Definitions
- the invention relates to an apparatus and a method for processing a digitally printed and continuously conveyed through the device web with a perforating tool for perforating the web transversely to the direction and with a cutting tool for cutting printed sheets from a downstream end of the paper web, each on a first Side of the paper web and are arranged transversely or approximately transversely to the direction of the paper web, and arranged with at least one on one of the first side opposite the second side of the paper web arranged counter tool.
- a generic device and a method for cutting or perforating a digitally printed paper web is known, which is further processed with a perforating and cutting station and with transverse and L Lucassfalz Roaden to sheet with different number pages.
- the perforating and cutting station which perforates the paper web transversely to the running direction, consists of two processing stations arranged along the paper web, a perforating device and a cutting device.
- Such Perforier wisdom is for example in the EP1484145 A2 described in more detail. It comprises a constantly rotating, hardened steel cylinder and a perforating tool which interacts with the steel cylinder and rotates intermittently about an axis.
- the cutting device of EP2818331 A2 has a guillotine-like knife designed cutting tool with which the paper web can be cut over its entire width. During the cut, the paper web stops for a short time. With a compensation device arranged between the perforating device and the cutting device, in which the paper web is deflected by a plurality of rollers, the speed differences between the perforating device and the cutting device resulting from the stopping and accelerating process are compensated. After perforating and cutting, the printed sheets separated from the paper web can be folded once or several times transversely and longitudinally to the running direction, before they are then stacked into a book block and transported away.
- perforating in the prior art and in the context of this application is meant a partial severing, partial cutting or deformation such as e.g. a squeezing of the paper web understood at a point at which the paper is folded later.
- cutting is meant a complete severing of the paper web.
- a device for feeding single sheets to a printer comprising means for separating the cut sheets from a paper web moved periodically in a conveying direction, is disclosed in US Pat EP1394091 A1 disclosed.
- the individual sheets are cut off from the paper web by means of a transverse to the conveyor, rotating about an axis cutting drum, which has a cutting tool, and fed to the printer with a conveyor.
- the cutting drum is driven by a drive motor via a toothed belt.
- the rotating cutting tool acts together with a stationary counter tool, which is arranged on the other side of the paper web.
- Another device for cutting a paper web is in the EP1186561 A1 disclosed. It has a rotating cutting cylinder, each receiving at least one cutting tool and a perforating tool. Trained as a knife tools of the cutting cylinder interact with a fixed counter tool. The paper web guided between the cutting cylinder and the stationary counter tool is then successively cut or perforated according to the arrangement of the cutting and perforating tools on the circumference of the rotating cutting drum. The paper web is processed with the principle of a paper cut, in which there is no sudden processing over the entire width of the paper web, but in which only a portion of the cutting blade with the counter blade is engaged. The cutting area moves from one edge of the paper web to the other when cutting.
- the cutting drum is tilted in the plane of the paper web and against the counter tool by an acute angle. If sheets of paper of a different format are to be cut from the paper web, or if the perforation is to be arranged at another location on the printed sheet, the position of the cutting and / or perforating tools on the cutting drum must be changed. Alternatively, the cutting drum may be replaced by another cutting drum with appropriately attached cutting and perforating tools. Adjusting the distances from cut to cut, from cut to perforation and from perforation to perforation, as well as a change in the sequence of operations Cutting and perforating is only possible when the machine is at a standstill and with manual intervention.
- the present invention has for its object to provide a method and an apparatus with which a digitally printed and continuously conveyed paper web can optionally be perforated or cut at high speeds in variable intervals during the run.
- the device should be simple and space-saving and thus can be realized inexpensively.
- the device for receiving the perforating tool and the cutting tool has a common tool carrier and for receiving the at least one counter tool a rotating cutting drum with a transversely or approximately transversely aligned to the direction of the paper web axis of rotation and the perforating and the cutting tool spaced from each other are mounted on the tool carrier and the tool carrier is displaceable in two working positions, in each of which the perforating tool or the Schneidtechnikezug for processing the paper web with the at least one counter tool can be brought into engagement.
- a single, compact processing station on a printed on a digitally printed and continuously conveyed paper web printed sheet optionally no, one or more perforations are made one behind the other and printed sheets are separated with the cutting tool of the paper web.
- Continuous transport means uninterrupted transport. This can be done with constant or approximately constant speed.
- a transport in which the paper web is repeatedly stopped or almost stopped during the processing not a continuous transport in the sense of this application.
- the distances between the processing of the paper web with the perforating or cutting tool and the sequence of processing can be adapted continuously to the printing sheet printed on the paper web.
- the printed sheets can differ in format and the number of pages, or the number of transverse perforations along which the printed sheets are folded transversely downstream of the device according to the invention.
- the tool holder is pivotable about a pivot axis aligned transversely or approximately transversely to the direction of travel T of the paper web and parallel to a transport plane paper web about a pivot angle between the two working positions, so that either the perforating or the cutting tool is engageable with the at least one counter tool. Due to the pivoting movement about a relatively small pivot angle, when changing between the working position, the tools only a minimal way with low height change back.
- the swing angle has a preferred value which is in a range between 5 ° and 90 °. More preferably, the swivel angle is in a range between 15 ° and 30 °.
- the change in height of the tools has the advantage that the tools are spaced from the paper web when they are not in their working position. Next less mass is accelerated by the pivoting movement and slowed down again, as if the entire tool carrier would have to be moved in a linear direction between two working positions. Thanks to the small path the tools can take when swiveling around the swivel angle, the change from one to the other working position can be made very quickly and in the run. In addition, the storage of the tool carrier can be stiff, simple, inexpensive and save space.
- the axis of rotation of the cutting drum and the pivot axis of the tool carrier are arranged at an acute angle to each other in a plane parallel to the transport plane of the paper web, so that according to the principle of a shear cut a cutting edge of the perforating or a cutting edge of the cutter train only in one Part of its length with the at least one counter tool can be brought into engagement.
- the cutting area thereby moves when processing from one edge of the paper web transversely to the direction of the other edge. Since the perforation or the cut does not take place with one stroke over the entire width of the paper web, the forces occurring during processing and the noise emissions can be significantly reduced. At the same time, the cutting quality and the service life of the cutting tools are increased by the paper cutting.
- the tool carrier for carrying out the pivoting movement via a crank drive with a drive axle of a third drive motor wherein the crank mechanism has a push rod which has a first axis with a, arranged on the drive axle of the third drive motor crank and a second axis is connected to the tool carrier.
- the crank mechanism can be converted into a pivoting movement of the tool carrier in a simple and cost-effective manner, the rotational movement of the third drive motor without the third drive motor must stop in one of the working positions and change the direction of rotation. Due to the crank mechanism, a slight deviation of the rotational position of the third drive motor in the two dead centers of the tool carrier hardly affects its position for processing the paper web.
- the third drive motor may be arranged upstream or downstream of the pivot axis of the tool carrier.
- the third drive motor is designed as a gearless torque motor. Torque motors have despite high torques even at low speeds, a small size and it can be dispensed with a gearbox. This results in a compact, backlash-free and cost-effective drive.
- the first axis, the second axis and the drive axis of the third drive motor are parallel to each other. Further, the first axis and the drive axis are spaced apart from each other by a crank radius. Due to the parallel axes, the bearings in the push rod and in the crank can be made simple and inexpensive, since hardly any axially acting forces arise but a direct power flow from the tool carrier to the machine frame is present. The length of the crank radius has an influence on the tilt angle of the tool carrier.
- first axis, the second axis and the drive axis of the third drive motor are each arranged in a plane when the tool carrier is in one of the two working positions.
