Printing method and machine for operating with a flatbed printing form uses a controlled scaling device with two water-filled circuits to adjust the water temperature of a water-based printing ink in an inker unit.

摘要

Temperature of a water-based printing ink in an inker unit is adjusted to a specific temperature by using a controlled scaling device (21) made up of two circuits (21.1,21,2) filled with water as a temperature scaling substance. These circuits are thermally interlinked via a first heat exchanger (22), each with tubing and piping through which the temperature scaling substance is pumped by separate pumps (23,24).
