Method for fitting a plate-shaped type form to a tubular cylinder sleeve involves heating up the type form to change its length before fixing the second edge of same

摘要

The method involves heating up the plate-shaped type form (12) to elastically change its length before fixing the second edge (16) of the form is fixed. The tubular sleeve (10) is rotated whilst the type form is pressed onto the outer sleeve face of the tubular sleeve by means of a contact pressure element. Independent claim describes method for removing type form from tubular sleeve by drawing one of the first or second edges radially away from the axis of symmetry of the sleeve. Independent claim describes device with heating element to supply hot air or infra red radiation to heat up type form.