- the cutting forces occurring during the processing of the paper web are transferred from the cutting and perforating tools via the tool carrier, the push rod and the crank very directly to the machine frame, without any disturbing torque being transmitted to the drive axle of the third drive motor.
- the third drive motor can be made smaller, which leads to cost savings.
- the tool carrier can be brought into a rest position between the two working positions, in which neither the perforating tool nor the cutting tool is in engagement with the counter-tool.
- the cutting drum is driven by the at least one counter tool by a second drive motor, wherein the second drive motor is connected to a drive control for controlling its rotational speed and angular position.
- the third drive motor and a first drive motor of a drive device for the transport of the paper web are likewise connected to the drive control. This can be ensured that these two drive motors be controlled precisely to control their position or their angle of rotation and their speed. Furthermore, individual changes and / or corrections of their rotational position and their rotational speed can easily be made by the drive control taking into account the motion profiles of the other drives connected to the drive control.
- a sensor connected to the drive control is arranged upstream of the cutting drum, with which an identification feature applied to the paper web can be detected.
- information about the actual position of the sheets printed on the paper web and / or the type of processing of the paper web can be transmitted in a simple manner to the drive controller or, on the basis of the identification feature, information about the processing of the printed sheets can be retrieved from a higher-level controller.
- the cutting drum, the second drive motor, the tool carrier and the third drive motor are mounted in a common machine frame.
- the exact alignment of the axis of rotation of the cutting drum to the pivot axis of the tool carrier and the exact arrangement of the crank mechanism and the third drive motor can be ensured.
- Next allows the common machine frame assembly and adjustment of the listed components outside the range of motion of the paper web and the cut sheet.
- the setting of the perforating tool and of the cutting tool which also interact with the at least one counter tool, is simplified with the common machine frame.
- the machine frame is formed with an adjustment relative to the paper web about a pivot point parallel to the transport plane of the paper web pivot.
- the position of the tools arranged in the machine frame must be adjusted because of the cutting principle of the paper cut, so that the operations perpendicular to the direction of the paper web or perpendicular to the edges of the paper web.
- the adjusting device comprises an adjusting motor which is connected to the drive control or is connected to a higher-level control, as well as, for example, an adjusting spindle drivingly connected to the adjusting motor.
- the object is also achieved by a method in which the at least one counter-tool rotates about a transverse or approximately transversely to the direction of the paper web aligned axis of rotation and in which a, the perforating and the cutting tool receiving, tool carrier for processing the paper web optionally in each one of two working positions is brought and thereby the perforating tool or the cutting tool cooperates with the at least one counter tool and the paper web perforated transversely to its direction or cut off from a downstream end of the paper sheet printing sheet.
- a single processing station on one, printed on a digitally printed and continuously conveyed paper web printed sheet optionally no, one or more perforations are made one behind the other and printed sheets are separated with the cutting tool from the paper web.
- the distances between the processing of the paper web with the perforating or cutting tool and the sequence of processing - perforate or cut - can be adapted continuously to the sheet printed on the paper web.
- the printed sheets can differ in format and the number of pages, or the number of transverse perforations, along which the printed sheets are folded laterally downstream of the inventive device.
- the tool carrier pivots about a pivot axis transversely or approximately transversely to the running direction of the paper web and parallel to a transport plane of the paper web by a pivot angle between two working positions back and forth in each of the two working positions in which the tool carrier stands still, either the perforating tool or the cutting tool comes into engagement with the at least one counter tool and perforates or cuts the paper web.
- the swivel angle can be for example 20 °. It is advantageous if it is in a range between 15 ° and 30 °. It should not be less than 5 ° and not more than 90 °.
- the cutting quality and the cutting accuracy is significantly higher with the described method in which a paper web is cut between a moving or a rotating and a standing tools, as compared to a machining between two moving tools.
- the continuously transported paper web is alternately perforated by the perforating tool and cut by the cutting tool, wherein a third drive motor connected to the tool carrier via a crank drive rotates at a constant or approximately constant speed.
- a third drive motor connected to the tool carrier via a crank drive rotates at a constant or approximately constant speed.
- the inertia of the third drive motor and the crank gear act in the two dead centers of the tool carrier, which correspond to the working positions, as a flywheel and help to accelerate the tool carrier after the short stoppage again.

Unter "Perforieren" wird im Stand der Technik und im Rahmen dieser Anmeldung ein teilweises Durchtrennen, teilweises Schneiden oder ein Verformen wie z.B. ein Quetschen der Papierbahn an einer Stelle verstanden, an der das Papier später gefalzt wird. Unter "Schneiden" wird ein vollständiges Durchtrennen der Papierbahn verstanden.By "perforating" in the prior art and in the context of this application is meant a partial severing, partial cutting or deformation such as e.g. a squeezing of the paper web understood at a point at which the paper is folded later. By "cutting" is meant a complete severing of the paper web.
Mit einer herkömmlich bedruckten Papierbahn, auf der sich das Druckbild entsprechend dem Umfang des Druckzylinders wiederholt, werden jeweils gleiche Druckbogen einer ersten Art hergestellt. Nach einer Umstellung werden jeweils Druckbogen einer zweiten, dritten, usw. Art hergestellt. Ein Buch oder ein Buchteil sowie eine Broschüre oder einer Zeitung wird durch Zusammentragen von mehreren Druckbogen, die sich voneinander unterscheiden, erzeugt. Vor dem Zusammentragen werden die unterschiedlichen Druckbogen jeweils beispielsweise von einem Stapel gleicher und miteinander hergestellten Druckbogen vereinzelt. Demgegenüber werden bei einer digital bedruckten Papierbahn ganze Bücher oder Buchteile hintereinander auf die Papierbahn aufgedruckt. Die sequentiell aufgedruckten Druckbogen können unterschiedliche Seitenzahlen aufweisen und bilden nach Schneiden, Falzen und Stapeln der sich folgenden Druckbogen ein Buch oder einen Buchteil.With a conventionally printed paper web on which the printed image is repeated in accordance with the circumference of the printing cylinder, in each case identical printed sheets of a first type are produced. After a conversion each sheet of a second, third, etc. type are produced. A book or a book part as well as a booklet or a newspaper is created by collecting several printed sheets, which differ from each other. Before collating, the different printed sheets are each separated, for example, from a stack of the same printed sheets produced with each other. In contrast, in a digitally printed paper web whole books or book parts are printed one behind the other on the paper web. The sequentially printed sheets can have different page numbers and form after cutting, folding and stacking the following sheets a book or a book part.

Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Verfahren und eine Vorrichtung zu schaffen, mit dem bzw. mit der eine digital bedruckte und kontinuierlich geförderte Papierbahn auch bei hohen Geschwindigkeiten in während dem Lauf veränderbaren Abständen wahlweise perforiert oder geschnitten werden kann. Zudem soll die Vorrichtung einfach und platzsparend aufgebaut sein und damit kostengünstig realisiert werden können.The present invention has for its object to provide a method and an apparatus with which a digitally printed and continuously conveyed paper web can optionally be perforated or cut at high speeds in variable intervals during the run. In addition, the device should be simple and space-saving and thus can be realized inexpensively.
