Effective Use of Accumulated Printing Information with Database AMPAC

Abstract

As for control information of the printing machine, since the material characteristics, such as paper and ink, greatly influence the printing quality, every status judgment becomes very important. At present, the process of the parts, such as the initial setting before job beginning, is automated, but finally, there is still a part where it relies on operator's know-how. Before the serious engineer shortage in the future, how to accumulate the useful information and know-how, and how to use them will be an important problem. It is the AMPAC that we proposed from the past that can solve these problems. The AMPAC proposes the unique format for describing the single parameter of whole field of design, production and management. We developed the application that presumed best information for the control of the printing machine from accumulated information. We can use accumulated information effectively by using this application. Control information but also trouble information accumulates similarly; it is also possible to correspond to remote maintenance.
