Verfahren zur Signalverarbeitung

摘要

The invention relates to a method for processing signals in an electronic graving machine for engraving printing forms, in particular printing cylinders used for rotogravure. A graving control signal (G) is obtained by superimposing engraving data (GD), representing tone values between "white" and "black" which are to be engraved, with a periodic screen signal for generating a gravure screen. The graving control signal (G) guides the lifting movement of the burin (5) of a graving element (4). As a result of the lifting movement of the burin (5), a series of cups arranged in the gravure screen is engraved on the printing form (1). To compensate an incorrect lifting movement of the burin (rebound effect, lag effect), the engraving data (GD) undergo digital filtering before superposition of the gravure screen.
