Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a printing press overprinting technology, in particular to a compensation sequence overprinting method based on the deformation amount of a printing material. Background Art

[0002] When a multi-color web-fed gravure printing machine is overprinting colors, the usual practice is to set a printing overprint color mark in the vacant area outside one side of the printed image, set a color mark detection probe behind the color separation printing plates of the second color to the last color of the printing machine, set an encoder on the color separation printing plate drive motor, read the number of pulses detected by each color mark probe when the original color overprint color mark and the previous color overprint color mark arrive and leave, calculate the difference between the two pulses at the corresponding position, and obtain the overprint difference between the color where the probe is located and the previous color, and convert the overprint deviation value into an adjustment value to perform registration compensation on the color separation printing plate drive motor. Thereby reducing the overprint deviation and improving the overprint quality. However, the existing technology lacks consideration of the deformation of the printing material, and there is no detection and measurement method for the deformation of the printing material, and there is no calculation method for the overwriting adjustment amount of the superimposed deformation amount. Therefore, for printing materials with large deformation, the current multi-color overprinting method is not applicable. Summary of the invention

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a compensating sequential overprinting method based on the deformation amount of a printing material, so as to solve the problem of multi-color overprinting with deformation of the printing material.

[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the technical solution of the present invention is: a compensating sequential overprinting method based on the deformation amount of the printing material, the compensating sequential overprinting method for a roll substrate printing machine with multiple color groups comprises the following steps:

[0005] 1) Set the overprint color mark and color mark detection probe of the color separation printing plate:

[0006] Set overprint color marks on the left and right sides of the images and texts of the 1st to Mth color separation printing plates to be overprinted, respectively; the center lines of the overprint color marks on the left and right sides of each color separation printing plate are symmetrical to the longitudinal center line of the printing plate; the longitudinal distances of the overprint color marks of different color separation printing plates are the same and equal to the set overprint color mark distance of the printing plate; set a group of two color mark detection probes behind each color separation printing plate to detect the overprint color marks on the left and right sides of the printing material respectively; set an encoder with a linkage output with the color mark detection probe on the driving motor of each color separation printing plate;

[0007] 2) Detect and calculate the position and mutual distance of the overprinted color marks on both sides of the printing material:

[0008] In the multi-color overprint process, the color mark detection probe is used to detect that the 1st to Mth color separation printing plates are printed on both sides of the printing material respectively, and the repeated overprint color marks including the 1st to Mth colors on the left and right sides are printed one by one.

[0011] 2.3) Detect the longitudinal distance between the overprint color marks of the color separation printing plates where the color mark detection probes of each group of color marks on the printing material are located within two adjacent plate diameter printing widths, and mark them as the plate length detection length on the left and right sides of the color;

[0012] 3) Calculate the vertical and horizontal overprint deviation between color groups:

[0013] 3.1) Subtract the longitudinal detection distance between the left and right overprint color marks of the 2nd to Mth color sequential overprint from the plate overprint color mark distance, and the difference is the longitudinal overprint deviation of the left and right sides of the color group relative to the previous color group, and it is marked as the longitudinal overprint deviation of the left and right sides of the sequential overprint of the color;

This value is the equivalent longitudinal deformation of the left and right color scale lengths of the color to the next color, and is marked as the equivalent longitudinal deformation of the left and right color scale lengths of the sequential overprinting of the color;

[0017] 4.2) Subtract the lateral overprint deviations of the left and right color codes of a certain color from each other to obtain the lateral deformation of the left and right overprint color code spacing between the current color group and the previous color group of the printing material, and mark it as the lateral deformation of the left and right color code spacing of the color sequential overprinting.

[0018] 5) Calculate the vertical and horizontal overprint adjustment of the color group:

[0019] 5.1) Subtract the average value of the longitudinal deformation of the left and right color scale lengths of the previous color from the average value of the longitudinal deviation of the left and right color scales of the sequential overprint of a certain color from the average value of the longitudinal deviation of the left and right color scales of the sequential overprint of the previous color. The result is the longitudinal adjustment value of the sequential overprint of the color.

[0020] 5.2) Subtract half of the lateral deformation of the left and right color mark spacing from the lateral overprint deviation on the left side of the sequential overprint of a certain color, and the result is the lateral adjustment value of the sequential overprint of the color;