Die Aufgabe ist bei einer gattungsgemässen Vorrichtung dadurch gelöst, dass die Vorrichtung zur Aufnahme des Perforierwerkzeugs und des Schneidwerkzeugs einen gemeinsamen Werkzeugträger sowie zur Aufnahme des mindestens einen Gegenwerkzeugs eine rotierende Schneidtrommel mit einer quer oder annähernd quer zur Laufrichtung der Papierbahn ausgerichteten Rotationsachse aufweist und das Perforierwerkzeug und das Schneidwerkzeug beabstandet voneinander auf dem Werkzeugträger befestigt sind und der Werkzeugträger in zwei Arbeitsstellungen versetzbar ist, in denen jeweils das Perforierwerkzeug oder das Schneidwerkezug zum Bearbeiten der Papierbahn mit dem mindestens einen Gegenwerkzeug in Eingriff bringbar ist.The object is achieved in a generic device in that the device for receiving the perforating tool and the cutting tool has a common tool carrier and for receiving the at least one counter tool a rotating cutting drum with a transversely or approximately transversely aligned to the direction of the paper web axis of rotation and the perforating and the cutting tool spaced from each other are mounted on the tool carrier and the tool carrier is displaceable in two working positions, in each of which the perforating tool or the Schneidwerkezug for processing the paper web with the at least one counter tool can be brought into engagement.
Damit können in einer einzigen, kompakten Bearbeitungsstation an einem, auf einer digital bedruckten und kontinuierlich geförderten Papierbahn aufgedruckten Druckbogen wahlweise keine, eine oder mehrere Perforationen hintereinander vorgenommen und Druckbogen mit dem Schneidwerkzeug von der Papierbahn abgetrennt werden. Unter kontinuierlichem Transport wird ein ununterbrochener Transport verstanden. Dieser kann mit konstanter oder annähernd konstanter Geschwindigkeit erfolgen. Demgegenüber entspricht ein Transport, bei dem die Papierbahn bei der Bearbeitung wiederholend angehalten oder nahezu angehalten wird, nicht einem kontinuierlichen Transport im Sinne dieser Anmeldung. Die Abstände zwischen den Bearbeitungen der Papierbahn mit dem Perforier- oder Schneidwerkzeug sowie die Abfolge der Bearbeitung kann laufend an die auf der Papierbahn aufgedruckten Druckbogen angepasst werden. Die Druckbogen können sich dabei in Format und der Anzahl Seiten, beziehungsweise der Anzahl der Querperforierungen, entlang derer die Druckbogen stromab der erfindungsgemässen Vorrichtung quergefalzt werden, unterscheiden.Thus, in a single, compact processing station on a printed on a digitally printed and continuously conveyed paper web printed sheet optionally no, one or more perforations are made one behind the other and printed sheets are separated with the cutting tool of the paper web. Continuous transport means uninterrupted transport. This can be done with constant or approximately constant speed. In contrast, a transport in which the paper web is repeatedly stopped or almost stopped during the processing, not a continuous transport in the sense of this application. The distances between the processing of the paper web with the perforating or cutting tool and the sequence of processing can be adapted continuously to the printing sheet printed on the paper web. The printed sheets can differ in format and the number of pages, or the number of transverse perforations along which the printed sheets are folded transversely downstream of the device according to the invention.
Nach einer Weiterbildung der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, dass der Werkzeugträger um eine quer oder annähernd quer zur Laufrichtung T der Papierbahn und parallel zu einer Transportebene Papierbahn ausgerichtete Schwenkachse um einen Schwenkwinkel zwischen den beiden Arbeitsstellungen hin und her schwenkbar angeordnet ist, so dass entweder das Perforierwerkzeug oder das Schneidwerkzeug in Eingriff mit dem mindestens einen Gegenwerkzeug bringbar ist. Durch die Schwenkbewegung um einen verhältnismässig kleinen Schwenkwinkel, bei einem Wechsel zwischen der Arbeitsposition legen die Werkzeuge nur einen minimalen Weg mit geringer Höhenänderung zurück. Der Schwenkwinkel weist einen bevorzugten Wert auf, der in einem Bereich zwischen 5° und 90° liegt. Noch bevorzugter liegt der Schwenkwinkel in einem Bereich zwischen 15° und 30°. Die Höhenänderung der Werkzeuge hat den Vorteil, dass die Werkzeuge von der Papierbahn beabstandet angeordnet sind, wenn sie nicht in ihrer Arbeitsposition sind. Weiter wird durch die Schwenkbewegung weniger Masse beschleunigt und wieder abgebremst, als wenn der gesamte Werkzeugträger in linearer Richtung zwischen zwei Arbeitspositionen verschoben werden müsste. Dank dem kleinen Weg, den die Werkzeuge beim Schwenken um den Schwenkwinkel zurücklegen kann der Wechsel von einer in die andere Arbeitsposition sehr schnell und im Lauf vorgenommen werden. Zudem kann die Lagerung des Werkzeugträgers steif, einfach, kostengünstig und platzsparend ausgeführt werden.According to a development of the invention, it is provided that the tool holder is pivotable about a pivot axis aligned transversely or approximately transversely to the direction of travel T of the paper web and parallel to a transport plane paper web about a pivot angle between the two working positions, so that either the perforating or the cutting tool is engageable with the at least one counter tool. Due to the pivoting movement about a relatively small pivot angle, when changing between the working position, the tools only a minimal way with low height change back. The swing angle has a preferred value which is in a range between 5 ° and 90 °. More preferably, the swivel angle is in a range between 15 ° and 30 °. The change in height of the tools has the advantage that the tools are spaced from the paper web when they are not in their working position. Next less mass is accelerated by the pivoting movement and slowed down again, as if the entire tool carrier would have to be moved in a linear direction between two working positions. Thanks to the small path the tools can take when swiveling around the swivel angle, the change from one to the other working position can be made very quickly and in the run. In addition, the storage of the tool carrier can be stiff, simple, inexpensive and save space.
Es ist vorteilhaft, wenn die Rotationsachse der Schneidtrommel und die Schwenkachse des Werkzeugträgers in einer zur Transportebene der Papierbahn parallelen Ebene in einem spitzen Winkel zueinander angeordnet sind, so dass nach dem Prinzip eines Scherenschnitts eine Schneide des Perforierwerkzeugs oder eine Schneide des Schneidwerkezugs jeweils nur in einem Teilbereich ihrer Länge mit dem mindestens einen Gegenwerkzeug in Eingriff bringbar ist. Der Schneidbereich bewegt sich dadurch beim Bearbeiten von einer Kante der Papierbahn quer zur Laufrichtung zur anderen Kante. Da die Perforierung oder der Schnitt nicht mit einem Schlag über die ganze Breite der Papierbahn erfolgen, können die beim Bearbeitenden auftretenden Kräfte sowie die Lärmemissionen deutlich reduziert werden. Gleichzeitig wird durch den Scherenschnitt die Schnittqualität und die Standzeit der Schneidwerkzeuge erhöht.It is advantageous if the axis of rotation of the cutting drum and the pivot axis of the tool carrier are arranged at an acute angle to each other in a plane parallel to the transport plane of the paper web, so that according to the principle of a shear cut a cutting edge of the perforating or a cutting edge of the cutter train only in one Part of its length with the at least one counter tool can be brought into engagement. The cutting area thereby moves when processing from one edge of the paper web transversely to the direction of the other edge. Since the perforation or the cut does not take place with one stroke over the entire width of the paper web, the forces occurring during processing and the noise emissions can be significantly reduced. At the same time, the cutting quality and the service life of the cutting tools are increased by the paper cutting.
