Sheet-fed rotary printing presses for multi-color printing

摘要

To make more compact the structure of a sheet-fed rotary printing press and to simplify the installation of the individual printing units, there is provided a separate frame for each printing unit in which the plate cylinder and blanket cylinder are mounted together with the inking and wetting unit. The impression cylinder and the transfer drum are mounted as a transport unit in a fixed base frame. The frames of the printing unit are mounted on the base frame of the transport unit in the longitudinal direction of the press, so that it is possible to create an open space between any two printing units as required by the operator.
