摘要

An automatic cleaning apparatus for a gravure plate cylinder comprises a carriage having a spatula capable of contacting the outer cylindrical surface of a gravure plate cylinder and a solvent sprinkling pipe for sprinkling a cleaning solvent on the outer cylindrical surface of the gravure plate cylinder which is rotated about its axis during the cleaning operation. The carriage is moved in a direction parallel to the gravure plate cylinder by rotating a screw bar, and the spatula of the carriage is pressed against the gravure plate cylinder by a pressure shaft connected to an actuator.
