Definitions

  • the invention relates to a cross-cutter device for Making cutouts from endless in the transport direction successive printing formats of a printed flat material web.
  • a known cross-cutter device In a known cross-cutter device are two knives mounted on a rotating cylinder with a fixed knife in a rotary paper cut work together.
  • the two knives have a circumference fixed distance from each other. This fixed distance determines the Web length of the cutout to be produced from the flat material web.
  • the Knife spacing on the cylinder To change the cut length, the Knife spacing on the cylinder to be changed, or it must a new set of blades are installed.
  • a cross-cutter device is rotatable with two drivable cross cutter cylinders known. On each of these Both cross cutter cylinders are attached to a knife with a fixed knife again in the rotary shear cut cooperates.
  • the two cross cutter cylinders are arranged above the flat material web.
  • the cross cutter cylinders be shared by a single engine driven.
  • the size of each of the two cross cutter cylinders determines the mutual minimum distance of these two cross cutter cylinders. This minimum distance has to follow that out with these two cross cutter cylinders a flat material to be cut out a cutouts certain minimum length can not fall below. From that Apart from a change in the mutual Rotative position of the two knives on the two Cross cutter cylinders the cut length accordingly change. The for such a cut length change required changeover time is required by the manual Effort considerably. In addition, set the required manual Setting activities not inconsiderable technical and manual Skills of the respective operator.
  • a first embodiment of a cross-cutter device that includes each of both rotatable driven knives a separate, the respective rotation of each knife causing motor Drive is assigned, and that further for each motor Drive own control is present in the rotational target positions can be stored. That's it that possible in a labor-intensive work process once by a setter for a particular section Found setting of the rotatably driven, in all Usually on appropriately rotatably driven cylinders fixed knives, at any time just again can be accessed and set automatically. The Reproducibility of such once defined format settings This makes it easy even for untrained Staff possible.
  • the second embodiment of the inventive cross-cutter device that includes one of two cutting units with one rotatably driven Knife on one side and the other of the two Cutting units on the opposite side the flat material web is arranged in each case.
  • These in relation on the flat material web mutual arrangement of the two Cutting units also allows format cuts at very small format length, since the minimum format length is no longer by the relatively large mutual distance of on one Flat material web arranged two cross cutter cylinders is determined. It can then also for each of the two Cutting units are provided a separate motor and beyond that, each of these two motor drives in turn be assigned to a controller, in turn desired rotational target positions are stored can.
  • This additional training then has the additional Advantage that any - even small - format sections can be adjusted reproducibly in a simple manner.
  • a cross cutter device 10 has two cutting units 12, 14, of which a cutting unit 12 above and the other cutting unit 14 below a dash-dotted indicated flat material web 16 is positioned.
  • the Flat material web 16 is in the present example a printed paper web, which in transport direction 18 by usual, in Fig. 1, not shown conveyor belts or roller conveyor is passed through the cross cutter device 10 therethrough.
  • the upper cutting unit has a cross cutter cylinder 20 with a knife 22 mounted thereon.
  • This knife 22 cuts the web 16 in cooperation with a below the web 16 arranged fixed knife 24 in one so-called rotary cut.
  • the knife 24 is in one stationary knife holder 25 attached.
  • the cross cutter cylinder 20 has its own motor Drive 26.
  • Control for the motor 26 can be any rotational positions of the cross cutter cylinder 20 store. Thereby can corresponding rotational positions of the cross cutter cylinder 20 easily retrieved and set up again become.
  • the lower cutting unit 14 is like the upper cutting unit 12 formed. Also on its cylinder 30 is a knife 32nd fastened, with one above the flat material web 16 arranged, mounted in a knife holder 35 fixed blade 34 for generating a rotary cut interacts.
  • the cross cutter cylinder 30 is replaced by a driven by separate motor drive 36. This motor Drive 36 has a control in the desired positions of the Cross cutter cylinder 30 can be stored.
  • the two cutting units 12, 14 act on the flat material web 16 for cutting out cutouts 40, for example in a manner as exemplified in Figs is shown. From the flat web 16 (Fig. 2) are intended identical cutouts 40, 40.2, 40.3, 40.4 cut out become. All of these cutouts are 42 in length and are shorter than the corresponding on the track 16 already Gross printed formats of length 44. The gross formats can while releasing a distance, they hang together endlessly but can also seamless as in the present case abut.
  • the two cylinders 20, 30 are driven synchronously.
  • the Motors 26, 36 servo motors, each with its own register control exhibit.
  • the respective rotational position of the two Cylinder based on the individual sections to be produced 40 is stored in this register control. Thereby can cut-out data stored and therefore easy again be called when the two cross cutter cylinders 20, 30th new again according to the respective desired cutouts have to be adjusted.
  • the flat material web 16 lies in the area between the two fixed knives 24, 34 on one in the present For example, around three guide rollers endlessly circulating Transport belt 60 on.
  • This conveyor belt 60 is replaced by a not shown drive motor in the area between his two upper guide rollers 61, 63 in the transport direction 18, and in the same way as the flat material web 16, driven.
  • the cross-cutter device 10th After passing through the cross-cutter device 10th through transported flat material web through the lower Cutting unit 14 already in the transverse direction, for example, longitudinally the rear line 52 is severed, is achieved by that between this line 52 and the one behind it Line 50.3 existing track section 70 through the behind this Bahn section existing areas of the flat web in Direction to the first cutting unit 12 is pushed.
  • this web section 70 in Transport direction 18 are actively moved. This actively moving is for all railway areas in the area between the two Cutting units 14 and 12 possible.
  • the knife 22 by means of pressure screws 84 in the direction of the fixed lower knife 24 pressed.
  • the leaves Cutting edge 88 of the blade 22 by further pressure screws 86th in parallel to the axis of action of the fastening screws 82 Move direction away from the cylinder 20. This allows the Cutting edge 88 of the blade 22 exactly to the cutting edge 89 of lower knife 24 are aligned and in this Alignment also be kept.
  • Fixing screws 92 are present, the knife 24 at the Hold knife holder 25.
  • the Cutting unit 14 is identical to the cutting unit 12 educated, except for the difference that on her Cross cutter cylinder 30 no areas of the flat material web 16 must be sucked and blown away. The cross cutter cylinder 30 therefore has no perforated surface 72.
  • the cutting unit 12 - the same applies to the Cutting unit 14 - can in a plane parallel to Flat material web 16 is present, be pivoted.
  • the Rotation axis 80 remains in her to the flat material web 16 parallel alignment.
  • the two could Cutting units 12, 14 interchanged in the transport direction 18 to be ordered.
  • the right Cylinder 30 above the flat material web 16 and the left Cylinder 20 may be present below the flat material web 16.