Weiter ist es vorteilhaft, wenn der Werkzeugträger zum Ausführen der Schwenkbewegung über einen Kurbeltrieb mit einer Antriebsachse eines dritten Antriebsmotors verbunden ist, wobei der Kurbeltrieb eine Schubstange aufweist, die über eine erste Achse mit einer, auf der Antriebsachse des dritten Antriebsmotors angeordneten Kurbel und über eine zweite Achse mit dem Werkzeugträger verbunden ist. Mit dem Kurbeltrieb kann auf einfache und kostengünstige Weise die Drehbewegung des dritten Antriebmotors in eine Schwenkbewegung des Werkzeugträges umgewandelt werden, ohne dass der dritte Antriebsmotor in einer der Arbeitsstellungen anhalten und die Drehrichtung ändern muss. Aufgrund des Kurbeltriebs wirkt sich eine geringe Abweichung der Drehposition des dritten Antriebsmotors in den beiden Totpunkten des Werkzeugträgers kaum auf dessen Position zum Bearbeiten der Papierbahn aus. Der dritte Antriebsmotor kann stromauf oder stromab der Schwenkachse des Werkzeugträgers angeordnet sein.Further, it is advantageous if the tool carrier for carrying out the pivoting movement via a crank drive with a drive axle of a third drive motor is connected, wherein the crank mechanism has a push rod which has a first axis with a, arranged on the drive axle of the third drive motor crank and a second axis is connected to the tool carrier. With the crank mechanism can be converted into a pivoting movement of the tool carrier in a simple and cost-effective manner, the rotational movement of the third drive motor without the third drive motor must stop in one of the working positions and change the direction of rotation. Due to the crank mechanism, a slight deviation of the rotational position of the third drive motor in the two dead centers of the tool carrier hardly affects its position for processing the paper web. The third drive motor may be arranged upstream or downstream of the pivot axis of the tool carrier.
Nach einer weiteren Ausführungsform ist der dritte Antriebsmotor als getriebeloser Torquemotor ausgebildet. Torquemotoren weisen trotz hohen Drehmomenten auch bei kleinen Drehzahlen, eine kleine Baugrösse auf und es kann auf ein Getriebe verzichtet werden. Daraus resultiert ein kompakter, spielfreier und kostengünstiger Antrieb.According to a further embodiment, the third drive motor is designed as a gearless torque motor. Torque motors have despite high torques even at low speeds, a small size and it can be dispensed with a gearbox. This results in a compact, backlash-free and cost-effective drive.
Nach einer nächsten vorteilhaften Ausführungsform der Vorrichtung sind die erste Achse, die zweite Achse und die Antriebsachse des dritten Antriebsmotors parallel zueinander. Weiter sind die erste Achse und die Antriebsachse um einen Kurbelradius beabstandet voneinander angeordnet. Durch die parallelen Achsen können die Lagerstellen in der Schubstange und in der Kurbel einfach und kostengünstig ausgeführt werden, da kaum axial wirkende Kräfte entstehen sondern ein direkter Kraftfluss vom Werkzeugträger zum Maschinengestell vorliegt. Die Länge des Kurbelradius hat einen Einfluss auf den Schwenkwinkel des Werkzeugträgers.According to a next advantageous embodiment of the device, the first axis, the second axis and the drive axis of the third drive motor are parallel to each other. Further, the first axis and the drive axis are spaced apart from each other by a crank radius. Due to the parallel axes, the bearings in the push rod and in the crank can be made simple and inexpensive, since hardly any axially acting forces arise but a direct power flow from the tool carrier to the machine frame is present. The length of the crank radius has an influence on the tilt angle of the tool carrier.
Weiter ist es vorteilhaft, wenn die erste Achse, die zweite Achse und die Antriebsachse des dritten Antriebsmotors jeweils in einer Ebene angeordnet sind, wenn sich der Werkzeugträger in einer der beiden Arbeitsstellungen befindet. Dadurch werden die beim Bearbeiten der Papierbahn auftretenden Schnittkräfte von den Schneid- und Perforierwerkzeugen über den Werkzeugträger, die Schubstange und die Kurbel sehr direkt auf das Maschinengestell übertragen, ohne dass ein störendes Drehmoment auf die Antriebsachse des dritten Antriebsmotors übertragen wird. Damit kann der dritte Antriebsmotor kleiner dimensioniert werden, was zu Kosteneinsparungen führt.Further, it is advantageous if the first axis, the second axis and the drive axis of the third drive motor are each arranged in a plane when the tool carrier is in one of the two working positions. As a result, the cutting forces occurring during the processing of the paper web are transferred from the cutting and perforating tools via the tool carrier, the push rod and the crank very directly to the machine frame, without any disturbing torque being transmitted to the drive axle of the third drive motor. Thus, the third drive motor can be made smaller, which leads to cost savings.
In einer nächsten Weiterbildung der Erfindung ist der Werkzeugträger in eine Ruhestellung zwischen den beiden Arbeitsstellungen bringbar ist, in der weder das Perforierwerkzeug noch das Schneidwerkzeug im Eingriff mit dem Gegenwerkzeug ist. Beim Einrichten einer Maschine ist es vorteilhaft, wenn die Papierbahn durch alle Bearbeitungsstationen hindurch geführt werden kann, ohne dass sie bereits perforiert oder von ihrem Ende Bogen abgeschnitten werden. Weiter können in der Ruhestellung auch sehr lange Bogen- bzw. Abschnittslängen erzeugt werden, da die Schneidtrommel weiterdrehen kann und eine nächster Schnitt erst durch das Schwenken des Messerträgers aus der Ruhestellung in eine Arbeitsstellung bestimmt werden kann.In a next development of the invention, the tool carrier can be brought into a rest position between the two working positions, in which neither the perforating tool nor the cutting tool is in engagement with the counter-tool. When setting up a machine, it is advantageous if the paper web can be passed through all the processing stations without being already perforated or cut off from its end. Further, in the rest position also very long arc or section lengths can be generated because the cutting drum can continue to rotate and a next cut can only be determined by the pivoting of the knife carrier from the rest position to a working position.
In einer weiteren Ausführungsform der Erfindung wird die Schneidtrommel mit dem mindestens einen Gegenwerkzeug durch einen zweiten Antriebsmotor angetrieben, wobei der zweite Antriebsmotor mit einer Antriebssteuerung zur Regelung seiner Drehzahl und Winkelposition verbunden ist. Dadurch können auf einfache Weise Bogen mit unterschiedlicher Länge vom stromabwärtigen Ende der Papierbahn abgeschnitten werden und Perforierungen an beliebiger Stelle vorgenommen werden. Die Verbindung mit der Antriebssteuerung gewährleistet eine präzise Steuerung der Lage und Drehzahl der Schneidtrommel.In a further embodiment of the invention, the cutting drum is driven by the at least one counter tool by a second drive motor, wherein the second drive motor is connected to a drive control for controlling its rotational speed and angular position. As a result, sheets of different lengths can be easily cut off from the downstream end of the paper web and perforations can be made anywhere. The connection with the drive control ensures precise control of the position and speed of the cutting drum.
Weiter ist es vorteilhaft, wenn der dritte Antriebsmotor und ein erster Antriebsmotor einer Antriebseinrichtung für den Transport der Papierbahn ebenfalls mit der Antriebssteuerung verbunden sind. Damit kann sichergestellt werden, dass auch diese beiden Antriebsmotoren zur Steuerung ihrer Lage bzw. ihres Drehwinkels und ihrer Drehzahl präzise angesteuert werden. Weiter können über die Antriebssteuerung einfach individuelle Änderungen und/ oder Korrekturen ihrer Drehstellung und ihrer Drehzahl unter Berücksichtigung der Bewegungsprofile der anderen, mit der Antriebssteuerung verbundenen Antriebe vorgenommen werden.Further, it is advantageous if the third drive motor and a first drive motor of a drive device for the transport of the paper web are likewise connected to the drive control. This can be ensured that these two drive motors be controlled precisely to control their position or their angle of rotation and their speed. Furthermore, individual changes and / or corrections of their rotational position and their rotational speed can easily be made by the drive control taking into account the motion profiles of the other drives connected to the drive control.
