  • Device for in situ repairing of a cylinder in a printing machine
    Patent number: 5644828
    Abstract: A device for repairing a cylinder in a printing machine while the cylinder is installed in the printing machine. The device includes a cross slide rail having a base body with longitudinal guides, a longitudinal support slidably mounted on the longitudinal guides, and a transverse support connected to the longitudinal support. The cross slide rail is removably mounted to side walls of the printing machine so as to be parallel to a longitudinal axis of the cylinder to be repaired. A pull spindle is rotatably mounted to the base body and operatively connected to the longitudinal support so that the rotation of the pull spindle moves the longitudinal support along the longitudinal guides of the base body. A tool holder is connected to the transverse support for carrying a tool for working the cylinder. A mechanism for driving the cylinder is also provided.
