Abstract: A method sets the inking in a printing press with multiple ink zones in an inking unit of a printing unit. The method includes: printing a test form onto a printing substrate with an intentional pre-defined color deviation from the intended target color; correcting the previously set ink setting and the defined set color deviation with regard to the respective target value in the wet condition of the printing substrate by a color measuring device; and taking color measurements of the dried printing substrate using the color measuring device. The measured color values established in the dry state and the original of the test form in a computer are compared. The ink setting that belongs to the ink zone with the smallest deviation from the intended target color is used as the target ink setting for the printing process.

Abstract: A method for correcting digitized image data in the prepress stage when using printing presses having a device-independent color profile in the main printing stage, having the following method steps: colorimetric measurement of a reference sheet and production of an image file in a device-independent color space, conversion of an image file belonging to the reference sheet in a device-dependent color space into a further image file in a device-independent color space using the device-independent color profile belonging to the printing press to be used, comparison of the two device-independent image files. performing alterations on the device-dependent image file associated with the reference sheet or alteration of the printing process in the selected printing press if tolerance limits are exceeded.

Abstract: A circuit configuration is provided for monitoring an electromagnetically actuated device, such as an electromagnetic clutch. The circuit comprises a switchable power source connected to the winding of the electromagnet; the power source supplies a composite voltage formed of a direct voltage part and a periodic alternating voltage part superimposed on one another. Engage and disengage signals are issued for the clutch and the direct voltage part assumes distinctly different levels in dependence on the engage and disengage signals. A precision resistor is connected in series with the winding of the electromagnet and a voltage sensor is connected at a node between the winding and the precision resistor. An evaluation circuit is connected to the voltage sensor for evaluating the alternating voltage part acting on the precision resistor and receiving therefrom information regarding the functionality of the electromagnetic device.