Gemäss einer weiteren Ausführungsform ist stromauf der Schneidtrommel ein mit der Antriebssteuerung verbundener Sensor angeordnet, mit dem ein auf die Papierbahn aufgebrachtes Identifikationsmerkmal erfassbar ist. Damit können Informationen zur Ist-Lage der auf der Papierbahn aufgedruckten Bogen und/oder zur Art der Bearbeitung der Papierbahn auf einfache Weise der Antriebssteuerung übermittelt werden oder aufgrund des Identifikationsmerkmals Informationen zur Bearbeitung de Druckbogen von einer übergeordneten Steuerung abgerufen werden.According to a further embodiment, a sensor connected to the drive control is arranged upstream of the cutting drum, with which an identification feature applied to the paper web can be detected. In this way, information about the actual position of the sheets printed on the paper web and / or the type of processing of the paper web can be transmitted in a simple manner to the drive controller or, on the basis of the identification feature, information about the processing of the printed sheets can be retrieved from a higher-level controller.
Entsprechend einer nächsten Ausführungsform der Vorrichtung sind die Schneidtrommel, der zweite Antriebsmotor, der Werkzeugträger und der dritte Antriebsmotor in einem gemeinsamen Maschinengestell gelagert. Die exakte Ausrichtung der Rotationsachse der Schneidtrommel zur Schwenkachse des Werkzeugträgers sowie die genau Anordnung des Kurbeltriebs und des dritten Antriebsmotors kann so sichergestellt werden. Weiter ermöglicht das gemeinsame Maschinengestell eine Montage und Einstellung der aufgeführten Bauteile ausserhalb des Bewegungsraumes der Papierbahn und der geschnittenen Druckbogen. Weiter wird mit dem gemeinsamen Maschinengestell auch das Einstellen des Perforierwerkzeugs und des Schneidwerkzeugs welche beide mit dem mindestens einen Gegenwerkzeug zusammenwirken, vereinfacht.According to a next embodiment of the device, the cutting drum, the second drive motor, the tool carrier and the third drive motor are mounted in a common machine frame. The exact alignment of the axis of rotation of the cutting drum to the pivot axis of the tool carrier and the exact arrangement of the crank mechanism and the third drive motor can be ensured. Next allows the common machine frame assembly and adjustment of the listed components outside the range of motion of the paper web and the cut sheet. Furthermore, the setting of the perforating tool and of the cutting tool, which also interact with the at least one counter tool, is simplified with the common machine frame.
Nach einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausführungsform ist das Maschinengestell mit einer Verstelleinrichtung gegenüber der Papierbahn um einen Drehpunkt parallel zur Transportebene der Papierbahn verschwenkbar ausgebildet. Bei Änderungen der Länge von auf der Papierbahn aufgedruckten Seiten beziehungsweise Änderungen der Abstände zwischen zwei Bearbeitungen - einer Perforation oder einem Schnitt - muss die Lage der im Maschinengestell angeordneten Werkzeuge wegen dem Schneidprinzip des Scherenschnitts angepasst werden, damit die Bearbeitungen senkrecht zur Laufrichtung der Papierbahn bzw. senkrecht zu den Kanten der Papierbahn erfolgt. Mit der Verstelleinrichtung kann das Ändern der Lage des Maschinengestells um den Drehpunkt einfach und in kurzer Zeit erfolgen. Vorteilhafterweise umfasst die Verstelleinrichtung einen Verstellmotor auf, der mit der Antriebssteuerung bzw. mit einer übergeordneten Steuerung verbunden ist, sowie beispielsweise eine mit dem Verstellmotor antriebsverbundene Verstellspindel.According to a further advantageous embodiment, the machine frame is formed with an adjustment relative to the paper web about a pivot point parallel to the transport plane of the paper web pivot. In the case of changes in the length of pages printed on the paper web or changes in the distances between two processes - a perforation or a cut - the position of the tools arranged in the machine frame must be adjusted because of the cutting principle of the paper cut, so that the operations perpendicular to the direction of the paper web or perpendicular to the edges of the paper web. With the adjustment, changing the position of the machine frame around the pivot point can be done easily and in a short time. Advantageously, the adjusting device comprises an adjusting motor which is connected to the drive control or is connected to a higher-level control, as well as, for example, an adjusting spindle drivingly connected to the adjusting motor.
Die Aufgabe wird zudem durch ein Verfahren gelöst, bei dem das mindestens eine Gegenwerkzeug um eine quer oder annähernd quer zur Laufrichtung der Papierbahn ausgerichtete Rotationsachse dreht und bei dem ein, das Perforierwerkzeug und das Schneidwerkzeug aufnehmender, Werkzeugträger zum Bearbeiten der Papierbahn wahlweise in jeweils eine von zwei Arbeitsstellungen gebracht wird und dadurch das Perforierwerkzeug oder das Schneidwerkzeug mit dem mindestens einen Gegenwerkzeug zusammenwirkt und die Papierbahn quer zu ihrer Laufrichtung perforiert oder von einem stromabwärtigen Ende der Papierbahn Druckbogen abschneidet. Damit können in einer einzigen Bearbeitungsstation an einem, auf einer digital bedruckten und kontinuierlich geförderten Papierbahn aufgedruckten Druckbogen wahlweise keine, eine oder mehrere Perforationen hintereinander vorgenommen und Druckbogen mit dem Schneidwerkzeug von der Papierbahn abgetrennt werden. Die Abstände zwischen den Bearbeitungen der Papierbahn mit dem Perforier- oder Schneidwerkzeug sowie die Abfolge der Bearbeitung - perforieren oder schneiden - kann laufend an die auf der Papierbahn aufgedruckten Druckbogen angepasst werden. Die Druckbogen können sich dabei in Format und der Anzahl Seiten, beziehungsweise der Anzahl der Querperforierungen, entlang derer die Druckbogen stromab der erfindungsgemässen Vorrichtung Quergefalzt werden, unterscheiden.The object is also achieved by a method in which the at least one counter-tool rotates about a transverse or approximately transversely to the direction of the paper web aligned axis of rotation and in which a, the perforating and the cutting tool receiving, tool carrier for processing the paper web optionally in each one of two working positions is brought and thereby the perforating tool or the cutting tool cooperates with the at least one counter tool and the paper web perforated transversely to its direction or cut off from a downstream end of the paper sheet printing sheet. Thus, in one single processing station on one, printed on a digitally printed and continuously conveyed paper web printed sheet optionally no, one or more perforations are made one behind the other and printed sheets are separated with the cutting tool from the paper web. The distances between the processing of the paper web with the perforating or cutting tool and the sequence of processing - perforate or cut - can be adapted continuously to the sheet printed on the paper web. The printed sheets can differ in format and the number of pages, or the number of transverse perforations, along which the printed sheets are folded laterally downstream of the inventive device.
