Publication number: 20100018416Abstract: A printing-press driving apparatus and method capable of printing that employs a processless plate in order to suppress an increase in waste paper by properly performing a water process on the processless plate. In a water process in the case of employing the processless plate, control is performed so that while a plate cylinder with the processless plate placed thereon is being rotated without actual contact with continuous paper, the water process is performed only for a predetermined period of time, and continuous paper travels at a lower speed than a peripheral speed of the plate cylinder.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 21, 2007Publication date: January 28, 2010Applicant: MITSUBISHI HEAVY INDUSTRIES, LTD.Inventor: Shinichiro Senoo

Publication number: 20090199730Abstract: An apparatus and method for driving a printing press, which are capable of easily and properly performing a water process on a processless plate so that the labor of an operator can be lessened, and also capable of printing that employs the processless plate in order to suppress an increase in the make ready time of the printing press itself and an increase in waste paper due to the water process. The apparatus includes plate determining means for determining whether a printing plate placed on a plate cylinder (31b to 34b) of a printing unit by plate exchange is the processless plate. The apparatus further includes control means 9 which, if the printing plate is determined to be the processless plate by the plate determining means, performs control so that the plate cylinder (31b to 34b) is rotated at a preset speed without actual contact with printing paper and also the water process is performed only for a preset period of time.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 21, 2007Publication date: August 13, 2009Applicant: Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd.Inventor: Shinichiro Senoo

Publication number: 20090193989Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a web offset press that is capable of reducing costs and reliably preventing wrinkles that occur in a web during low-speed operation. A web offset press includes a printing section that prints on a web that is transported; an in-feed drag that is provided upstream of the printing section and that adjusts a tension of the web and transports it downstream; a cooling drag that is provided downstream of the printing section and that transports the web at a transport speed higher than that of the in-feed drag; and a tension control unit that controls a tension of the web. The tension control unit has a tension-release operating mode (TM) where a transport-speed difference between the cooling drag and the in-feed drag is smaller than a transport-speed difference between the cooling drag and the in-feed drag during printing.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 17, 2007Publication date: August 6, 2009Applicant: MITSUBISHI HEAVY INDUSTRIES, LTD.Inventor: Shinichiro Senoo
