system 40 is shown. Therefore, the two lines of the first line system 45a, 45b are shown here as an example as main lines, which forms a flow and a return for the heat transporting storage medium. The storage medium is conveyed by means provided in the heat transport system 40 pumps through the conduit system 45a, 45b.

Normalerweise zirkuliert das Speichermedium mit einer Temperatur von ca. 40°C in dem auch als zentrale Rückkühlanlage bezeichneten Wärmetransportsystem 40, das hier nun als Wärmerückgewinnungssystem 50 ausgebaut wird. Über Wärmetauscher 51, 52, 53 kann die vom Speichermedium in dem Leitungssystem 45a, 45b mitgeführte Energie auf diverse Funktionsaggregate der Druckmaschine 20 übertragen werden. Die Wärmetauscher 51, 52 können hierbei parallel zum Leitungssystem 45a, 45b des Wärmerückgewinnungssystems 50 geschaltet sein. Es können auch Wärmetauscher 53 in Reihe zum Leitungssystem 45b geschaltet sein. Diese Auswahl wird je nach Bedarf des Wärmetransportes getroffen. Über eine Integration von hier nicht näher gezeigten Wärmepumpen in das Wärmerückgewinnungssystem 50 kann das Temperaturniveau des Speichermediums zusätzlich erhöht werden, wobei sich der Wirkungsgrad verbessert, und die Nutzungsmöglichkeiten können erweitert werden.Normally, the storage medium circulates at a temperature of about 40 ° C in the heat transport system 40, also referred to as the central recooling system, which is hereby expanded as a heat recovery system 50. Via heat exchangers 51, 52, 53, the energy carried by the storage medium in the line system 45a, 45b can be transferred to various functional units of the printing machine 20. The heat exchangers 51, 52 can in this case be connected in parallel to the line system 45a, 45b of the heat recovery system 50. It is also possible to connect heat exchangers 53 in series with the line system 45b. This selection is made according to the needs of the heat transfer. By integrating heat pumps not shown here in detail in the heat recovery system 50, the temperature level of the storage medium can be further increased, the efficiency is improved, and the possible uses can be extended.

Anhand der Darstellung in Figur 3 können folgende Funktionalitäten zur Ausführung von Wärmetransport berücksichtigt werden.
Der Wärmetauscher 51 ist parallel zum Leitungssystem 45a, 45b geschaltet. In der Verbindung zum Leitungssystem 45b ist ein fernsteuerbares Ventil 54 vorgesehen. Mittels des Ventils 54 kann der Wärmeumsatz im Wärmetauscher 51 an das jeweilige dort anstehende Arbeitsmedium gesteuert werden. Wenn eine Steuerleitung 55 mit einer zentralen Steuerungseinrichtung 15 (siehe Figur 1) oder einer Maschinensteuerung der Druckmaschine 20 verbunden ist, kann von dort aus je nach Druckqualität, Druckgeschwindigkeit, Maschinenparametern, Verbrauchswerten oder Sollwertvorgaben, der Durchfluss am Wärmetauscher 51 gesteuert werden. Hierzu sind Sensoren am Verbraucher oder am Wärmetauscher 51 vorzusehen, die den Betriebszustand jeweils wiedergeben.Based on the illustration in FIG. 3 The following functionalities for carrying out heat transport can be taken into account.
The heat exchanger 51 is connected in parallel to the line system 45a, 45b. In connection with the line system 45b, a remotely controllable valve 54 is provided. By means of the valve 54, the heat transfer in the heat exchanger 51 can be controlled to the respective working medium present there. If a control line 55 with a central control device 15 (see FIG. 1 ) or one Machine control of the printing machine 20 is connected, can be controlled from there depending on the print quality, printing speed, machine parameters, consumption values or setpoint specifications, the flow at the heat exchanger 51. For this purpose, sensors are provided on the consumer or on the heat exchanger 51, which reflect the operating state respectively.

