Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0408958A2] Method for measuring the web (110) deviation in a polychromatic rotary printing machine, using a mark printed at the time of each colour, this mark passing under photoelectric detectors in order to generate signals the result of whose combination represents the lateral deviation. The method consists:   - in disposing above the web (110) two laterally adjacent photoelectric detectors (130/135), their common edge being located over the expected passage of the centre of a laterally symmetrical mark (120),   - in deriving the lateral deviation of the web (110) from the difference between the variations in intensity (d1, d2) of the signals (a1, a2) seen by each of the two photoelectric detectors (130/135) during the passage of the mark (120). <IMAGE>
