Abstract
Method for form-processing paper in a printing press by at least one processing tool and a computer includes converting digital data representing desired processing geometries into signals in the computer, and controlling the at least one processing tool with the signals so as to obtain the processing geometries: and apparatus for performing the method.
Claims14
An apparatus for cutting a printing material in a printing press to any desired, curved or straight, two-dimensional geometry form with reference to a printing surface of the printing material, comprising:
- a computer having an input for digital data representing the desired, curved or straight, two-dimensional geometry form and an output for control signals;
- at least one printing material cutting tool being mounted on output side of the printing press and operatively connected to said computer and controlled by said control signals, said at least one printing material cutting tool using a laser diode for cutting the printing material to the desired, curved or straight, two-dimensional geometric form.
An apparatus for cutting a printing material in a printing press to any desired, curved or straight, two-dimensional geometry form with reference to a printing surface of the printing material, comprising:
- a printing press for preprinting a printing material using a light absorbent printing ink;
- a computer having an input for digital data representing the desired, curved or straight, two-dimensional geometry form and an output for control signals;
- and
- at least one printing material cutting tool being operatively connected to said computer and controlled by said control signals, said at least one printing material cutting tool being mounted on an output side of said printing press and outputting a cutting light for cutting the printing material to the desired, curved or straight, two-dimensional geometric form.