Der Wärmetauscher 51 kann als ein in Behälter oder Führungseinrichtungen von Arbeitsmedien einsetzbares Gerät oder als Arbeitsmedien aufnehmender Behälter konzipiert werden. Damit kommt eine vom Speichermedium durchströmte Einsatzvorrichtung oder ein ebenfalls von Speichermedium durchströmter doppelwandiger Behälter für das Arbeitsmedium in Frage. Als Arbeitsmedium ist zum Beispiel UV-Lack für dessen Erwärmung auf Temperaturen von bis zu über 30 °C vorgesehen. Weiterhin kann hier eine Lacktemperierung für beliebige andere Lacksorten vorgesehen seinThe heat exchanger 51 can be designed as a device that can be used in containers or guide devices of working media or as a container receiving working media. This is a flowed through by the storage medium insert device or a likewise flowed through by storage medium double-walled container for the working medium in question. As a working medium, for example, UV varnish is provided for its heating to temperatures of up to over 30 ° C. Furthermore, a coating temperature control for any other types of paint can be provided here

Weiter ist der Wärmetauscher 52 ist parallel zum Leitungssystem 45a, 45b geschaltet. In der Verbindung zum Leitungssystem 45b ist ein fernsteuerbares Ventil 56 vorgesehen. Mittels des Ventils 56 kann der Wärmeumsatz im Wärmetauscher 51 an das jeweilige dort anstehende Arbeitsmedium gesteuert werden. Wenn eine Steuerleitung 57 mit einer zentralen Steuerungseinrichtung 15 (siehe Figur 1) oder einer Maschinensteuerung der Druckmaschine 20 verbunden ist, kann auch im Wärmetauscher 52 der Durchsatz an Speichermedium entsprechend der Maschinen-, Energie- oder Prozessbedürfnisse gesteuert werden.Next, the heat exchanger 52 is connected in parallel to the line system 45a, 45b. In the connection to the line system 45b, a remotely controllable valve 56 is provided. By means of the valve 56, the heat transfer in the heat exchanger 51 can be controlled to the respective working medium present there. If a control line 57 with a central control device 15 (see FIG. 1 ) or a machine controller of the printing machine 20, the throughput of storage medium can also be controlled in the heat exchanger 52 according to the machine, energy or process needs.

Der Wärmetauscher 52 ist als Luft-Wasser-Wärmetauscher ausgebildet und dient zum Vorwärmen eines Zuluftstroms 58, der durch den Wärmetauscher 52 angesaugt und zu einem Prozessluftstrom 59 aufgeheizt wird. Der Wärmetauscher 52 kann so zur Thermoluft-Vorwärmung für einen Trockner eingesetzt werden. Der zu erwärmende Zuluftstrom 58 wird vorzugsweise als Außenluft angesaugt, da sich auf diese Weise in der Regel ein höherer Temperaturunterschied zwischen Luft und Speichermedium ergibt und dies zu einer besseren Energieübertragung bzw. - rückgewinnung führt. Wenn der Zuluftstrom 58 für den Wärmetauscher 52 aus dem Drucksaal angesaugt wird, ist diese Luft bereits durch die Drucksaalheizung aufgeheizt. Da die feucht-warme Trockenluft wieder aus dem Drucksaal nach Außen abgesaugt wird, müsste ersatzweise kontinuierlich Außenluft dem Drucksaal zugeführt werden und diese wäre erneut durch die Drucksaalheizung aufzuheizen, was energetisch sehr ungünstig ist. In der Regel wird der feuchte Abluftstrom ebenfalls zur Vorwärmung der Zuluft genutzt.The heat exchanger 52 is designed as an air-water heat exchanger and serves to preheat a supply air stream 58, which is sucked through the heat exchanger 52 and heated to a process air stream 59. The heat exchanger 52 can thus be used for thermo-air preheating for a dryer. The supply air stream 58 to be heated is preferably sucked in as outside air, since in this way a higher temperature difference between air and storage medium generally results and this leads to better energy transfer or recovery. When the supply air flow 58 for the heat exchanger 52 is sucked out of the pressroom, this air is already through the pressure chamber heating heated. As the moist warm dry air is sucked out of the pressroom to the outside, replacement air should be supplied to the pressroom continuously and this would be heated up again by the pressure chamber heating, which is energetically very unfavorable. As a rule, the moist exhaust air flow is also used to preheat the supply air.

