Abstract
A printing press, in particular an offset printing press comprising a plurality of individually operable setting motors, in particular for adjusting the inkfilm density profile, each setting motor being connected to a pick-up generating electric signals characteristic of the actual position of the setting motor at any given moment (actual values) comprises an electronic comparator arrangement (35, 44) which is supplied with the actual values and, in addition, desired values for the position of the individual setting motors (9) and which repeatedly scans the actual values sequentially in a cyclical time sequence and compares each actual value with the related desired value to form a setting signal for operation of the associated setting motor in the forward or reverse direction when a given positive or negative minimum deviation is exceeded. The setting signals are fed to a switching arrangement (52) designed to cause the respective setting motor to be stopped or driven at a pre-determined speed in the sense of rotation determined by the last setting signal until the next signal is received. Thus it is rendered possible to easily control a plurality of setting motors.
