  • Patent number: 11914293
    Abstract: The invention relates to a radiation-curable mixture for generating relief structures, comprising a) at least one functionalized, part-hydrolyzed polyvinyl acetate comprising (i) vinyl alcohol units, (ii) vinyl acetate units, and (iii) vinyl acrylate units, where the vinyl acrylate units, which can be substituted, have the general structure where R is hydrogen or a linear or branched aliphatic or heteroaliphatic radical having 1 to 12 carbon atoms, or a cycloaliphatic, heterocyclic or aromatic radical having 3 to 12 carbon atoms, as component A, b) at least one initiator as component B, c) at least one ethylenically unsaturated compound different from component A, as component C, d) one or more adjuvants as component D, wherein the amount of vinyl acrylate units (iii) in the functionalized, part-hydrolyzed polyvinyl acetate a), based on all the units (i), (ii), and (iii), is 0.1 to <3 mol %, and component D comprises an additive capable of hydrogen bonding, in an amount of 0.

  • Patent number: 11485131
    Abstract: A machine arrangement sequentially processes sheet-like substrates with multiple different processing stations each having a substrate-guiding unit and a substrate-processing unit. At least one of the processing stations has, as a substrate-processing unit, at least one non-impact printing device which prints on the substrate. The processing station with the at least one non-impact printing device has a printing cylinder. Each non-impact printing device is arranged at the circumference of the printing cylinder. The printing cylinder is triple-sized or quadruple-sized. A double-sized or a triple-sized transfer drum, or a corresponding feed cylinder, is arranged directly upstream of this printing cylinder. Alternatively, a double-sized or a triple-sized transfer drum, or a corresponding transfer cylinder, is arranged directly downstream of this printing cylinder.

  • Patent number: 11318732
    Abstract: A machine arrangement, for sequentially processing sheet-type substrates, includes a plurality of different processing stations, one of which includes a non-impact printing device that prints the substrates. The processing station, including the non-impact printing device, also includes a printing cylinder, on the circumference of which, the non-impact printing device that prints the substrates is arranged. On the circumferential surface of the printing cylinder, four substrates are or can be placed behind each other in the circumferential direction. Each of the substrates that are to be conveyed are retained in one of a force-locking and a form-fitting manner on the circumferential surface of the printing cylinder by at least one retaining element.
