Latest Patents
Lasecki is credited with 1 patent: “Anti-wrinkle system for a web offset press.” The invention uses a spreader roller during startup to stretch wrinkles out of the moving paper web. As the press accelerates and thermal contraction provides the needed stretching, the roller retracts to help prevent ink smearing. Uneven pressure from the spreader can also steer the web and improve its centering.
