The diagram represents the process of lithography. This method used for printing newspapers. After the image is moved onto a press plate, It goes through several rollers prior to being successfully printed onto paper.
There are three main rollers: first, a plate cylinder which holds a thin flexible printing plate, the image to be printed is transferred onto a thin metal plate which is then dampened by water and ink via rollers on the printing press. The second one is a blanket cylinder, which holds a rubber blanket, the ink sticks swift to the image on the plate and water adheres to any part of the plate that has no image. Third, an impression cylinder that carries the paper sheet. The perfecting press system prints on both sides of a sheet of paper in a single process. At last, the printed paper is dried with hot and cold air and put on the delivery box.
All in all, The model exhibit various part of lithography printing which includes: damping system, water-based solution, the inking system, impression cylinder and finally delivery pile.
