Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for controlling a paper-processing machine, wherein upon the occurrence of at least one fault, this is determined automatically with at least one detection means, so that the error can be eliminated.
- Paper processing machines such as insertion machines, gathering machines or saddle stitchers are comparatively complex and consist of different stations. They are operated at high power and the stations often have their own drives.
- a plug-in machine can have many feeder stations. With these investors sheets are each deducted from a stack and fed, for example, a transport device with pockets. This can not be avoided that occasionally errors occur, so that, for example, no sheets are deducted from a pile, which is said to be false prints. Occur on a feeder at full production speed, for example, such misprints in a row, one speaks of a memori error. The number of false prints leading to a series error is usually adjustable.
- the invention is based on the object to provide a method of the type mentioned, with which the disadvantages mentioned can be at least partially resolved.
- the method is intended to enable the net performance of a paper processing machine to increase and reduce the incidence of unusable printed products.
- a measure is initially taken when a series error occurs in order to counteract the error.
- the machine is not immediately stopped, as before, when an error or a serial error was detected.
- fast running machines like For example, inserters that are operated at up to 50,000 cycles / h, several seconds are required for a machine stop. During this time, more than 40 faulty printed products can be created.
- the machine is given the opportunity to use the time required for a machine stop and to correct the error without triggering an alarm with the help of the counteracting measure.
- a measure excludes a manual intervention and concerns, for example, the reduction of the machine speed.
- Other possible measures, which can also be combined with one another, are the injection of compressed air into, for example, a sheet stack of a feeder magazine and the actuation of mechanical means, for example a vibration or oscillation of a machine part. It has been shown that after such a measure, the error in many cases no longer occurs after a short time and is thus corrected by the machine itself, without causing an alarm, the machine has stopped completely and the error must be corrected manually.
- This self-repairing effect is on the one hand generated by the fact that the machine speed is reduced at a machine stop.
- a vacuum cleaner of a take-off device at half the production speed for the construction of the vacuum twice as much time.
- the sheet stack is moved or at least shaken by the take-off device as a result of the withdrawal attempts continued up to 40 while the machine is being decelerated.
- An intervention by the operator is not necessary in a self-repair. This substantially relieves the corresponding persons. In the case of large systems, it is thus possible to avoid overstraining the operators by means of relatively large distances between individual fault-causing stations of a machine and frequent troubleshooting, as has hitherto sometimes been the case.
- the said criterion is, for example, a variable time duration stored in a control device of the machine or a number of machine cycles. For example, the machine will stop if the error is not resolved after five machine cycles. This number of machine cycles is usually in the range of 1 to 15 cycles.
- the engine speed is re-accelerated to the original engine speed when the error is canceled within said criterion.
- the machine speed is initially not increased to the original machine speed in order to reduce the probability of a repeated occurrence of the same error. If necessary, the speed can later be increased again to the original machine speed after a certain period of time. In particular, a gradual increase in the machine speed is possible.
- a station of the machine such as a feeder, is placed in the crawlspace after the detection of the error.
- This station then runs asynchronously to the basic machine.
- the station will be accelerated again after a self-repair and synchronized with the basic machine. With such an extremely slow movement, an attempt is made to remedy the error, for example the faulty removal of a printed sheet. If it is possible to remedy the error, this station is synchronized again with the basic machine, which now also runs slower.
- the detection means for detecting the error is, for example, a sensor, for example a false-arc sensor on a feeder. This is then preferably arranged in the withdrawal direction according to a take-off device. Thus, for example, can be detected particularly safe when sheets are faulty or not deducted. The number of false prints can thus be determined very secure. But instead of a sensor, too other detection means, such as mechanical means, such as a button conceivable with which, for example, false prints but also double prints can be detected.
- a statistic is kept, for example, in the control device during the term of the investor, how often and in what number SeriefSh arise. This enables a substantial optimization of the process and thus a further increase of the net output.
- Fig. 1 partially shown machine 1 is a plug-in machine having at least one feeder 2, with which of a stack 7 by means of a Deduction device 11 flexible, sheet-like objects, for example, folded sheet 10 withdrawn and fed to a transport device 4.
- the transport device 4 has pockets 5, in which the printed sheets 10 are stored.
- the Fig. 1 shows a sheet 10 a, which is just deducted from the stack 7 and now placed in one of the pockets 5.
