Printing device and die-cutting device

Abstract

A printing device of the type for printing a strip-like printing article having a printing impression roller which is movable forwards while rotating in one direction and backwards while rotating in the opposite direction, along a line perpendicular to the direction of feeding a strip-like printing article is provided with a slide base which is slidable along rails which extend in a direction perpendicular to the direction of feeding of the printing article. Ink tanks and a roller train are mounted on the slide base. The roller train includes an ink fountain roller, a duct roller whose peripheral surface is in contact with the ink fountain roller, a stationary metallic roller whose peripheral surface is in contact with the duct roller, a first ink distribution roller whose peripheral surface is in contact with the metallic roller, and a second ink distribution roller whose peripheral surface is in contact with the first ink distribution roller. The contact between the first ink distribution roller and the second ink distribution roller of the roll train with ink rollers is separated by the movement of the slide base.