Schließlich ist der Wärmetauscher 53 ist in Reihe mit dem Leitungssystem 45b geschaltet. In Verbindung mit einer Bypassleitung 60 ist gegenüber dem Leitungssystem 45b ein fernsteuerbares Ventil 61 vorgesehen. Mittels des, vorzugsweise als Dreiwege-Ventil ausgebildeten Ventils 61 kann der Wärmeumsatz im Wärmetauscher 53 an das jeweilige dort anstehende Arbeitsmedium gesteuert werden. Wenn eine Steuerleitung 62 mit einer zentralen Steuerungseinrichtung 15 (siehe Figur 1) oder einer Maschinensteuerung der Druckmaschine 20 verbunden ist, kann auch im Wärmetauscher 53 der Durchsatz an Speichermedium entsprechend der Maschinen-, Energie- oder Prozessbedürfnisse im Zusammenhang mit der Herstellung der Druckerzeugnisse gesteuert werden.Finally, the heat exchanger 53 is connected in series with the piping system 45b. In conjunction with a bypass line 60, a remotely controllable valve 61 is provided opposite the line system 45b. By means of, preferably designed as a three-way valve valve 61, the heat transfer in the heat exchanger 53 can be controlled to the respective working medium present there. If a control line 62 with a central control device 15 (see FIG. 1 ) or a machine controller of the printing machine 20, the throughput of storage medium can also be controlled in the heat exchanger 53 according to the machine, energy or process needs associated with the production of the printed products.

In Verbindung mit den Einrichtungen am Wärmetauscher 53 kann eine Vorrichtung zum Spülen eines Lackkreislaufes vorgesehen sein. Weiterhin kann der Wärmetauscher 53 zur Erwärmung von für Reinigungsvorgänge benötigtes Waschwasser (für Farbwerks- und/oder Gummituch- und/oder Druckzylinderwaschvorrichtungen) genutzt werden. Schließlich kann der Wärmetauscher auch für die Erwärmung von Waschwasser für Waschstationen zum Reinigen von z.B. Kammerrakeln, Farbrakeln zu Farbwerkswaschvorrichtungen genutzt werden, die außerhalb oder neben der Druckmaschine angeordnet sind.In connection with the devices on the heat exchanger 53, a device for flushing a paint circuit may be provided. Furthermore, the heat exchanger 53 can be used for heating washing water required for cleaning operations (for inking unit and / or blanket and / or impression cylinder washing devices). Finally, the heat exchanger can also be used for heating washing water for washing stations for cleaning e.g. Chamber doctor blades, color doctor blades are used to Farbwerkschwaschvorrichtungen, which are arranged outside or next to the printing press.

Hierzu kann zum einen dem Wärmetauscher 53 eine Frischwasserzufuhr 63 zugeordnet sein, von der aus erwärmtes Brauchwasser in einen Brauchwasseranschluss 64 geführt wird. Von dort kann ein Verteiler 65 das erwärmte Brauchwasser an die jeweils benötigten Verbraucher (Anschluss zum Spülen des Lackumlaufs, externe Waschstation) führen.For this purpose, on the one hand, a fresh water supply 63 can be assigned to the heat exchanger 53, from which heated service water is led into a service water connection 64. From there, a distributor 65 can lead the heated service water to the particular consumer required (connection for flushing the paint circulation, external washing station).

Weiterhin kann dem Wärmetauscher 53 ein Brauchwasserkreislauf 66 zugeordnet sein, der kontinuierlich Brauchwasser erwärmt und etwa in einem hier nicht gezeigten Speicherbehälter für diskontinuierlichen Verbrauch zwischenspeichert.Furthermore, the heat exchanger 53 may be associated with a service water circuit 66 which continuously heats service water and temporarily stores it in a storage container, not shown here, for discontinuous consumption.

Neben der Erwärmung von Verbrauchsmedien kann auch eine Kühlung stattfinden. Dies ist überall dort gegeben, wo Wärme entzogen wird. Ist ein Kühlgerät eingesetzt kann dessen Abwärme auch in den Kreislauf des Speichermediums mit eingebracht werden. Unterstützend wirken hier Wärmepumpen, die die Ausnutzung des Wärmetransportes steigern und besser steuerbar machen.In addition to the heating of consumer media and a cooling can take place. This is everywhere where heat is removed. If a cooling device is used, its waste heat can also be introduced into the circulation of the storage medium. Heat pumps, which increase the utilization of heat transport and make it easier to control, have a supporting effect here.