- the stored printed sheets 10 are transported in a conveying direction 16.
- several such investors 2 are provided with which each sheet 10 are stored in the pockets 5. So that sheet 10 can be collected or collected to a printed product, such as a newspaper, a magazine or a book block.
- the transport device 4 shown with the pockets 5 are here also other transport devices, such as those with a gathering chain or with grippers possible.
- the withdrawn printed sheets 10 are detected with a detection means 8 and / or a detection means 9. Corresponding data are transmitted to a control device 3.
- the detection means 9 is provided, which is arranged as seen in the withdrawal direction after the extraction device 11.
- the detection means 8 and 9 for example, an optical sensor. But there are also other detection means 8, 9, for example, mechanical or electrical detection means conceivable.
- the feeder 2 can thus have the first detection means 8 or the second detection means 9 or both. With the detection means 8 and 9 can be determined whether a sheet 10 was faulty or not deducted.
- the removal takes place in the machine cycle, for example by means of the extraction device 11, which has suckers not shown here. These suckers lift the lowermost sheet 10 from the stack 7, so that it can be detected and transported by grippers or take-off rollers in a known manner.
- the machine 1 shown with the feeder 2 and the transport device 4 is merely an example of a machine in which the inventive Method is applicable.
- other stations 6 such as a glue, a cutting machine for cutting book blocks or a stapler may be provided.
- the method according to the invention can also be applied to a wide variety of machines 1, such as a stacker, rod jib, saddle stitcher, gathering machine and perfect binder.
- detection means are also possible or already known for error detection.
- This period of time 27 depends on the type of error, but may be comparatively long, for example several minutes. It is conceivable that with larger disturbances, in which components are damaged, an exchange of the investor 2 takes place. Subsequently, the machine 1 is started again until the original machine speed M1 is reached. A period of time 26 is necessary to bring the machine 1 back to the original speed M1. The faulty printed products resulting during the period 24 must be rejected. The time required from the occurrence of the serial defect to the time of reaching the original production speed after a machine stop shows a period of time 25.
- the speed of the feeder 2 and the machine 1 is reduced. If, for example, at a point A of the curve 21 it is determined that due to a self-repair the feeder 2 correctly withdraws the printing sheet 10 again, the speed of the feeder 2 and the machine 1 is increased until the original machine speed M1 has been reached again. Such an increase of the machine speed can also be done later in a point B, if a self-repair later, for example. at a lower engine speed M2 occurs.
- the in Fig. 2 shown much longer time 25 required until the machine 1 is back in operation and the machine speed M1 is reached again.
- the criterion that determines when the machine 1 is stopped is, for example, a certain period of time, a number of cycles or the achievement of a certain, minimum machine speed M3.
- a station 6 such as the feeder 2 and the base machine 1 synchronously.
- asynchronous behavior between the stations 6 and the basic machine 1, as shown by the Fig. 4 is shown. Shown is the method in case of self-repair.
- the curve 12 shows the speed profile of the investor 2. This is offset after the detection of a series error in the crawl.
- the feeder 2 runs at a speed M4, which is for example 1000 cycles / h.
- the feeder 2 and the base machine 1 must each have their own drive, for example a servo drive.
- the leading to a series error number of errors can be fixed or variable in the control device 3.
- the measures mentioned that counteract an error are taken when the error persists, for example, after a corresponding number of deductions.
- the machine speed is lowered when three misprints are detected.
- this number is automatically adjusted during operation to an optimum value. Optimal here means that as few faulty printed products as possible are rejected, but the number of machine stops should be small and the net output should be large.
- a Statistics is led, how often and how many memori errors occur. Based on these statistics, the optimal setting of the serial number of errors is determined.
- control device 3 the machine speed after a in Fig. 5 After a successful self-repair, the curve shown does not adjust to the original value M1 but to a lower value M5, at which fewer disturbances occur. This could further reduce the number of ejected, incomplete printed products. If there are no or very few misprints at the machine speed M5, the control device 3 could increase the speed in stages, thus seeking an optimum machine speed with respect to incomplete printed products and high net output.
- the diagram in Fig. 6 represents two different error statistics by way of example.
- the serial error number S is shown on the X axis, and the number N of the series errors on the Y axis.
- a curve 18 represents a first case in which in most cases after one or two subsequent misprints the sheets are correctly processed again. In this case, for example, the serial error number is set to two here. If a printed product 10 can not be processed, so after only two errors following automatically a measure corresponding to the error is triggered so as to use a possible self-repair effect with as few faulty printed products and no machine stop.
Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Steuerung einer papierverarbeitenden Maschine, wobei beim Auftreten wenigstens eines Fehlers dieser selbsttätig mit wenigstens einem Detektionsmittel festgestellt wird, damit der Fehler behoben werden kann.The invention relates to a method for controlling a paper-processing machine, wherein upon the occurrence of at least one fault, this is determined automatically with at least one detection means, so that the error can be eliminated.
Papierverarbeitende Maschinen, beispielsweise Einsteckmaschinen, Zusammentragmaschinen oder Sammelhefter sind vergleichsweise komplex und bestehen aus unterschiedlichen Stationen. Sie werden mit hohen Leistungen betrieben und die Stationen haben oft eigene Antriebe. Eine Einsteckmaschine kann beispielsweise sehr viele Anlegerstationen aufweisen. Mit diesen Anlegern werden jeweils Bogen von einem Stapel abgezogen und beispielsweise einer Transportvorrichtung mit Taschen zugeführt. Hierbei kann nicht vermieden werden, dass gelegentlich Fehler auftreten, so dass beispielsweise keine Bogen von einem Stapel abgezogen werden, wobei man von Fehlabzügen spricht. Treten an einem Anleger bei voller Produktionsgeschwindigkeit beispielsweise solche Fehlabzüge hintereinander auf, spricht man von einem Seriefehler. Dabei ist die Anzahl von Fehlabzügen, die zu einem Seriefehler führen, üblicherweise einstellbar.Paper processing machines, such as insertion machines, gathering machines or saddle stitchers are comparatively complex and consist of different stations. They are operated at high power and the stations often have their own drives. For example, a plug-in machine can have many feeder stations. With these investors sheets are each deducted from a stack and fed, for example, a transport device with pockets. This can not be avoided that occasionally errors occur, so that, for example, no sheets are deducted from a pile, which is said to be false prints. Occur on a feeder at full production speed, for example, such misprints in a row, one speaks of a serie error. The number of false prints leading to a series error is usually adjustable.
Bei einem Seriefehler wird ein Alarm ausgelöst und die Maschine kontrolliert zum Stehen gebracht. Die Detektion von fehlerhaften Abzügen erfolgt mit einem Fehlbogensensor, der in Abzugsrichtung gesehen vor der Abzugsvorrichtung angeordnet ist. Ist die Maschine gestoppt, so muss der Bediener der Anlage den fehlerverursachenden Anleger inspizieren. Bogen, die die Störung verursacht haben werden manuell entfernt und eventuell neue Einstellungen vorgenommen. Anschliessend muss die Maschine wieder gestartet werden.In the event of a series error, an alarm is triggered and the machine is brought to a controlled stop. The detection of faulty prints is done with a missing sheet sensor, which is arranged in the withdrawal direction in front of the trigger device. If the machine is stopped, the operator of the system must inspect faulty investors. Sheets that caused the fault are removed manually and new settings may be made. Afterwards the machine has to be started again.
Durch das vollständige Anhalten der papierverarbeitenden Maschine beziehungsweise des Anlegers entstehen viele unvollständige, also unbrauchbare Produkte, die im weiteren Verlauf der Weiterverarbeitung ausgeschleust oder vervollständigt werden müssen. Das notwendige Beheben solcher Fehler braucht Zeit und bewirkt eine wesentliche Verminderung der Nettoleistung einer Maschine. Zudem ist die Wiederaufnahme der Produktion ein sehr kritischer Vorgang, der oft zu weiteren Folgeunterbrüchen führen kann. Maschinen, bei denen Fehler und insbesondere Seriefehler auftreten können, die einen Maschinenstopp erfordern, sind beispielsweise Schneidmaschinen, Kreuzleger, Stangenausleger, Transportvorrichtungen oder auch andere papierverarbeitende Maschinen.Due to the complete stopping of the paper-processing machine or of the investor, many incomplete, that is to say unusable, products are produced, which must be removed or completed in the further course of the further processing. The necessary repair of such errors takes time and causes a significant reduction in the net power of a machine. In addition, the resumption of production is a very critical process that can often lead to further consequential interruptions. Machines in which errors, and in particular series errors, which require a machine stop, can occur, for example, cutting machines, stackers, bar outriggers, transport devices or even other paper-processing machines.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zu Grunde, ein Verfahren der genannten Art zu schaffen, mit dem die genannten Nachteile wenigstens teilweise behoben werden können. Das Verfahren soll ermöglichen, die Nettoleistung einer papierverarbeitenden Maschine zu erhöhen und das Entstehen unbrauchbarer Druckprodukte zu vermindern.The invention is based on the object to provide a method of the type mentioned, with which the disadvantages mentioned can be at least partially resolved. The method is intended to enable the net performance of a paper processing machine to increase and reduce the incidence of unusable printed products.
