  • Hydraulic drives: All linear and rotary drives on the machines are hydraulically powered. The hydraulics are integrated with the PLC controls through a series of relays and proportional valves.
  • Shafted & Sleeve Cylinders: Presses can be constructed for handling shafted cylinders, sleeve cylinders or both.
  • Integrated Cylinder Cleaning: Both shafted and sleeve cylinders are rotated by and integrated hydraulic Motor
  • Automated Pre-Setting: These systems have been developed to assist in achieving standardization/repeatability of proof print quality. By programming the machine to make all the calculations for the various press settings for different sizes of engraved cylinders, the individual press operators” personal interpretation of these required values is eliminated.
  • Electro Static Assist: This system is available to customers proofing on paper who wish to reduce or eliminate the effects of “missing dots” when printing on non-calendered surfaces.
  • Common Features: PLC Control System, EU Safety Compliant
