An Exciting Flexo Press Upgrade

An exciting flexo press upgrade is the Servo 3000 Digital Infeed + Re-register system made by Rotary Technologies. For a fraction of the cost of a new press, a printer can add the Servo 3000. This digital product allows the printer to re-register the web so that he can print in 8, 12, or 16 colors instead of just 4. The Servo 3000 press upgrade will reliably result in less wasted paper on each printing job. The Servo 3000 makes an older flexo press act like new.

 In printing labels, flexible packaging, on plastic or metal films, and on paper the Servo 3000 benefits the printer on first pass printing. The Servo 3000 is 100% digital and servo driven. Users can experience better color registration on first pass printing.

 It is with multiple passes and better web tension that the Servo 3000 can make an older press work like new. The Servo 3000 will re-register the web allowing for multiple passes. Other improvements offered by the Servo 3000 come from eliminating the infeed gear train and the existing infeed/pacing cylinder. Elimination of worn mechanical gears and gear boxes leads to more precise tracking and elimination of backlash.

 An additional benefit of the Servo 3000 Digital Infeed + Re-register system is that it may be used just for re-registering the web on second pass printing for offline applications or when you receive rolls of pre-printed product supplied from resources other than your own. In either case, the Servo 3000 will perform as if the pre-printed rolls were produced on the same press.

 With new presses costing from $500,000 to $1,000,000 the addition of a Servo 3000 system to an existing press for a fraction of the cost makes sense for the cost conscious flexo printer. Rotary Technologies offers an excellent, single fix to many of the problems bedeviling an older flexo printer.

Making a Used Flexo Press Work like a New Flexo Press

With the addition of the Servo 3000 Digital Infeed + Re-register system made by Rotary Technologies a printer can greatly enhance press performance. In many ways an old press will work like new and for a fraction of the cost of a new press. With the Servo 3000 the printer can re-register the web. He can print additional passes instead of one. That means unlimited colors. The Servo 3000 press upgrade reliably results in less wasted material on each printing job. In many ways the Servo 3000 simply makes an older flexo press act like new.

 Here is an example of what we are talking about. All parts of a press are geared together, start together, stop together, and change speed together. Right? Then why should the press experience any material waste aside from the initial setup? It is because the web is not always doing what the press is doing!

 There can be waste of material during make-ready. There can be running waste because of floating registration. There can be hundreds of feet of wasted material used up with starts and stops to regain registration after stoppage or web splices. These problems are all attributable to web tension. The old saying is that if you take care of the pennies the dollars take care of themselves. Taking care of web tension issues saves material and money on every run, sometimes several times a run. Taking care of web tension issues with the Servo 3000 turns those regained pennies into dollars in your pocket with the revolutionary Servo 3000.

 Another example is the flexibility, as well as reliability, that use of the Servo 3000 allows. Because the Servo 3000 uses digital material settings repeatability is simple. Because of the light tension settings of the Servo 3000 an older standard label press can run thin, filmic materials, increasing its usability and flexibility.

 How Does the Servo 3000 Do This?

 The Servo 3000 Digital Infeed + Re-register system uses a proprietary algorithm to precisely meter materials into the press, taking into account the elastic properties of the web. The Servo 3000 maintains web tension by forcing the web to do exactly when the press does in its timing and speed as well as acceleration and deceleration. This is where basic tension systems fail. They are not dynamic enough to precisely match real running conditions of the press.

 Adding the advanced Servo 3000 to an old press filters web properties and breaks a single press revolution into millions of parts. The Servo 3000 meters the web, following individual parts with digital accuracy. Adding the Servo 3000 to an older press can make the press perform like new and even better. With the revolutionary Servo 3000 Digital Infeed + Re-register system the web never loses sight of what the press is doing, during each and every tiny fraction of a press revolution.

