Abstract

Es ist eine Vorrichtung und ein Verfahren vorgesehen, womit störungsfreie Geschwindigkeits- und Positionsbezugssignale für die Antriebseinheiten (440-446) einer Rollenrotationsdruckmaschine (10) erzeugt werden, um die Druckgeschwindigkeit und die Druckqualität beeinträchtigende Effekte, die durch mechanische Übergangsstörungen während des Druckprozesses an einer oder mehreren Antriebseinheiten verursacht werden, zu minimieren oder auszuschließen.

Figure 00000001
An apparatus and a method are provided, by means of which interference-free speed and position reference signals are generated for the drive units (440-446) of a web-fed rotary printing press (10), in order to reduce the effects on printing speed and print quality caused by mechanical transition disturbances during the printing process on one or multiple drive units are caused to minimize or exclude.
