"The
Printficient monitoring
system is a strain gauge based data acquisition system which measures inking roller
pressure on an offset printing press. This information may be used to aid operators by
reducing setup time and insuring consistent roller pressure throughout a production
cycle."
"The
Printficient monitoring system displays real time inking roller pressures from each end of
the inking rollers, thus enabling operators to, at a glance, determine if their setup is
distributing the desired roller pressure uniformly. The operator interface displays to the
user a color coded graph which represents the pressure being applied on each bearing of
the roller. Once the desired setup has been achieved all pressure, temperature, and
humidity information may be recorded which can then be recalled the next the time the
label is run. Potential benefits include:
