example 1

[0128] A rubber belt is provided as intermediate carrier 2 , the structure of which is preferably comparable to that of offset blankets. An approximately 2 μm thick layer of TPnB (tripropylene glycol n-butyl ether, eg product tripropylene glycol butyl ether TPnB) is applied to the rubber belt by means of spray beams 18 . Water-based and binder-based inks are applied last.

example 2

[0130] A Teflon-coated conveyor belt is provided as intermediate carrier 2 . An approximately 4 μm thick layer of DPM is applied thereon as a separating layer (dipropylene glycol methyl ether, eg the product dipropylene glycol methyl ether DPM). The application can be effected by means of a roller system, in particular similar to an offset dampening device. A thin dispersed varnish layer of approximately 0.1 to approximately 1 μm is then applied, which is dried and then forms a skin on the DPM. A separate dryer can be provided for this purpose, in the figure 1 is not shown but can be placed directly behind the application device 18 . Water-based and binder-based inks, in particular so-called latex inks, are applied last.

example 3

[0132] A belt or a roller cover is used as intermediate carrier 2, the material of which is comparable to known offset blankets. A thin oil layer of approximately 0.1 to approximately 1 μm, in particular a vegetable oil such as sunflower oil, is applied as a separating layer to the intermediate carrier. Finally the organic solvent based ink is applied.

Abstract

A method for the indirect application of printing liquid onto a printing material provides an intermediate carrier, preferably a circulating belt, a liquid conditioning medium including a first substance applied onto the intermediate carrier and a printing liquid, in particular an inkjet ink, including a second substance applied onto the conditioning medium on the intermediate carrier. The printing liquid is situated as droplets or a layer substantially on the conditioning medium and the droplets or the layer form a contact region on their underside with the conditioning medium. The printing liquid is heated, preferably by way of a dryer and the printing liquid is transferred from the intermediate carrier onto the printing material.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for the indirect application of a printing liquid to a printing substrate. Background technique [0002] Various methods and devices for indirect inkjet as described above are known from the prior art. In this case, a plurality of inkjet printing inks or inks are applied, ie sprayed, onto a surrounding intermediate carrier by means of inkjet printing heads positioned behind one another, depending on the printing image. The printing ink or the multicolored printing image is transferred from the intermediate carrier, for example a transfer belt or a transfer cylinder, to a substrate, for example a sheet or a paper web. The coloring is thus not transferred directly but indirectly via the surface of the transfer device to the substrate. The surface must therefore be realized or treated in such a way that the necessary ink transfer is possible, that is to say the surface must accept the ink and again be able to emit optio...
