Definitions

  • the invention relates to an error analysis and marking system which analyzes erroneous use of a signature during the sheet pass through a printing press, preferably a sheet-fed rotary printing press, and marks it as defective during the passage through the printing press.
  • the evaluation of the print quality is carried out by drawing a test sheet, which is then placed on a tuning desk and recorded and evaluated visually and / or metrologically.
  • a quality assessment is only a sample, so that a slow change in quality may not be noticed until after a significant period of time, resulting in a corresponding amount of waste.
  • sample sheet random quality defects for example, caused by slugs or scratches, difficult to grasp. Accordingly, it can not be prevented that a corresponding amount of unnoticed waste landed in the display, which then has to be sorted out before further processing by appropriate steps.
  • Permanent quality monitoring is possible with printing machines if, in particular after the last printing unit, an image recording device in the form of a camera together with image processing is arranged.
  • image inspection systems are for example from EP 1 190 855 A1 and the EP 0 884 182 B1 known.
  • the image data obtained by the image recording device are compared pixel-by-pixel with predetermined target values, whereupon, in the event of deviations from nominal values, either warnings are output or the printing process is intervened in a corrective manner.
  • the DE 200 10 920 U1 and the EP 1 167 036 A1 disclose a printing machine in which a quality determination of a printed image during the sheet pass through a printing machine by the print image or the sheet is detected by a camera and the recorded image of the printed image is evaluated by an image processing orientation by the recorded image is compared with a reference image ,
  • the substrate is printed with a variety of sub-images or benefits and the evaluation evaluates only a subset of these images.
  • the evaluation device outputs a counting signal that indicates the evaluated subset.
  • the DE 44 32 371 A1 discloses a method for identifying a single faulty benefit on a print sheet that has been multi-printed by a camera capturing an image of the print material and processing the data in an image processing system, the image processing system including the pre-defined or acquired benefit recorded Reference benefit compares. It checks whether the color location of the individual benefit matches a reference location. The measuring location was defined in advance. For error identification of a single benefit, the benefit number and the location coordinates of the single benefit are determined.
  • the DE 203 03 574 U1 discloses an image processing system for a printing press, wherein a printed sheet, which has been printed with multiple benefits, detected by a camera and the acquired image data are detected in an image processing device, wherein the image processing means are arranged according to the fault location controllable printing devices, through which at predefined locations of the substrate markings occur when the individual benefit carries a mistake. Based on this printed error feature, In the simplest case, a simple spray point, the erroneous benefit in a further processing device, after the entire sheet was separated by a suitable device in single use, can be detected and removed by a sensor.
  • the DE 10 2004 014 549 B3 discloses a method of identifying a single benefit with a print image of defective quality by having an inspection system with a camera capture an image from the sheet and process that data in an image processing system, the image processing system capturing the data of the captured image with a position, shape or data set Size on the sheet compares, with the record coming from a die for separating the benefits on the sheet.
  • a disadvantage of the in the DE 10 2004 014 549 B3 The solution disclosed is that the assignment of the errors to a benefit on the sheet is done in the image processing system.
  • the sheet can be picked up during the sheet pass only line by line or in sections during the sheet pass and the partial images are fed to the image processing device.
  • These recorded data are compared with the stored reference image, which originates from a recorded sheet or a reference image from the preliminary stage.
  • the image data of deviation from the reference are checked by complex algorithms.
  • the computing capacity of the image processing computer used is at the limit of what is technically possible, so that, starting from a certain amount of errors, the image processing algorithm is aborted and it defines entire arcs as errors.
  • An increase in computing capacity would only be possible by significantly increasing the computing capacity, for example by using one or more multiprocessor computers.
  • assigning the error data to a benefit for example, by the fault location of a benefit contour in the image processing device, which comes from punching die data, is assigned, the image processing computer is additionally charged. If the computing power is not significantly expanded, this additional computation and allocation overhead would reduce the amount of detectable errors.
  • the object of the present invention is to expand a printing quality device for a printing press in such a way that the information obtained by the printing quality device can be utilized in a simple manner even after printing, without the image processing device being burdened by additional computing algorithms.
  • the image recording of the sheet is triggered line by line triggered by a rotary encoder during the print run by a printing press.
  • the coordinates of each individual pixel on the printed sheet are known, the X-coordinate over the sheet width by the position of the pixel in the recorded line, while the Y-coordinate is defined in the sheet transport direction by the count pulse of the rotary encoder.
  • the location of each pixel is known as the X-Y coordinate. Any error detected in the image processing system can be assigned an XY coordinate without much computational effort.
  • the driving device can drive a plurality of marking devices.
  • Conceivable as a marking device would be inkjet printers, laser marking devices or also mechanical marking devices, which act on the signature at predefined or case-selected locations.
