Two-dimensional register error

Abstract

On contemporary web printing machines, longitudinal and lateral register control of high precision is a crucial requirement for successful use in the roll-to-roll production of multi-layer electronic components. In the present study, an overview of mathematical models of two-dimensional register errors is shown. Simulation of the register errors is enabled by the use of a multi-layer model. Representation of the influencing variables on the lateral and longitudinal register errors and the mass flow chain is given in a joint block diagram that can be further used for simulation purposes.