Die Aufgabe ist bei dem erfindungsgemässen Verfahren dadurch gelöst, dass nach dem Feststellen des Fehlers selbsttätig eine Massnahme getroffen wird um dem Fehler entgegen zu wirken und dass die Massnahme wenigstens teilweise aufgehoben wird, wenn der Fehler nicht mehr auftritt oder dass die Maschine vollständig gestoppt wird, wenn der Fehler nach Ablauf eines bestimmten Kriteriums weiterhin von den Detektionsmitteln festgestellt wird. Beim erfindungsgemässen Verfahren wird somit beim Auftreten eines Seriefehlers zunächst eine Massnahme getroffen, um dem Fehler entgegenzuwirken. Die Maschine wird somit nicht wie bisher beim Feststellen eines Fehlers beziehungsweise eines Seriefehlers in jedem Fall sofort gestoppt. Bei schnell laufenden Maschinen, wie beispielsweise Einsteckmaschinen, die mit bis zu 50'000 Takten/h betrieben werden, werden für einen Maschinenstopp mehrere Sekunden benötigt. In dieser Zeit können über 40 fehlerhafte Druckprodukte entstehen. Der Maschine wird nun nach einem Seriefehler vielmehr die Möglichkeit gegeben, die Zeit, die für einen Maschinenstopp notwendig ist, zu nutzen und ohne die Auslösung eines Alarms mit Hilfe der entgegenwirkenden Massnahme den Fehler zu beheben. Eine solche Massnahme schliesst einen manuellen Eingriff aus und betrifft beispielsweise die Verminderung der Maschinengeschwindigkeit. Andere mögliche Massnahmen, die auch miteinander kombiniert werden können, sind Einblasen von Druckluft beispielsweise in einen Bogenstapel eines Anlegermagazins und die Betätigung von mechanischen Mitteln, beispielsweise ein Vibrieren oder oszillieren eines Maschinenteils. Es hat sich gezeigt, dass nach einer solchen Massnahme der Fehler in vielen Fällen nach kurzer Zeit nicht mehr auftritt und somit von der Maschine selbst behoben wird, ohne dass ein Alarm ausgelöst, die Maschine vollständig gestoppt und der Fehler manuell behoben werden muss. Dieser Selbstreparatureffekt wird einerseits dadurch erzeugt, dass die Maschinengeschwindigkeit bei einem Maschinenstopp verringert wird. So hat beispielsweise ein Sauger einer Abzugsvorrichtung bei halber Produktionsgeschwindigkeit für den Aufbau des Vakuums doppelt soviel Zeit. Andererseits wird durch die bis zu 40 während dem Abbremsen der Maschine fortgesetzten Abzugsversuche der Bogenstapel durch die Abzugsvorrichtung bewegt oder zumindest erschüttert. Dadurch steigt die Wahrscheinlichkeit markant an, dass Druckbogen wieder abgezogen werden können. Einen Eingriff durch den Bediener ist bei einer Selbstreparatur nicht notwendig. Dies entlastet die entsprechenden Personen wesentlich. Bei grossen Anlagen kann damit vermieden werden, dass durch verhältnismässig grosse Distanzen zwischen einzelnen störungsverursachenden Stationen einer Maschine und der häufigen Fehlersuche die Bediener überfordert werden, wie dies bisher manchmal der Fall war.The object is achieved in the inventive method in that after the detection of the error automatically a measure is taken to counteract the error and that the measure is at least partially canceled if the error does not occur or that the machine is stopped completely if the error is still detected by the detection means after the expiry of a certain criterion. In the method according to the invention, therefore, a measure is initially taken when a series error occurs in order to counteract the error. Thus, the machine is not immediately stopped, as before, when an error or a serial error was detected. For fast running machines, like For example, inserters that are operated at up to 50,000 cycles / h, several seconds are required for a machine stop. During this time, more than 40 faulty printed products can be created. Instead, after a series error, the machine is given the opportunity to use the time required for a machine stop and to correct the error without triggering an alarm with the help of the counteracting measure. Such a measure excludes a manual intervention and concerns, for example, the reduction of the machine speed. Other possible measures, which can also be combined with one another, are the injection of compressed air into, for example, a sheet stack of a feeder magazine and the actuation of mechanical means, for example a vibration or oscillation of a machine part. It has been shown that after such a measure, the error in many cases no longer