Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0406737A2] An offset printing unit has a blanket cylinder, a plate cylinder, a forme inking cylinder, having a resilient operating surface, which cylinders are all driven at the same rotational speed, and a screen roller feeding ink to the forme inking cylinder. In order to avoid a slipping movement between the plate cylinder and the forme inking cylinder, the forme inking cylinder has a diameter of about 99% of the diameter of the plate cylinder. The forme inking cylinder has a coating made of an elastic, ink-receptive material, the thickness of which coating is 2 to 3% of the diameter of the forme inking cylinder and which has a Shore hardness of 60 to 70 DEG . For operation, the forme inking cylinder is placed against the plate cylinder in such a way that it is in contact with the plate cylinder over a length of 7 to 9 mm in the circumferential direction. <IMAGE>
