Abstract

A gravure engraving system that capable of successively engraving each of a plurality of gravure cylinders through no intermediary of a manual operation, includes a transport device for transporting a gravure cylinder. The transport device is disposed between an engraving machine for engraving the circumferential surface of a gravure cylinder and a stock device which stores a plurality of gravure cylinders. A predetermined gravure cylinder is selected out of the gravure cylinders stored in the stock device and transported to the engraving machine by the transport device. After the transported gravure cylinder has been automatically set on the engraving machine, the gravure cylinder is engraved. Thereafter, the transport device transports the engraved gravure cylinder to the stock device where the engraved gravure cylinder is stored.
