The circumference of the screen roller and the circumference of the ink applicator roller and the arc length or curve length of the gap are dimensioned in predetermined proportions relative to each other so as to avoid ghosting. | 06-09-2011 |
20140013971 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR FACILITATING OIL DELIVERY IN DIGITAL OFFSET LITHOGRAPHIC PRINTING TECHNIQUES - A system and method are provided that incorporate a multi-layer plate configuration for a Digital Offset Plate (DOP) including at least a robust top imaging layer and a bottom layer that acts as a reservoir for the releasing oil in a proposed variable digital offset lithographic architecture. The top imaging layer may contain a small amount of oil (<20%) in a range suitable for allowing a small amount of oil to coat the surface and enable release of the ink. A bottom layer may be larger in volume and contain greater quantities (˜20-75%) of oil. Oil from the reservoir layer may diffuse to and through the top layer when the oil in the top surface layer is depleted in a manner that maintains a supply of oil at the surface. The top layer may act as a gate to maintain a steady flow of oil to the surface. | 01-16-2014 |
20130327236 | LEP PRINTER, A PHOTO IMAGING PLATE FOR SUCH PRINTER AND A METHOD FOR WIPING SUCH PHOTO IMAGING PLATE - In an LEP printer having a wiper blade for wiping a photo imaging plate, the photo imaging plate may include a PIP foil with a trailing edge having a zone of a roughening pattern which includes notches that are inclined with respect to a contact line of the wiper blade. The zone of roughening pattern is confined between two opposite margins lacking any roughening. | 12-12-2013 |
