Abstract

The most uniform possible temperature variation along the circumference of a transfer cylinder in a rotary printing machine is achieved by arranging a highly thermally layer made of a material having a thermal conductivity significantly higher than steel under a rubber blanket on the transfer cylinder for distributing heat from the rubber blanket along the direction of the surface of the transfer cylinder. The highly conductive layer is arranged on a support of the rubber blanket.
