Governor Foot Mechanism Optimum Design on High-Speed Printing Press

This paper proposes a method for the design of governor foot mechanism on high-speed printing press. According to the technological conditions, an optimal design model is presented to achieve the minimum deviation between the desired and actual track points. The physical dimensions of the linkages and the angular stroke of the driven cam can be gained by solving the presented optimum model. Then the driven cam's profile is calculated. The effectiveness of the proposed method is proved through an illustrative design example of a governor foot mechanism for high-speed operation