Gemäss einer vorteilhaften Ausführungsform des Verfahrens schwenkt der Werkzeugträger um eine Schwenkachse quer oder annähernd quer zur Laufrichtung der Papierbahn und parallel zu einer Transportebene der Papierbahn um einen Schwenkwinkel zwischen zwei Arbeitsstellungen hin und her wobei in jeder der beiden Arbeitsstellungen, in welcher der Werkzeugträger still steht, entweder das Perforierwerkzeug oder das Schneidwerkzeug in Eingriff mit dem mindestens einen Gegenwerkzeug kommt und die Papierbahn perforiert oder schneidet. Der Schwenkwinkel kann beispielsweise 20° betragen. Es ist vorteilhaft, wenn er in einem Bereich zwischen 15° und 30° liegt. Er sollte aber nicht kleiner als 5° und nicht grösser als 90° sein. Die Schnittqualität und die Schnittgenauigkeit ist mit dem beschriebenen Verfahren, bei dem eine Papierbahn zwischen einem bewegten bzw. rotierenden und einem stehenden Werkzeugen geschnitten wird, deutlich höher als bei einer Bearbeitung zwischen zwei sich bewegenden Werkzeugen. Durch die Schwenkbewegung des Werkzeugträgers um die Schwenkachse wird auf einfache und kostengünstige Weise sichergestellt, dass jeweils eines der beiden auf dem Werkzeugträger befestigen Werkzeuge in einer Bearbeitungsposition mit dem mindesten einen Gegenwerkzeug der Schneidtrommel im Eingriff steht und gleichzeitig das jeweils andere Werkzeug von der Papierbahn und der Bearbeitungsposition beabstandet ist.According to an advantageous embodiment of the method, the tool carrier pivots about a pivot axis transversely or approximately transversely to the running direction of the paper web and parallel to a transport plane of the paper web by a pivot angle between two working positions back and forth in each of the two working positions in which the tool carrier stands still, either the perforating tool or the cutting tool comes into engagement with the at least one counter tool and perforates or cuts the paper web. The swivel angle can be for example 20 °. It is advantageous if it is in a range between 15 ° and 30 °. It should not be less than 5 ° and not more than 90 °. The cutting quality and the cutting accuracy is significantly higher with the described method in which a paper web is cut between a moving or a rotating and a standing tools, as compared to a machining between two moving tools. By the pivoting movement of the tool carrier about the pivot axis is ensured in a simple and cost-effective manner, that in each case one of the two fastened on the tool carrier tools in a machining position with the at least one counter tool of the cutting drum is engaged and at the same time the other tool is spaced from the paper web and the processing position.
Nach einer nächsten vorteilhaften Ausführungsform des Verfahrens wird die kontinuierlich transportierte Papierbahn abwechselnd vom Perforierwerkzeug perforiert und vom Schneidwerkzeug geschnitten wobei ein mit dem Werkzeugträger über einen Kurbeltrieb verbundener dritte Antriebsmotor mit konstanter oder annähernd konstanter Drehzahl dreht. Gerade bei grossen Geschwindigkeiten treten durch den kontinuierlich oder annähernd kontinuierlichen Antrieb des Werkzeugträgers kleinere Lagerkräfte und weniger Schwingungen bei einem Stop and go Betrieb auf. Die Massenträgheit des dritten Antriebmotors und des Kurbelgetriebes wirken in den beiden Totpunkten des Werkzeugträgers, welche den Arbeitsstellungen entsprechen, als Schwungrad und helfen mit, den Werkzeugträger nach dem kurzen Stillstand wieder zu beschleunigen.According to a next advantageous embodiment of the method, the continuously transported paper web is alternately perforated by the perforating tool and cut by the cutting tool, wherein a third drive motor connected to the tool carrier via a crank drive rotates at a constant or approximately constant speed. Especially at high speeds occur by the continuous or nearly continuous drive of the tool carrier smaller bearing forces and less vibration in a stop and go operation. The inertia of the third drive motor and the crank gear act in the two dead centers of the tool carrier, which correspond to the working positions, as a flywheel and help to accelerate the tool carrier after the short stoppage again.
Entsprechend einer weiteren Ausführungsform wird der Werkzeugträger in der jeweiligen Arbeitsstellung belassen und der dritte Antriebsmotor angehalten, wenn mehrere aufeinanderfolgende gleiche Bearbeitungen der Papierbahn vorgenommen werden. Der dritte Antriebsmotor beginnt dann wieder zu drehen, wenn nach mehreren aufeinanderfolgenden gleichen Bearbeitungen der Papierbahn der Werkzeugträger von der einen in die andere Arbeitsstellung gebracht wird. Der Werkzeugträger muss also nur dann bewegt werden, wenn die Papierbahn nacheinander mit einem unterschiedlichen Werkzeug bearbeitet werden soll. Wird beispielsweise die Papierbahn bei Druckbogen mit zwei Seiten nur geschnitten und nicht perforiert, steht der dritte Antriebsmotor, das Kurbelgetriebe und der Messerträger mit den Werkzeugen still. Die Bauteile werden geschont und es wird verhindert, dass die Papierbahn oder die davon abgeschnittenen Druckbogen von dem unnötigerweise hin und her schwenkenden Perforier- und Schneidwerkzeug beschädigt oder in ihrem Transport gestört werden.According to a further embodiment, the tool carrier is left in the respective working position and the third drive motor stopped when a plurality of successive same operations of the paper web are made. The third drive motor then starts to rotate again when, after several successive identical operations of the paper web, the tool carrier is moved from one to the other working position. The tool carrier must therefore only be moved if the paper web is to be processed one after the other with a different tool. If, for example, the paper web is only cut and not perforated in printed sheets with two sides, the third drive motor, the crank mechanism and the knife carrier stand still with the tools. The components are protected and it is prevented that the paper web or the sheet cut therefrom by the unnecessarily oscillating perforating and cutting tool are damaged or disturbed in their transport.
Gemäss einer weiteren Ausführungsform des Verfahrens werden ein erster Antriebsmotor für den Transport der Papierbahn, ein zweiter Antriebsmotor einer das Gegenwerkzeug aufnehmenden Schneidtrommel und der dritte Antriebsmotor des Werkzeugträgers von einer Antriebssteuerung angesteuert werden. Bei Formatänderungen der Druckbogen oder beim Auftreten von Störgrössen kann die Antriebssteuerung sofort reagieren und die Antriebe derart ansteuern, dass die für eine hohe Schnittqualität erforderliche präzise Lage der Papierbahn, der Schneid- und Perforierwerkzeuge sowie des mindestens einen Gegenwerkzeugs gewährleistet ist.According to a further embodiment of the method, a first drive motor for transporting the paper web, a second drive motor of a cutting drum receiving the counter tool and the third drive motor of the tool carrier are controlled by a drive control. When format changes of the sheet or the occurrence of disturbances, the drive control can respond immediately and control the drives such that the required for a high quality cut precise position of the paper web, the cutting and perforating tools and the at least one counter tool is guaranteed.
Weiter ist es vorteilhaft, wenn die Signale eines auf die Papierbahn gerichteten Sensors in der Antriebssteuerung ausgewertet werden und die Auswertung der Signale die Ansteuerung der Antriebsmotoren beeinflusst. Mit dem Signal des Sensors, welcher die Ist-Position der Papierbahn und der darauf aufgedruckten Seiten erfasst, kann die Genauigkeit der Perforierung bzw. des Schnitts der Papierbahn an den vorgesehen Stellen erhöht werden. Durch Schlupf oder Dehnung auftretende Abweichungen der Position der Papierbahn in Laufrichtung können mit dieser Ausführungsform stark reduziert werden.Further, it is advantageous if the signals of a sensor directed at the paper web are evaluated in the drive control and the evaluation of the signals influences the activation of the drive motors. With the signal of the sensor, which detects the actual position of the paper web and the pages printed thereon, the accuracy of the perforation or the section of the paper web can be increased at the intended locations. Slippage or elongation occurring deviations of the position of the paper web in the direction can be greatly reduced with this embodiment.