Für die Kühlung und Erwärmung kommen Farbwerke (Reiber-, Duktortemperierung), Feuchtwerke (Feuchtmittelkühlung), Lackwerke (Temperierung von Lackumlauf, Walzen, Lackbehältern), Trockner (Vorheizung von Trocknerluft, Abführung der Trocknerwärme, Kühlung von Aggregaten in der Nähe von Trocknern), Bogenführungseinrichtungen (Kühlung von Bogenbahnen), Antriebseinrichtungen (Kühlung von Antriebsmotoren).For cooling and heating come inking units (Reiber-, Duktortemperierung), dampening units (dampening solution cooling), Lackwerke (tempering of paint circulation, rollers, paint containers), dryer (preheating of dryer air, dissipation of dryer heat, cooling of aggregates near dryers), Sheet guiding devices (cooling of sheet paths), drive devices (cooling of drive motors).

Die gesamte Anordnung ist ebenfalls für Produktionsweisen auf Rollendruckmaschine geeignet, wenn diese entsprechend konfiguriert sind.The entire assembly is also suitable for web press production methods, if configured accordingly.

    and in which second units as units operationally consuming heat energy as primary energy are formed through temperature control devices for printing ink and/or for varnish and/or for heating devices for dryer air and/or preheating devices for washing devices
    - wherein energy is fed to the printing press (10) and its units for operation,
    - wherein the units (10, 11; 21 - 28) during the operation are supplied with energy flows for printing or processing substrate to ensure their function,
    - wherein by means of energy transport devices (40 - 46) at least parts of the supplied and not utilised or utilisably converted residual energy flows are re-extracted from the units (10, 11; 21 - 28) or devices connected with these,
    - wherein these residual energy flows are supplied to or removed from the energy transport devices (40 - 46) by means of energy transfer devices, or
    - wherein energy flows are removed from the units (10, 11; 21 - 28) of the printing press or devices connected with these during the operation for printing or processing substrate to ensure their function,
    - where any previously removed energy flows are again supplied to units by means of energy transport devices (40 - 46),
    - wherein at least parts of the energy flows are supplied to or removed from the energy transport devices by means of energy transfer devices and
    - wherein the energy flows removed from a first unit (10, 11; 21 - 28) are at least partially supplied to one or a plurality of other units (10, 11; 21 - 28)
    and
    - wherein excess heat energy from the first units (10, 11; 21 - 28) is transferred to a heat transfer system by means of a heat transport system (40 - 46) and in that the heat energy is controllably supplied to one or a plurality of the second units (10, 11; 21 - 28) for acceptance and
    - wherein a heat transport management is provided in conjunction with the heat transport system (40 - 46),
    - wherein the extracted energy or heat energy is conducted divisibly and/or storably in such a manner,
    - that the energy flows are directed to consumers with currently high energy demand and that the or parts of the excess energy of heat energy is given off to the surroundings by means of a heat exchanger (44) only when no consumer for acceptance is available.
  2. The method according to Claim 1, characterized
    - in that from the operationally secondary heat flows of primary energy-generating first units (28, 33, 51 - 53) energy is absorbed and removed as tertiary heat flows in a heat transport system (40 - 46),
    - in that the energy of the tertiary heat flows are wholly or partly supplied to the second units operationally consuming heat energy as primary energy,
    - such that the primary energy supply of the second units is minimised.
  3. The method according to Claim 1, characterized
    - in that in the second units operationally consuming heat energy as primary energy the primary energy consumption is adapted to an additional energy supply from a heat transfer system,
    - wherein the heat transfer system absorbs heat energy flows from a heat transport system (40 - 46), which absorbs the heat energy from the first units (28, 33, 51 - 53) operationally liberating the heat energy, wherein the heat energy is removed and
    - the heat energy is made available for the second units by means of heat transfer devices.
  4. The method according to any one of the Claims 1 to 3, characterized
    - in that in a system for the heat transport management a process representation of the supply and/or consumed and/or excess energy of heat energy flows in the printing press is created
    - in that the energy or heat energy flows are recorded through measurement and in conjunction with a heat transport management are displayably processed in the heat transport system (40 - 46), and
    - in that in the process a control of the distribution and/or storage of the extracted energy or heat energy is provided,
    - such that the energy flows are transferred to low-loss transport sections and/or to consumers of currently high energy requirement, and
    - wherein controllable parts of the excess energy or heat energy are removed into the surroundings.
