1. High Speed Stability
Offering a sheet thickness range of 0.06–1.0 mm, this press provides very stable operation at the 18,000 sph maximum printing speed thanks to new sheet feeding performance.
2. Automatic Washing/Cleaning
The new automatic ink roller washing system significantly improves colour changing, which is a bottleneck in printing with special colours.
3. Automatic nonstop operation
Equipped with a new fully automatic nonstop operation system, printing of long runs at the maximum printing speed is enabled through linkage with an optional stock transport logistics system.
4. PDF comparator system
A PDF comparator system that uses sensors to read the printed image for comparison with the originating PDF file data has been developed and may be specified with PDC-SX. This allows the operator to check for missing or added characters in the initial printing stage, preventing production losses.
GX-40 RP for dedicated double-sided offset printing
Designed to deliver high quality, short turnaround, high speed, stability and reduced waste in double-sided printing. A new system features single-edge gripping and eliminates sheet reversal. Single-edge gripping makes the margin on the tail edge of the sheets — an unavoidable structural requirement of perfectors — completely unnecessary, enabling paper costs to be cut by minimizing the sheet size. Eliminating sheet reversal ensures stable sheet transport that is capable of handling either light or heavy stocks through the use of four double size transfer cylinders. Front/back plate imaging is in the same direction, just as with single-sided presses, increasing efficiency in prepress.
