Machines within the factory
➢ Central Drum Machine
A central drum machine with 4 colors is a mechanical device commonly used in industrial
processes for various applications, such as printing, labeling, or packaging. This type of
machine typically consists of a central rotating drum with four distinct color stations or printing
units. Each color station is equipped with the necessary components for applying a specific
color of ink or other substances onto a substrate, such as paper, plastic, or fabric.

Figure 2: Central Drum Machine [2]

The key components and functions of a central drum machine with 4 colors:

1. Central Drum: the heart of the machine. It rotates continuously or intermittently,

carrying the substrate through the different color stations. Its precise movement ensures
accurate registration of colors on the substrate.
2. Color Stations: A central drum machine with 4 colors has four separate color stations
Which are Cayne, red, yellow, and black, using these four colors you can create any
color you want.
3. Ink Reservoirs: it holds the specific color of ink required for printing. These reservoirs
can be filled or replenished as needed to maintain a steady ink supply.
4. Ink Rollers: used to transfer ink from the reservoirs onto the printing plates or
applicators. They ensure an even and consistent distribution of ink, which is crucial for
achieving high-quality prints.
5. Printing Plates or Applicators: Depending on the application, the color stations can
use printing plates, rollers, or other types of applicators to transfer the ink onto the
substrate. The printing plates or applicators are designed with patterns or designs
corresponding to the desired image or text to be printed.
6. Registration and Control: Accurate registration is essential to ensure that each color
is applied in the correct position, maintaining alignment and preventing color shifts.
Modern central drum machines often feature advanced control systems such as PLCs
that allow for precise adjustments and monitoring of the color application process.
7. Substrate Handling: The substrate, whether it's a label, packaging material, or any
other material, is fed into the machine and guided through the color stations on the
rotating central drum. Proper substrate handling mechanisms ensure consistent feeding
and movement, contributing to the overall print quality.

 8. Drying Systems: after the ink is applied, the printed substrate may pass through a
drying system to evaporate solvents or fix the ink onto the material. Drying can be
accomplished through heat, UV light, or other methods, depending on the type of ink
and substrate.

The motor in a central drum machine with 4 colors is responsible for driving the rotation of the
central drum and maintaining the synchronization required for accurate color application. The
motor's control, precision, and reliability are essential for achieving high-quality and consistent
printing results in various industrial applications.

Figure 3: DC Stepper Motors

That’s why they use DC stepper motor, it is responsible for driving the rotation of the central
drum. By accurately controlling the number of steps the motor takes using PLCs, the machine
can achieve precise alignment of colors during the printing process.

➢ Bielloni Flexo Printing Machine

Bielloni flexo printing machines are high-speed, high-quality printing presses that are used for
a variety of applications, including packaging, labels, and corrugated board. They are known
for their durability, reliability, and ease of use.

Figure 6: Bielloni Flexo Printing Machine

The Bielloni flexo printing machine is composed of the following main components:

• Inking system: The inking system provides the ink that is used to print the image. It
consists of an anilox roller, a fountain roller, and a doctor blade.
• Printing unit: The printing unit is where the image is transferred from the plate to the
substrate. It consists of a plate cylinder, a blanket cylinder, and a pressure roller.
• Delivery system: The delivery system ensures that the printed material is properly
transported away from the machine. It consists of a winder or a cutter.

The Bielloni flexo printing machine also uses several electrical machines, including:

• Motors: The motors provide the power to drive the various components of the
machine. They are typically AC motors, but DC motors can also be used.
• Generators: The generators provide power for the machine when it is not connected
to the electrical grid. They are typically diesel generators, but gas generators can also
be used.

The Bielloni flexo printing machine is a versatile and efficient printing press that is used for a
wide variety of applications. It is a reliable and durable machine that is easy to use. The
electrical machines in the Bielloni flexo printing machine provide the power that is needed to
run the machine and ensure that it operates efficiently.

Figure 7: Motors in Bielloni Flexo

Printing Machine

Electrical machines in Bielloni flexo printing machine:

• The motors are typically AC motors, which means that they require an alternating
current power supply. The voltage and frequency of the power supply must match the
requirements of the motors.
• The generators are typically diesel generators, which means that they use diesel fuel to
generate electricity. The generators must be sized to provide enough power to run the
machine at its full capacity.
• The electrical control system in the Bielloni flexo printing machine is responsible for
controlling the operation of the machine. It receives input from the operator and sends
output signals to the motors and generators. The electrical control system must be
properly configured to ensure that the machine operates safely and efficiently.

Conclusion
In the realm of Electrical Actuator engineering, ethical and professional responsibilities play a
vital role alongside the broader global, economic, environmental, and societal impacts.
Engineers have an obligation to ensure their creations are ethically sound and aligned with
professional standards.

The impact of Electrical Actuator engineering solutions reverberates beyond technical

achievements and extends to global, economic, environmental, and societal domains. It is
imperative to view these solutions as interconnected components of a complex ecosystem,
where their effects transcend borders and disciplines.

1. Global Impact:
Electrical Actuator engineering solutions transcend geographical limits, fostering
worldwide connectivity that facilitates remote device control and monitoring across
continents. Nevertheless, this connectivity gives rise to inquiries about data
sovereignty, cybersecurity, and the risk of overreliance on technology. Engineers
should engage in cross-border cooperation to create solutions that honor cultural
diversity and legal structures, guaranteeing fair advantages for every region.

2. Economic Impact:
Innovative Electrical Actuator solutions entering the scene have the potential to
unsettle established industries, causing transformations in labor markets and economic
frameworks. Although these changes can enhance efficiency and progress, they might
also contribute to job loss and unequal distribution. Engineers should collaborate with
economists, policymakers, and stakeholders to foresee these effects and develop
approaches that alleviate drawbacks while promoting lasting economic progress.

3. Environmental Impact:
In their role as stewards of the Earth, engineers carry the duty to reduce the ecological
impact of their innovations. Electrical Actuator engineering solutions possess the
capacity to significantly enhance energy efficiency, diminish waste production, and
facilitate resource optimization. Through the adoption of sustainable design principles
and a holistic approach to their solutions' life cycles, engineers have the ability to
actively foster a more environmentally friendly and harmonious future.

4. Social Impact:
The social effects of Electrical Actuator engineering solutions are extensive and
diverse. Automation and intelligent systems offer the possibility of improving sectors
such as healthcare, transportation, and manufacturing, among others. Yet, these
advancements can also spark worries related to unemployment, privacy infringement,
and the diminishing role of human decision-making. Engineers must actively
communicate with a wide range of stakeholders to tackle these apprehensions,
guaranteeing that their solutions harmonize with societal principles and ambitions.
