A printing module of the flexo printing type, is provided with an anilox roller and an impression roller which are set up between two frame parts. Further, the printing module comprises a plate cylinder assembly which is receivable in a plate cylinder holder assembly. The plate cylinder holder assembly is provided with a plate-shaped body part with a supporting ring support surface with a special curve which is symmetrical with respect to a curve plane. Further, each plate cylinder holder assembly comprises a body part support assembly via which the body part is connected with the associated frame part, wherein the body part support assembly is configured for pivoting the body part about a first imaginary pivoting axis and for pivoting the body part about a second imaginary pivoting axis, such as to allow a substantially independent distance setting between the plate cylinder and the anilox roller on one side and between the plate cylinder and the impression roller on the other side.

Examples include a die-cutting unit that includes a device for changing a die-cutting cylinder. The die-cutting unit includes at least one die-cutting cylinder and at least one anvil cylinder. The die-cutting cylinder is arranged in a die-cutting position for die-cutting, and the at least one die-cutting cylinder is exchangeable for at least one other die-cutting cylinder by means of the device for changing the die-cutting cylinder. A shortest straight connecting line between the axis of rotation of the die-cutting cylinder in the die-cutting position and the axis of rotation of the die-cutting cylinder in the move-out position is inclined less than 30 degrees with respect to a horizontal plane. Further, a shortest straight connecting line between the axis of rotation of the die-cutting cylinder in the move-out position and a maintenance position is inclined less than 30 degrees with respect to a vertical direction.

The invention relates to a drive device for an eccentric bearing for radially deflecting a roller mounted therein, the eccentric bearing comprising a bore which is oriented in an axial direction and intended for accommodating a roller journal of a roller, and the eccentric bearing comprising an outer eccentric bushing and an inner eccentric bushing which is partially inserted into the outer eccentric bushing and has the bore, such that the eccentric bushings have an axial overlap region, characterized in that at least one of the eccentric bushings has a free end outside the overlap region, which free end is coupled to a drive unit via which the at least one eccentric bushing is rotatable about the axial direction in order to adjust a radial axial deflection of the bore with respect to the other eccentric bushing. The invention also relates to a corresponding calender.
