ABSTRACT:
A printing press includes a plurality of cylinders, a main drive system, an auxiliary drive system, and a torsion bar. The plurality of cylinders are arranged in parallel to each other in an axial direction and includes a plate cylinder. The main drive system is constituted by a plurality of drive gears that drive the plurality of cylinders by transmitting rotation of a drive unit thereto. The auxiliary drive system is connected to the main drive system and includes at least one drive gear that drives the plate cylinder by transmitting rotation of the main drive system thereto. The torsion bar applies a braking force to the plate cylinder through the auxiliary drive system in a direction opposite to that of rotation of the main drive system.