Nach einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausführungsform werden zumindest das Perforierwerkzeug, das Schneidwerkzeug und das Gegenwerkzeug gemeinsam gegenüber der Papierbahn parallel zur Transportebene der Papierbahn um einen Verstellwinkel verschwenkt. Damit kann die Papierbahn auch bei unterschiedlichen Längen von auf der Papierbahn aufgedruckten Seiten und/oder bei Papierbahnen mit unterschiedlichen Breiten rechtwinklig zu ihrer Laufrichtung wahlweise perforiert und geschnitten werden. Durch das Verschwenken im Stillstand aber auch im Lauf der Maschine können Papierbahnen mit unterschiedlichen Breiten und Druckbogen mit unterschiedlichen Formaten mit dem vorteilhaften Schneidprinzip des Scherenschnitts hergestellt werden.According to a further advantageous embodiment, at least the perforating tool, the cutting tool and the counter-tool are pivoted together relative to the paper web parallel to the transport plane of the paper web by an adjustment angle. Thus, the paper web can optionally be perforated and cut even at different lengths of printed on the paper web pages and / or paper webs with different widths perpendicular to their direction. By pivoting at a standstill but also in the course of the machine paper webs can be produced with different widths and sheets with different formats with the advantageous cutting principle of Scherenschnitts.

Auf einer der ersten Seite 3 gegenüberliegenden zweiten Seite 20 der Papierbahn 2 und gegenüber dem Werkzeugträger 12 ist eine rotierende Schneidtrommel 21 angeordnet. Die Schneidtrommel 21 besitzt eine quer oder annährend quer zur Laufrichtung T der Papierbahn und parallel zu einer Transportebene 100 der Papierbahn 2 ausgerichtete Rotationsachse 22.

Es ist vorteilhaft, wenn die Rotationsachse 22 der Schneidtrommel 21 gegenüber der Schwenkachse 31 des Messerträgers und somit auch gegenüber der Orientierung der Schneiden 17, 18 des Perforierwerkzeugs 14 und des Schneidwerkzeugs 16 wie in

Eine Kurbel 44 ist drehfest mit der Motorwelle 43 verbunden. Sie weist eine zur Antriebsachse 43 parallele und um einen Kurbelradius r zu dieser versetzt angeordnete erste Achse 45 auf. Eine den Werkzeugträger 12 und die Kurbel 44 verbindende Schubstange 46 ist an einem Ende auf der ersten Achse 45 drehbar gelagert. Das andere Ende der Schubstange 46 ist mit einer eine zweite Achse 47 aufweisenden Lagerstelle 48 des Werkzeugträgers 12 verbunden. Die zweite Achse 47 steht sowohl zur ersten Achse 45 als auch zur Schwenkachse 31 des Werkzeugträgers 12 parallel. Es ist vorteilhaft, wenn zur Reduktion von unerwünschten Schwingungen an der Kurbel 44 eine nur in
Es ist auch denkbar, dass der dritte Antriebsmotor 40 nur eine einseitig aus dem Motorgehäuse hervorstehende Motorwelle 43 aufweist und nur über ein einziges Kurbelgetriebe 41 mit dem Werkzeugträger 12 verbunden ist. Dabei wäre es vorteilhaft, wenn der dritte Antriebsmotor 40 so im Maschinengehäuse 32 angeordnet ist, dass der einzige Kurbeltrieb 41 etwa in der Mitte der länglichen Ausdehnung des Werkzeugträgers 12 mit diesem Verbunden ist. Weiter ist auch denkbar, dass der dritte Antriebsmotor 40 nicht direkt auf der Antriebsachse 43 angeordnet ist, sondern ein auf der Antriebsachse 43 angeordnetes Antriebsrad über ein Riemen- oder Kettentriebe oder ein Zahnradgetriebe antreibt.
Weiter ist auch denkbar, dass der Werkzeugträger 12 vom dritten Antriebsmotor 40 über ein nicht dargestelltes Kurvengetriebe von einer in die jeweils andere Arbeitsstellung verschwenkt wird. Dabei könnte eine auf der zweiten Achse 47 des Werkzeugträgers 12 drehbar befestigte Kurvenrolle auf einer sich drehenden Kurvenscheibe abrollen, die auf der Antriebsachse 42 des dritten Antriebsmotors 40 drehfest angeordnet ist.It is also conceivable that the

Wie in
Nachfolgend wird das erfindungsgemässe Verfahren zum Schneiden oder Perforieren einer Papierbahn 2 in variablen Abständen beschrieben. Auf die Papierbahn 2 werden wie bereits oben erwähnt ein- oder beidseitig einzelne Seiten S von Druckbogen 8', 8" mit unterschiedlicher Seitenzahl mit einer in den Figuren nicht dargestellten Digitaldruckmaschine aufgedruckt. Danach wird die Papierbahn der erfindungsgemässen Vorrichtung 1 zum wahlweisen Schneiden und Perforieren zugeführt, wobei zwischen der Digitaldruckmaschine und der erfindungsgemässen Vorrichtung 1 weitere Bearbeitungsstationen wie Umlenkungen, Pufferstationen, Einrichtungen zum Perforieren, Schneiden und Falzen in Längsrichtung optional angeordnet sein können. Alternativ dazu kann die bedruckte Papierbahn 2 nach dem Bedrucken wieder auf eine Rolle aufgerollt werden. Die bedruckte Rolle kann anschliessend an einen beliebigen Ort transportiert und/oder eingelagert werden. Bei Bedarf kann die bedruckte Papierrolle über eine im Stand der Technik bekannte, in den Figuren nicht dargestellte Abrollstation und weitere, oben beschriebene optionale Bearbeitungsstationen der erfindungsgemässen Vorrichtung 1 zum Schneiden und Perforieren zugeführt werden.The process according to the invention for cutting or perforating a
Die Papierbahn 2 wird mit einer Fördergeschwindigkeit v in Transportrichtung T der Vorrichtung 1 zugeführt, wobei die Fördergeschwindigkeit v der Transportgeschwindigkeit der Papierbahn in der Digitaldruckmaschine beziehungsweise in der Abrollstation entspricht. Wird die Papierbahn 2 durch eine im Stand der Technik bekannte Pufferstation geführt, in der eine bestimmten Länge der Papierbahn 2 zurückgehalten werden kann, können die Fördergeschwindigkeiten v vor und nach der Pufferstation auch unterschiedlich sein. Die Papierbahn 2 wird von mindestens einer in
Die auf der Papierbahn 2 aufgedruckten Seiten S sind einzelnen Druckbogen 8', 8" zugeordnet, die jeweils eine gleiche oder unterschiedliche Anzahl von Seiten S aufweisen. In

Mit dem erfindungsgemässen Verfahren wird die kontinuierlich geförderte Papierbahn 2 entsprechend den darauf aufgedruckten Druckbogen 8' 8" mit gleicher oder unterschiedlicher Anzahl Seiten S quer zur Transportrichtung T wahlweise entweder geschnitten oder perforiert. Der Antriebsmotor 23 der Schneidtrommel 21 und der den Werkzeugträger 12 bewegende Antriebsmotor 40 sind dazu mit der Antriebssteuerung 61 verbunden. Die Informationen, wo und in welchem Abstand die Papierbahn 2 geschnitten oder perforiert werden muss, wird der Antriebssteuerung 61 beispielsweise von der Digitaldruckmaschine oder einer übergeordneten Maschinensteuerung übermittelt. Alternativ oder ergänzend dazu kann auch eine auf der Papierbahn 2 sichtbar oder unsichtbar aufgebrachtes Identifikationsmerkmal 101 mit dem Sensor 62 gelesen werden. Die Antriebssteuerung 61 wertet das Signal des Sensors 62 aus und bestimmt die genaue Lage, wo die Papierban 2 perforiert oder geschnitten wird.With the method according to the invention, the continuously conveyed
Die Antriebssteuerung 61, welche auch in der übergeordneten Maschinensteuerung integriert sein kann, bestimmt anhand des Durchmessers der Schneidtrommel 21, der Anzahl am Umfang der Schneidtrommel 21 gleichmässig verteilt befestigten Gegenwerkzeuge 25, der Fördergeschwindigkeit v der Papierbahn 2 und der Länge L einer aufgedruckten Seite S die Drehzahl, mit welcher der Antriebsmotor 23 die Schneidtrommel 21 antreibt. Weiter bestimmt die Antriebssteuerung 61 auch den Zeitpunkt bzw. über die Drehzahl und die Winkelposition des zweiten Antriebsmotors 23, wann eines der Gegenwerkzeuge 25 mit seiner Schneide 26 in der Bearbeitungsposition 19 sein muss, damit die Papierbahn an der richtigen Stelle entweder perforiert oder geschnitten wird. Weisen die auf der Papierbahn 2 aufgedruckten Seiten S eine gleiche Länge L auf, dreht sich die Schneidtrommel 21 bei konstanter Geschwindigkeit der Papierbahn 2 gleichmässig oder nahezu gleichmässig.
