Abstract
Apparatus is disclosed for controlling the operation cycle of a duplicating machine. Each complete operation cycle of the duplicator includes plate loading, eching, inking, imaging, duplicating, blanket cleaning and plate removing processes. The number of revolutions of any cylinders constituting the duplicator and rotated synchronously with each other are counted by a counter. The counter starts and terminates its counting operation every time each of all the processes required for the duplicator is started and completed, in order to determine the period of time for carrying out each of the processes, thereby enabling always to maintain the best and uniform printing effect through a simpler and easier control than in a conventional duplicator.