occurs after a short time and is thus corrected by the machine itself, without causing an alarm, the machine has stopped completely and the error must be corrected manually. This self-repairing effect is on the one hand generated by the fact that the machine speed is reduced at a machine stop. For example, a vacuum cleaner of a take-off device at half the production speed for the construction of the vacuum twice as much time. On the other hand, the sheet stack is moved or at least shaken by the take-off device as a result of the withdrawal attempts continued up to 40 while the machine is being decelerated. As a result, the probability increases significantly that printed sheets can be deducted again. An intervention by the operator is not necessary in a self-repair. This substantially relieves the corresponding persons. In the case of large systems, it is thus possible to avoid overstraining the operators by means of relatively large distances between individual fault-causing stations of a machine and frequent troubleshooting, as has hitherto sometimes been the case.
Kann trotz dieser selbsttätig getroffenen Massnahme der Fehler innerhalb des bestimmten Kriteriums nicht durch Selbstreparatur aufgehoben werden, so wird die Maschine gestoppt. Das genannte Kriterium ist beispielsweise eine veränderbare, in einer Steuervorrichtung der Maschine gespeicherte Zeitdauer oder eine Anzahl Maschinentakte. Die Maschine wird beispielsweise gestoppt, wenn der Fehler nach fünf Maschinentakten nicht behoben ist. Diese Anzahl von Maschinentakten liegt in der Regel im Bereich von 1 bis 15 Takten.If, despite this self-imposed measure, the error within the given criterion can not be reversed by self-repair, then the machine stopped. The said criterion is, for example, a variable time duration stored in a control device of the machine or a number of machine cycles. For example, the machine will stop if the error is not resolved after five machine cycles. This number of machine cycles is usually in the range of 1 to 15 cycles.
Vorzugsweise wird die Maschinengeschwindigkeit wieder auf die ursprüngliche Maschinengeschwindigkeit beschleunigt, wenn der Fehler innerhalb des genannten Kriteriums aufgehoben ist. Denkbar ist aber auch, dass die Maschinengeschwindigkeit zunächst nicht bis zur ursprünglichen Maschinengeschwindigkeit erhöht wird, um die Wahrscheinlichkeit eines wiederholten Auftretens des gleichen Fehlers zu vermindern. Die Geschwindigkeit kann gegebenenfalls später nach einer gewissen Zeitdauer wieder auf die ursprüngliche Maschinengeschwindigkeit erhöht werden. Möglich ist insbesondere eine stufenweise Erhöhung der Maschinengeschwindigkeit.Preferably, the engine speed is re-accelerated to the original engine speed when the error is canceled within said criterion. However, it is also conceivable that the machine speed is initially not increased to the original machine speed in order to reduce the probability of a repeated occurrence of the same error. If necessary, the speed can later be increased again to the original machine speed after a certain period of time. In particular, a gradual increase in the machine speed is possible.
Nach einer Weiterbildung der Erfindung wird nach dem Feststellen des Fehlers eine Station der Maschine, beispielsweise ein Anleger, in den Kriechgang versetzt. Diese Station läuft dann asynchron zur Grundmaschine. Die Station wird nach einer Selbstreparatur wieder beschleunigt und mit der Grundmaschine synchronisiert. Mit einer solchen extrem langsamen Bewegung wird versucht, den Fehler, beispielsweise das fehlerhafte Abziehen eines Druckbogens zu beheben. Gelingt es, den Fehler zu beheben, so wird diese Station, wieder mit der Grundmaschine synchronisiert, die mittlerweile ebenfalls langsamer läuft.According to a development of the invention, a station of the machine, such as a feeder, is placed in the crawlspace after the detection of the error. This station then runs asynchronously to the basic machine. The station will be accelerated again after a self-repair and synchronized with the basic machine. With such an extremely slow movement, an attempt is made to remedy the error, for example the faulty removal of a printed sheet. If it is possible to remedy the error, this station is synchronized again with the basic machine, which now also runs slower.
