Abstract

Cloth feed control unit of a cleaning device for printing machine cylinders. Provided is a position sensor (30), which generates signals linearly in proportion to the radial variations in the distance of the peripheral surface of a cleaning roller (8, 10) from the position sensor (30). The signals can be used to calculate the length of a cleaning cloth that is on a cloth roller and/or to control the cloth feed. The cloth feed control is carried out preferably in combination with signals of an encoder (44), which detects the rotation-increments of a cloth roller.
