Printing unit with short inking system in a rotary printing machine for direct printing using a 'waterless' planographic printing plate

摘要

A printing unit of a rotary printing press utilizes a "waterless" planographic printing plate which is fastened on a printing cylinder. This "waterless" planographic printing plate receives ink from a short inking unit and directly prints a material to be printed. An additional printing cylinder, that is also equipped with a "waterless" planographic printing plate, acts as the counterpressure cylinder.
