A DOCTOR BLADE ASSEMBLY WITH SUPPORT IN A ROTOGRAVURE PRINTING UNIT

摘要

The present invention refers to a novel support for a doctor blade (31) in a rotogravure printing machines. The doctor blade (31) performs a smooth lateral oscillation to remove ink that tends to dry behind the doctor blade (31), and thanks to the lack of gearing for conducting the motion, the system is extremely precise and low in maintenance. The novel support is made of two elastic laminar members (41, 42) on each side of the doctor blade (31).
