Patent number: 7464740Abstract: An overcoat application apparatus is used to transfer an overcoat material from a donor support to a printed media. The overcoat application apparatus in this case includes a laminate cartridge, a donor supply reel, a donor guide bar, a heated fuser roller, a pressure roller, a peel bar, and a take-up reel. The donor supply reel provides a continuous source of donor plus overcoat material. The donor guide bar guides printed media and the donor plus overcoat into a nip created by forcing the heated fuser roller and pressure roller together. The heated fuser roller is used to transport the printed media and donor through the nip and apply heat to the donor and printed media. The pressure roller is used to apply pressure to the fuser roller in order to produce the mechanical nip. The nip plus the heat causes the overcoat material on the donor to be transferred to the printed media.Type: GrantFiled: September 9, 2004Date of Patent: December 16, 2008Assignee: Eastman Kodak CompanyInventors: Kerry Neal McKay, Robert John Rosati, Scott Matthew Dennis

Patent number: 7224490Abstract: A method of producing a printing plate on a cylindrical printing-plate carrier includes subdividing the printing-plate carrier by computation in terms of its width and axial length into at least two circumferential subareas. Then an actual transfer characteristic curve for each subarea is determined and compared by computation with a predetermined desired printing characteristic curve for each subarea to find a deviation. The method further includes calculating a correction to compensate for each deviation; receiving a digital image data in a first data format using a raster image processor; converting the digital image data into machine-specific image data including the position and the tonal value in the form of a bitmap; applying the correction for a predetermined desired printing characteristic curve for the edition print to the machine-specific image data using the raster image processor; and supplying the corrected machine-specific image data to an imagesetting unit.Type: GrantFiled: March 27, 2003Date of Patent: May 29, 2007Assignee: MAN Roland Druckmaschinen AGInventors: Josef Schneider, Armin Weichmann

Patent number: 5715754Abstract: An offset printing method is suitable for high-precision printing. Errors caused by the relative movement between a blanket cylinder 4 and a form plate 10 and the rotation of the blanket cylinder 4 on its axis which are produced in a step of transferring an ink image to the blanket cylinder 4 from the form plate 10, are reproduced in the relative movement between the blanket cylinder 4 and a surface to be printed on 11 and the rotation of the blanket cylinder 4 on its axis in a step for printing the ink image on the surface to be printed on 11 from the blanket cylinder 4. The dimensional errors produced in the ink image transferred to the surface 12 of the blanket cylinder 14 of the offset printing methods are cancelled when transferring the ink image from the surface of the blanket cylinder 4 to the surface to be printed on.Type: GrantFiled: July 19, 1996Date of Patent: February 10, 1998Assignee: Sumitomo Rubber Industries Ltd.Inventors: Jun Nishibayashi, Jun Ochi, Hiroaki Kawasaki

Patent number: 4219595Abstract: An adhesive printing blanket including rubber or rubber-like material. The printing blanket may also be provided with reinforcing inserts. A foil-like protective layer covers the adhesive layer of the printing blanket. The protective layer, which is elastically flexible, is removed by pulling off prior to the adhesive mounting of the printing blanket.
