Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0904936A2] A Method for removing and replacing impression cylinders in a flexographic press is described, in which the said impression cylinders (19) are fitted to slide along guides (14) parallel to one another, wherein the cylinder shafts (22) are engaged from beneath and lifted by an amount not less than the difference in height between the lower end of the impression cylinder and the upper end of the devices positioned downstream of the said cylinder, following which the said cylinders are traversed to remove them. To this end an equipment is provided, including: a carriage with a chassis (31) fitted to slide along the structure (29) of the said carriage; pairs of supports (34), integral with the said mobile chassis (31), which are designed to receive the ends of the impression cylinder shafts (22); equipment to raise the said chassis. <IMAGE>