Das Detektionsmittel zum Feststellen des Fehlers ist beispielsweise ein Sensor, beispielsweise ein Fehlbogensensor an einem Anleger. Dieser ist dann vorzugsweise in Abzugsrichtung gesehen nach einer Abzugsvorrichtung angeordnet. Damit kann beispielsweise besonders sicher detektiert werden, wenn Druckbogen fehlerhaft oder nicht abgezogen werden. Die Anzahl der Fehlabzüge kann somit besonders sicher festgestellt werden. Anstelle eines Sensors sind hier aber auch andere Detektionsmittel, beispielsweise mechanische Mittel, beispielsweise ein Taster denkbar, mit denen beispielsweise Fehlabzüge aber auch Doppelabzüge detektiert werden können.The detection means for detecting the error is, for example, a sensor, for example a false-arc sensor on a feeder. This is then preferably arranged in the withdrawal direction according to a take-off device. Thus, for example, can be detected particularly safe when sheets are faulty or not deducted. The number of false prints can thus be determined very secure. But instead of a sensor, too other detection means, such as mechanical means, such as a button conceivable with which, for example, false prints but also double prints can be detected.
Nach einer Weiterbildung der Erfindung wird während der Laufzeit des Anlegers beispielsweise in der Steuervorrichtung eine Statistik geführt, wie oft und in welcher Anzahl Seriefehler entstehen. Diese ermöglicht eine wesentliche Optimierung des Verfahrens und damit eine weitere Erhöhung der Nettoleistung.According to a development of the invention, a statistic is kept, for example, in the control device during the term of the investor, how often and in what number Serieffehler arise. This enables a substantial optimization of the process and thus a further increase of the net output.

Die abgezogenen Druckbogen 10 werden mit einem Detektionsmittel 8 und / oder einem Detektionsmittel 9 detektiert. Entsprechende Daten werden einer Steuervorrichtung 3 übermittelt. Vorzugsweise ist das Detektionsmittel 9 vorgesehen, welches wie ersichtlich in Abzugsrichtung gesehen nach der Abzugsvorrichtung 11 angeordnet ist. Das Detektionsmittel 8 bzw. 9 ist beispielsweise ein optischer Sensor. Es sind hier aber auch andere Detektionsmittel 8, 9, beispielsweise mechanische oder elektrische Erfassungsmittel denkbar. Der Anleger 2 kann somit das erste Detektionsmittel 8 oder das zweite Detektionsmittel 9 oder auch beide aufweisen. Mit den Detektionsmitteln 8 und 9 kann festgestellt werden, ob ein Druckbogen 10 fehlerhaft oder nicht abgezogen wurde. Das Abziehen erfolgt im Maschinentakt beispielsweise mittels der Abzugsvorrichtung 11, welche hier nicht gezeigte Sauger aufweist. Diese Sauger heben den untersten Druckbogen 10 vom Stapel 7 ab, damit dieser von Greifern oder Abzugswalzen in bekannter Weise erfasst und transportiert werden kann.The withdrawn printed
Die gezeigte Maschine 1 mit dem Anleger 2 und der Transportvorrichtung 4 ist lediglich ein Beispiel für eine Maschine, bei welcher das erfindungsgemässe Verfahren anwendbar ist. Anstelle des Anlegers 2, können auch andere Stationen 6 wie beispielsweise ein Waren kleber, eine Schneidmaschine zum Schneiden von Buchblöcken oder eine Heftmaschine vorgesehen sein. Auch kann das erfindungsgemässe Verfahren bei den verschiedensten Maschinen 1 wie Kreuzleger, Stangenausleger, Sammelhefter, Zusammentragmaschine und Klebebinder angewendet werden. Hier sind zur Fehlerdetektion ebenfalls Detektionsmittel möglich bzw. bereits bekannt.The
Wird mit dem Detektionsmittel 8 bzw. 9 eine bestimmte Anzahl von Fehlabzügen bzw. ein Seriefehler festgestellt, so wurde bisher bzw. nach dem Stand der Technik ein Alarm ausgelöst und die Maschine 1 gestoppt, eine Maschinengeschwindigkeit M1 somit auf null abgesenkt. Dies ist anhand einer Kurve 20 in der