Wie in
As in
Bei einer konstanten Fördergeschwindigkeit v der Papierbahn 2 und Seiten S mit gleicher Länge L wird die Schneidtrommel 21 mit einer konstanten oder nahezu konstanten Drehzahl angetrieben. Es ist vorteilhaft, wenn die Umfangsgeschwindigkeit der Schneidtrommel 21 auch bei Seiten S mit der grösstmöglichen zu verarbeitenden Länge L gleich oder grösser ist wie die Fördergeschwindigkeit v der Papierbahn 2 . Damit wird sichergestellt, dass die Papierbahn 2 an der Schneidtrommel 21 bzw. an den Gegenwerkzeugen 25 nicht gestaucht wird, weil ein Stauchen der Papierbahn 2 eine präzise Bearbeitung durch perforieren oder schneiden beeinträchtigen oder verunmöglichen würde. Für den Antrieb der Schneidtrommel 21 ist es unerheblich, ob die Papierbahn 2 von der Vorrichtung 1 perforiert oder geschnitten wird beziehungswiese ob jeweils das Perforierwerkzeug 14 oder das Schneidwerkzeug 16 in der Bearbeitungsposition 19 mit dem Gegenwerkzeug 25 der Schneidtrommel im Eingriff steht.At a constant conveying speed v of the
Die Antriebssteuerung 61 steuert auch den dritten Antriebsmotor 40 des Werkzeugträgers 12. Wird ein wie in
Der Schwenkwinkel α wird durch die räumliche Anordnung des Antriebs 40 in Bezug zum Werkzeugträger 12, durch die geometrischen Verhältnisse des Kurbeltriebs, insbesondere von der Grösse des Kurbelradius r und der Länge der Schubstange 46, durch den Abstand der Schwenkachse 31 und der zweiten Drehachse 47, sowie durch die Anordnung der Schwenkachse 31 und der Motorwelle 42 bestimmt. In den beiden Totpunkten des Kurbeltriebs, in denen sich die Antriebsachse 42, die erste Achse 45 und die zweite Achse 47 jeweils in einer gemeinsamen Ebene befinden, steht der Werkzeugträger 12 in jeder der beiden Arbeitsstellungen 30, 33 kurzzeitig still. Das bewirkt erstens, dass das Perforierwerkzeug 14 und das Schneidwerkzeug 16 jeweils stillsteht, während das rotierende Gegenwerkzeug 25 mit einem von beiden in Eingriff gebracht wird. Zweitens ist die Anordnung besonders vorteilhaft, weil dadurch die beim Perforieren oder Schneiden entstehenden Schnittkräfte grösstenteils oder vollständig über den Kurbeltrieb, über in den Figuren nicht dargestellte optionale Lagerstellen der Motorwelle 43 sowie über den Antriebsmotor 40 auf das Maschinengestell 32 übertragen werden. Ein unerwünschtes Drehmoment infolge Schnittkräfte auf den dritten Antriebsmotor 40, welches die Schnittgenauigkeit, die Schnittqualität sowie die Standzeit der Werkzeuge 14, 16, 25 negativ beeinflussen würde, kann so auf einfache Weise verhindert werden. Zudem wird der dritte Antriebsmotor 40 kostengünstiger, da er kleiner dimensioniert werden kann als wenn er dem unerwünschten Drehmoment zum Einhalten seiner genauestens definierten Lage jeweils entgegenwirken müsste. Selbstverständlich kann die Bearbeitung der Papierbahn 2 nicht nur in den oben erwähnten Totpunkten des Kurbeltriebs erfolgen, sondern auch dann, wenn die Antriebsachse 42, die erste Achse 45 und die zweite Achse 47 noch nicht oder nicht mehr in einer gemeinsamen Ebene liegen. Der grösser dimensionierter Antriebsmotor 40 muss in diesem Fall aber ein aus der Bearbeitung resultierendes Drehmoment in Form eines Haltemoments kompensieren.The pivot angle α is determined by the spatial arrangement of the

Mit dem erfindungsgemässen Verfahren und der erfindungsgemässen Vorrichtung 1 können selbstverständlich auch Druckbogen 8', 8", 78', 78" mit Seiten S die jeweils unterschiedliche Längen L aufweisen, bearbeitet werden. Die Antriebssteuerung 61 regelt den Antriebsmotor 23 der Schneidtrommel 21, den Antriebsmotor 40 des Werkzeugträgers 12 sowie die Verstelleinrichtung 90 entsprechend. Die Differenzen der Längen L von Seiten S erfolgt jeweils durch eine Korrektur der Winkelstellung der beiden Antriebsmotoren 23, 40 zwischen zwei Bearbeitungsschritten, so dass jede Perforierung 73 und jeder Schnitt 74 an der dafür vorgesehenen Stelle der Papierbahn 2, 2' vorgenommen wird. Es ist auch denkbar, dass eine Papierbahn 2, 2' mit aufgedruckten Bogen 8, die jeweils mehr als 2 Perforierungen aufweisen verarbeitet werden. Beispielsweise kann auf einer einlagigen Papierbahn 2, 2' ein Druckbogen 8 aufgedruckt sein, der aus acht einzelnen Seiten S besteht. Zwischen den am Anfang und am Ende des Druckbogens notwendigen Schnitten 74 sind bei einem solchen Druckbogen 8 drei Perforierungen 73 notwendig. In zwei stromab der Vorrichtung 1 angeordneten Querfalzeinrichtungen 4, 5 wird der achtseitig Druckbogen 8 jeweils halbiert. Auch Bogen 8 mit mehr als 3 Perforierungen 73 quer zur Laufrichtung T der Papierbahn 2, 2' sind realisierbar, solange sie mit den stromab angeordneten Bearbeitungsstationen verarbeitet werden können.Of course, with the method according to the invention and the
Mit dem erfindungsgemässen Verfahren und der erfindungsgemässen Vorrichtung 1 können auch Papierbahnen 2, 2' mit mehr als zwei Lagen bearbeitet werden, wobei die Lagen beispielsweise über einen Längsfalz miteinander verbunden sind oder lose übereinander gelegt und gemeinsam transportiert werden.With the method according to the invention and the
