  • Printing Press with Printing Plate Manipulation Device
    Publication number: 20080148974
    Abstract: A printing press includes at least one printing unit having a cylinder and a cover covering the cylinder. Actuators are associated with the cylinder for changing a geometry of the cover in axial and/or circumferential direction of the cylinder. Positioning electronics are connected to the actuators and a printing press machine control system is connected to the positioning electronics. An image inspection device is connected to the printing press machine control system at least for geometric measurement of printed printing materials. A printing press computer processes measured results from the image inspection device for carrying out a desired/actual value comparison and for driving the actuators to minimize determined deviations, in the event that deviations are determined.
