International Classification:
B65H 2966
US Classification:
271 98, 271 11
Abstract:
The present invention provides an apparatus and method for removing a slip sheet from the top of a stack of printing plates. The apparatus includes a wing for covering an end section of the slip sheet, an air manifold coupled to an end of the wing, the air manifold including a plurality of orifices for directing streams of air along an underside of the wing to lift the end portion of the slip sheet off of the printing plate and toward the underside of the wing, a plurality of idler rollers rotatably mounted about the air manifold, and a clamping bar mounted to the wing for selectively pinching the lifted end section of the slip sheet against the underside of the wing, thereby capturing the slip sheet.
Method For Reducing Perceivable Artifacts In A Printed Image
A method for reducing artifacts in a color printed image, that are perceivable by the naked eye, includes using a different imaging beam to start imaging each printing plate that is used for a different color plane. Alternatively, a different set of imaging beams may be used to image each printing plate used for a different color plane. The method does not require manipulating image data. The method diffuses some errors throughout the printed image and prevents some errors from being imaged and/or printed which reduces or eliminates the visible perception of artifacts.
Imaging System And Method Employing Illumination Field De-Focus At The Illumination Modulator
Stephen Sagan - Lexington MA, US David Larsen - Woburn MA, US
International Classification:
G02B 27/10
US Classification:
359618000
Abstract:
An imaging system and method are disclosed which includes a high power illumination source for providing a first illumination field at the surface of an illumination modulator, the illumination field is defocused at the surface of the illumination modulator reducing the power density at the illumination modulator. Subsequent to the illumination modulator an anamorphic optical element(s) is provided to refocus the illumination field at an image surface coincident with the focus of the illumination modulator at that image surface.
Method And Apparatus For Combining A Plurality Of Images Without Incurring A Visible Seam
David B. Larsen - Woburn MA John F. Nolan - Haverhill MA David Coppeta - Newburyport MA Norman F. Rolfe - Carlisle MA
Assignee:
AGFA Corporation - Wilmington MA
International Classification:
B41J 2435
US Classification:
347235
Abstract:
The present invention eliminates artifacts in an image formed using a plurality of imaging sources. Visible seams in the image are eliminated by randomizing the stitch point between the scan lines produced by each imaging source. The randomization may be optimized by additionally applying a method for relocating the random stitch point based on the data content of the scan line, adjacent scan lines, and other criteria. The present invention further compensates for in-scan and cross-scan errors caused by thermally induced errors, spinner synchronization errors, mechanical misalignment, and other factors associated with the use of a plurality of imaging systems. A photodetector system, comprising a mask having a pair of triangular openings, provides measurements of the in-scan and cross-scan errors.

International Classification:
G02B 2608
US Classification:
359198
Abstract:
A system for scanning a surface includes a radiation emitter configured to emit at least one beam of radiation, and a rotating deflector for deflecting the beam(s) onto a scanning surface. The deflector is movable along a translation axis to modify the path of the deflected beam(s) and thereby correct for any mispositioning of the beam(s) with respect to the scanning surface.

Agfa Division, Bayer Corporation - Wilmington MA
International Classification:
H01J 314
US Classification:
250234
Abstract:
A scanning system for scanning an imaging surface includes a radiation emitter configured to emit a beam of radiation directed towards a deflector for scanning the beam onto the imaging surface. A detector detects any misalignment of the beam with respect to the deflector. A driver moves a correction element substantially perpendicular to the beam axis of the correction element to correct for the detected misalignment during scanning of the imaging surface.
Method And Apparatus For Shielding Light In An Internal Drum Imaging System

International Classification:
B41J 247
US Classification:
347262
Abstract:
A collapsible shield for shielding the imaging beam of an internal drum imaging system. The collapsible shield is configured to be positioned in an extended position to enclose the imaging beam during scanning of an imaging material, and positioned in a retracted position during loading of the imaging material into the imaging system.