Beim erfindungsgemässen Verfahren wird wie in
Anstelle einer Verminderung der Maschinengeschwindigkeit oder zusätzlich zu dieser können andere Massnahmen getroffen werden, welche den Selbstreparatureffekt unterstützen. Beispielsweise kann mit einer Luftdüse in einem geeigneten Bereich Luft eingeblasen werden. Möglich ist auch eine in
Beim Verfahren gemäss der
Die zu einem Seriefehler führende Anzahl von Fehlern kann in der Steuervorrichtung 3 fest vorgegeben oder veränderbar sein. Die genannten Massnahmen, die einem Fehler entgegenwirken, werden ergriffen, wenn der Fehler beispielsweise nach einer entsprechenden Anzahl Leerabzüge weiter besteht. Beispielsweise wird die Maschinengeschwindigkeit gesenkt, wenn drei Fehlabzüge festgestellt werden. Vorzugsweise wird diese Anzahl während des Betriebs selbsttätig an einen optimalen Wert angepasst. Optimal bedeutet hier, dass so wenig fehlerhafte Druckprodukte wie möglich ausgeschleust werden, wobei aber die Anzahl Maschinenstopps klein und die Nettoleistung gross sein soll. Um diesen optimalen Wert der Seriefehleranzahl einzustellen, ist vorgesehen, dass während der Laufzeit des Anlegers 2 mittels der Steuervorrichtung 3 eine Statistik geführt wird, wie oft und in welcher Anzahl Seriefehler entstehen. Anhand dieser Statistik wird die optimale Einstellung der Seriefehleranzahl ermittelt.The leading to a series error number of errors can be fixed or variable in the
Es ist weiter denkbar, dass die Steuervorrichtung 3 die Maschinengeschwindigkeit nach einer in
Das Diagramm in
In einem mit der Kurve 19 dargestellten zweiten Fall werden die Bogen offensichtlich teilweise erst nach mehreren Fehlabzügen in Serie wieder korrekt abgezogen. In diesem zweiten Fall wird die Seriefehleranzahl grösser gewählt als im ersten Fall beispielsweise wird hier der Wert sechs eingesetzt. Damit können unnötige Maschinenstopps vermieden und trotzdem wird lediglich eine überschaubare Menge an Druckprodukten fehlerhaft erzeugt und ausgeschleust. In beiden Fällen kommt es nur äusserst selten vor, dass ein Druckbogen 10 in einem Anleger nach mehreren Fehlabzügen von der Abzugsvorrichtung 11 nicht erfasst werden kann. Dazu kann es kommen, wenn beispielsweise ein aufgesteckter Sauger der Abzugsvorrichtung 11 defekt oder abgefallen ist. Ein Maschinenstopp für einen manuellen Eingriff wird dann notwendig.In a second case shown with the
Mit dem erfindungsgemässen Verfahren können selbsttätig durch Einleiten von Massnahmen nicht nur Fehler wie die beschriebenen Fehlabzügen beim Anleger 2 behoben werden. Selbstverständlich können auch Doppelabzüge, bei denen zwei Druckbogen miteinander abgezogen werden, mit mechanischen Mitteln 38, wie beispielsweise das automatische Einbringen von zusätzlichen Separiermitteln oder das gezielte Einblasen von Luft in den Stapel, durch Selbstreparatur behoben werden.With the method according to the invention, not only errors such as the misprints described at the feeder 2 can be remedied automatically by introducing measures. Of course, double prints, in which two sheets are withdrawn together, by
Bei einer Anlage mit mehreren Anlegern 2 wurden in einem Versuch während einer Betriebszeit von 3 Stunden 35 Seriefehler festgestellt. In 28 Fällen trat ein Selbstreparatureffekt auf Grund einer kurzzeitig gesenkten Maschinengeschwindigkeit auf. Lediglich in 7 Fällen war ein vollständiger Maschinenstopp erforderlich. Entsprechend weniger oft musste Alarm ausgelöst werden, was den Bediener vor unnötiger Fehlersuche entlastete. Verglichen mit dem Stand der Technik konnte durch das jeweilige Einleiten von Massnahmen nach einem Seriefehler und durch die eintretenden Selbstreparatureffekte die Nettoleistung markant erhöht und die Anzahl ausgeschleuster Druckprodukte vermindert werden.In a