  • the marking on the printed sheet can be based on the sheet forward and / or sheet back related.
  • the marking devices can be present several times, wherein an own marking device is ideally assigned to each use over the sheet width. Especially with entangled benefit arrangements, as shown in Fig. 1, this can mean a high driving effort when each benefit is to be marked at a predefined location.
  • the benefits should be distributed on the sheet so that a marking device can mark all the consecutive benefits of a column.
  • This use makes sense if the marking does not have to be applied at a defined point of use.
  • a typical marker location of a carton when an error occurs within the contour of the carton is the tab of the carton, since typically the tab code as shown in Figure 2 is printed, which is evaluated within the finishing line.
  • This sensor system for evaluating the adhesive flap code can also be used to evaluate a printed error code.
  • the contour of the folding box must be known to the control computer.
  • marking directions e.g. motor driven to the marking location.
  • the laser beam can be deflected by mirrors or scanners in the X and Y directions so that any erroneous benefits can be marked.
  • control computer the contour data of the benefits on the sheet is known, since based on the contour data of the marking can be selected and optionally the marking device can be positioned or controlled. Moreover, it makes sense technically and economically to carry out the error assignment for a benefit in a control computer downstream of the image processing system, since otherwise the image processing system burdened by the amount of data and the complex calculation algorithm would soon reach its limits.
  • a picture is taken in a printing machine with a line camera or another type of camera and this image is then transmitted to an image processing computer (1), which examines the recorded image for defect images. If an error is found, coordinates are assigned to this error, for example the X-coordinate over the sheet width is defined by the position of the pixel in the recorded line and the Y-coordinate in the sheet transport direction by the count pulse of the rotary encoder.
  • the obtained XY coordinates are transmitted to the control computer (2) whose task is the control of the labeling and / or marking device (7).
  • the control computer (2) of the labeling and / or marking device (7) while the contour data (3) are provided which describe the location of the individual benefits on the sheet.
  • This contour data (3) can be transmitted from the precursor, for example in JDF or CIP format or as CAD data or by reading in a printed sheet having punched contours, by the camera located in the printing press to the control computer (2).
  • This data can then be used for positioning the marking heads and for assigning a fault location, which was transmitted as an XY coordinate from the image processing computer (1) to the control computer (2), to the individual use on the printed sheet.
  • the user assignment takes place here in a computer system, which is arranged downstream of the image processing system. From the image processing computer only XY coordinates are passed to this downstream computer to the actual Image analysis in the image processing computer does not charge additionally.
  • the control computer (2) uses the XY coordinates of the error supplied by the image processing computer (1) in conjunction with the contour data (3) to determine whether the individual benefit has an error or not (decision 4).
  • an individual code is applied to the benefit, which originates from a database with labeling data (5).
  • the demand for individualized packaging arises from the requirement of traceability of products, which is repeatedly raised. Gray market imports or product counterfeits can be proven with such a coding, the tracking of the delivery and process chain eg of pharmaceutical packaging is thus possible.
  • the possibility to print the benefit in case of default with a static or randomly obtained information is not excluded.
  • an error code (6) is printed on the utility.
  • the error code can be the absence of the numbering or marking for the good case, a simple marking or a special coding for the case of an error.
  • the procedure according to the second embodiment of the invention has the further advantage that the labeling and / or marking device is also active in Gutfall.
  • the marking device can not be used for several hours.
  • the use of slow-drying inks or other marking agents is not an option, otherwise there would be a risk of smearing or depositing during sheet transport and when laying the signature on the delivery pile. Every good benefit is also marked or coded provided, the marking device is active most of the time or always during the printing operation, so that the risk of drying is avoided.
  • a third embodiment is that each benefit is provided with the labeling or marking device (7) in the printing machine with an individual code, wherein in the control computer (2) of this labeling code is provided with a feature good or erroneous benefits.
  • the label code applied to the benefit is then forwarded together with the error feature to a database, a data store or directly via a data line to an external system.
  • the individual benefits come to a further processing device, which is provided with a suitable sensor for reading the applied code.
  • the code is read and compared with the previously stored data records in the database or in the data memory and evaluated with regard to the error feature.
  • Codes within the meaning of the invention may be alphanumeric characters, one- and two-dimensional barcodes or other suitable markings which allow individual recognition of the individual benefit.
  • An extension of the first, second and third embodiment represents the possibility of the control computer (2) the number of good or the number of good and the number of erroneous benefits to the machine control center of the printing press or to an external database or system, for Example, an operating data acquisition system to deliver.
  • the logging of good vouchers in the sense of "Geticianbogen" is known and state of the art. With this solution, a logging of good benefits would take place, ie at the level that will later be sold to the end customer.
