Definitions
- the invention relates to a process for the production of anilox rollers, in particular z.
- anilox rollers those that are used under the name "anilox rollers" in so-called short inking units of offset printing machines to take in conjunction with a doctor blade or a chambered doctor blade paint from a paint reservoir and to promote more rollers in the direction of the printing plate.
- anilox rolls are also used in coating plants to meter the amount of paint to be applied and, in addition to offset printing, are also used in other printing processes, such as flexographic printing or in the corresponding machines, for example
- the etching process has been structured by etching or mechanically engraved by a stylus penetrating into the soft copper skin on a steel roll body, and recently engraved with laser tools as described, for example, in the article "Universal Anilox Rolls for the Printing Press" the magazine “Flexo and Gravure Printing", Issue 2, 2004.
- the anilox rollers intended for use in anilox inking units are usually provided on the surface with a hard ceramic layer for the purpose of longer service life.
- problems occur. Often, after a relatively short lifetime, streaks appear in the print image due to the fact that ceramic particles detach from the anilox roller, jam against the cutting edge of the doctor blade and then generate grooves on the roller surface. The reason for this lies in the manufacturing process of laser engraving. Because there were previously used thermal YAG laser or CO 2 laser whose laser pulses partially evaporate material from the wells produced by them, but partly also drive out in the molten state, in which case the material on both sides of the generated depression as a "mountain" precipitates on the surface.
- Sand grinding passes with a finer diamond abrasive to the desired surface roughness (EP 0 396 114 B1). After each second grinding pass was Measure the roughness and scoop volume of the roller to ensure that the grinding process does not "overrun" the desired optimum, which is a complex process that is difficult to reproduce and takes a long time to complete.
- the recesses in the laser engraving are produced by a repetitively operated short-pulse laser, wherein in each case a plurality of laser pulses are used to work out the depression in the cross-sectional profile.
- Pulse repetition rates do not concentrate in the laser pulses.
- the lasers used according to the invention preferably fiber lasers or disk lasers, deliver laser pulses in the range between 20 picoseconds and 200 nanoseconds and average laser powers in the range between 10 watts to several 100 watts. It is important that the used short-pulse laser provides sufficient energy density to optimally use the built-in light energy for ablation of the material to be processed.
- the incoming material on the average power must be large enough to ablate, for example, in the case of anilox rolls having a ceramics surface with a pick-up volume of typically 3 cm 3 is at least 0.5 cm 3 ceramic material per hour. Because otherwise the processing time for the laser engraving of a roller would be unacceptably long or the simultaneous use of multiple lasers, the plant technical effort will be too large.
- a suitable for the processing of anilox rollers short pulse laser generates z.
- Anilox inking in anilox inking customary Well depths readily reach, wherein for working out the cross-sectional profile in each case a plurality of laser pulses be placed one behind the other, typically 5 to 100 laser pulses depending on the width and depth of the wells or Haschuren.
- Wells with relatively smooth clean flanks can be produced with this number of pulses and, incidentally, the cross-sectional flank shape of the wells or hafors can be influenced in such a way that, compared to the other methods mentioned at the beginning, one is responsible for the ink release / acceptance behavior of the wells good geometry yields.
- the anilox roller is then engraved in several passes, so that the cross-sectional shape is worked out in several superimposed layers by the laser pulses.
- the pulse repetition rate of the laser is several 100,000 kHz.
- an anilox roller for a 35/50 cm printing unit can be engraved within a few hours at speeds between 100 and 1,000 rpm.
- the laser engraving is followed by a finishing step and / or a cleaning step, for. B. in the same clamping of the roller as in the previous laser engraving itself, wherein the finishing step or cleaning step, however, can also be done manually, for example, by polishing or wiping the lasered rollers z. B. with a cleaning agent, either still in the set or after it was taken out of the clamping.
- cleaning the roll in an ultrasonic bath may be sufficient, and in some cases, such a finishing step may be completely eliminated.
- Example 1 a) Was provided with a bearing journal steel roller ST52 with a cylinder length L of 560 mm and a diameter D of 180 mm of the cylinder jacket. This turned into shape roll body was then provided in a plasma spraying on the cylinder jacket with a chromium oxide layer with a thickness of 0.275 mm.
- This system contains a repetitively operated ytterbium fiber laser with a pulse duration of 130 ns at a repetition rate of 500 kHz.
- the average power of the laser was 150 W, it delivered a pulse peak power of
- the hafs are said to extend over the cylinder surface at a line of 90 L / cm in a variety of steep spirals.
- the pulsing of the laser was very synchronized with the speed of the roller.
- the speed was set from 150 W to 750 rpm in consideration of the maximum pulse repetition frequency of 500 kHz and the average power of the laser, in order to achieve the required width and depth of the hurdles.
- 6 pulses resulted over the cross section of the Haschur, with which the cross-sectional shape was machined out of the material, before the pulses in the region of the web between the Haschuren each short interrupted, d. H. there 2 laser pulses were suppressed.
- the advance of the laser unit along the cylinder axis was 5 ⁇ m per revolution of the roll, i. H. at the set speed of 750 rpm, the engraving process over the cylinder length L of 560 millimeters took about 2.4 hours.
- the thus structured anilox roll was then subjected to a second finishing step.
- the engraved surface was in two overflows with a 4000 grain honing stone with a lower contact pressure of about 1 bar at a speed of 200 rev / min, at a feed rate of 600 mm / min. smoothed.
- roller thus treated could then be installed in the printing unit of a sheet-fed offset printing machine type SM52 and provide there as anilox anilox roll their service.
- the roller speed was reduced to 250 rpm, and the axial feed rate was increased to 7.5 ⁇ m / rev at otherwise identical settings for the laser.
- the roller speed was reduced to 250 rpm, and the axial feed rate was increased to 7.5 ⁇ m / rev at otherwise identical settings for the laser.
- the structured anilox roll was not honed again but polished manually for about 10 minutes.
- the thus obtained anilox roll had comparable good properties to those of Example 1.
