Publication number: 20090288915Abstract: A method of operating a printing press, wherein lubricated components of the printing press are lubricated with lubricant during the operation of the printing press in such a way that lubricant is taken from a reservoir via a feed line and is supplied to the component or components to be lubricated and in that the lubricant is carried away from the respective component to be lubricated in a post-feed area. Metal particles in the lubricant in the area downstream of the respective component to be lubricated are detected by means of a sensor. The state of the respective component to be lubricated is determined on the basis of this measurement and, if need be, a repair or exchange of the respective component to be lubricated is initiated.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 20, 2009Publication date: November 26, 2009Applicant: manroland AGInventors: Stefan ALBRECHT, Nils-Hendric Schall, Markus Weng
