Printing and Processes II

The course gives an overview of materials and machines in the area of printing processes.

The lecture includes part I:

Machines: Systematics and overview of the machine components and variants in the different process stages, design of the material flow of printing and printing material, web guiding, machine and process control, characteristic assemblies, precision, special features in production.

Part II: Material properties: Mechanical properties of flexible and rigid substrates, substrate rheology, dynamic behavior in layer formation, material transport and drying.

In the exercise, the content of the material is deepened in calculation examples and tasks for the configuration and design of machines and processes.
