Abstract

See full text

A method and apparatus for handling printing plates on a web-fed printing press is disclosed. Printing plates imaged on an imaging device are assigned a coding relating to the plate cylinder position of the printing couple at which the respective printing plate is used. Imaged printing plates are inserted into cassettes such that printing plates for several printing couples are positioned in each cassette, where each cassette is assigned a data record relating to the position at which each printing plate is arranged within the respective cassette. The loaded cassettes are conveyed to the region of the printing couples where the data record assigned to the cassettes is also made available in the region of the printing couples. The printing plates are removed from the cassettes and, with a comparison to the data record assigned to the respective cassette, supplied to the respective printing couples.
