Abstract: Method for loading and exchanging the rollers of the printing units of a printing machine and a device for working the method, the device loading station including a handling carriage for engraved rollers, a storage station for rollers, a reserve station at each of the printing units, a robot for transporting the engraved rollers, either from the loading station or from the storage station to a ready position located in the reserve station. The robot takes an engraved roller either from a reserve position or from the storage station or from the loading station and brings the roller into a working position. The robot is also able to withdraw an engraved roller from its working position in order to bring it either into a reserve position, or into the storage station or into the loading station.

Abstract: The device for mounting and removing blanket strips of a rotary cutting anvil cylinder comprises means for tightening and loosening the ends of at least one blanket strip so as to allow permutation with the other blanket strips of the rotary cutting anvil cylinder. The means for tightening and loosening the ends of a blanket strip include a locking and unlocking element placed in a groove in the periphery of the cylinder body of the rotarycutting anvil cylinder, the groove extending over the entire axial width of the cylinder body. The locking and unlocking element comprises a removable slide moving in the groove. the repective slide includes angled guiding grooves and also grooves all in the shape of linear cams into which fit rollers fixedly attached to at least one jaw which is moveable so as to act on at least one end of the blanket strips. The moveable slide is actuated by atraction device which comprises an adjusting screw fitting into a nut attached to the moveable slide.

Abstract: The device for mounting and removing blanket strips of a rotary cutting anvil cylinder comprises means for tightening and loosening the ends of at least one blanket strip so as to allow permutation with the other blanket strips of the rotary cutting anvil cylinder. The means for tightening and loosening the ends of a blanket strip consist of a locking and unlocking element placed in a groove (5) arranged in the periphery of the cylinder body (2) of the rotary cutting anvil cylinder, the said groove (5) extending over the entire width of the cylinder body (2). The locking and unlocking element comprises a removable slide (9) moving in the groove (5), the said removable slide (9) including guiding grooves (10) and grooves (11, 11a) in the shape of linear cams into which fit rollers fixedly attached to at least one jaw which is removable so as to act on at least one end of the blanket strips.