Hacer la vida más fácil para su operador de prensa Flexo

La actualización de prensa Flexo muy fácil adjuntar, el Servo 3000, puede facilitar la vida de su operador de prensa Flexo. Lo puede hacer su prensa Flexo más rentables también. Por ejemplo, tiene un trabajo imprimir etiquetas multicapas para un producto farmacéutico. Con el Servo 3000 Infeed + Re-register System, Series II adjuntado a su prensa Flexo el trabajo es mas fácil y mas rápido. Su operador de prensa Flexo puede acabar el trabajo en menos tiempo y con menos desperdicio.

 Prensa Flexo sin el Servo 3000

Utilizando una prensa estándar para este procedimiento, reduce el número de colores que se puede imprimir. Seis u ocho estaciones de impresión van a dividir entre paneles impresos. Eso significa menos colores para cada panel.

Una prensa con el Servo 3000

El 3000 servo automatiza este trabajo. Debido a que la capa superior es preimpresa todas las estaciones de impresión pueden aplicarse para el siguiente panel. También permite el operador laminado la capa preimpreso en regístrese para la capa base.

El Servo 3000 actualiza prensa Flexo para que el operador sólo necesite registrar una web en un momento como el Servo 3000 realiza la parte compleja. Esto reduce desperdicio de empezar y ejecución incluso a velocidades altas de prensa. A pesar de que el operador dedicará una tirada hasta la impresión de la capa superior las velocidades mucho más elevadas de la prensa sobre las capas posteriores son tales que normalmente se reducirá el tiempo de impresión general. En general los residuos sin duda serán.

Como organizar para etiquetas multicapas con el Servo 3000

Primero, imprima la capa superior. Porque no se necesita cortar molde o quitar en este paso es secado el único factor que limita la velocidad de la prensa. Debido a la capacidad del Servo 3000 para volver a registrar con precisión la web la primera capa incluso puede imprimirse en prensa de otro.

Segundo prepara la capa base. Poner el rollo de la capa superior en una torre de laminación y “web” a través del Servo 3000. Las dos capas pueden ponerse juntos mediante una clara laminado o adhesivo de impresión en la capa base. El punto de “nip” donde se juntan las dos webs puede juntar a la mitad del web, o puede utilizarse una estación de molde.

Ajustar la capa superior a estar en el registro con la capa base utilizando el Servo 3000. Cuando esto está configurado, el Servo 3000 automáticamente y precisamente mantiene esa posición. A continuación, corta molde y quitar como normal.

Ventajas adicionales

Otros tipos de equipo que se utiliza para facilitar la impresión de etiquetas multicapas normalmente se utilizan sólo para el proceso y no se usa el resto del tiempo. El Servo 3000 mejora el rendimiento de la prensa en todos los puestos de trabajo, reduce los residuos, permite la impresión de películas extremadamente delgadas (debido a su control de tensión precisa de web) y puede utilizarse para puestos de trabajo como acabado etiquetas impresas en una prensa digital.

A Unique Way to Improve Your Digital Printing Profit Margin

Digital printing is an excellent means of printing short runs of virtually any type of press job. The nature of a digital printing is that it does not have an extended or expensive setup cost. A digital press is very flexible and can, in fact, change text or design in mid run. For jobs that require a lot of different content on a label of the same size and shape, a digital press cannot be beaten. As in all printing the printer needs to be concerned about his profit margin. Any new equipment can be expensive and that is true of a digital press. A unique feature of buying a digital press is that the printer needs to find a finishing solution. Digital presses do not laminate, die cut, or strip their work. A printer who purchases a digital press and a stand alone finishing machine will need to find and accomplish enough profitable work to pay for both machines. A printer who already has a standard flexographic press has another solution available that will commonly help his digital printing profit margin. This solution is the Servo 3000 Digital Infeed + Re-register™ system made by Rotary Technologies. What follows is brief list of reasons why using a Servo 3000 upgraded flexographic press for doing digital press finishing may well improve the profit margin of the digital press.

 Paying Less for Equipment

 The cost of adding Servo 3000 to a standard flexographic press is comparable to the low end of costs for a stand alone finishing machine. A printer can add the Servo 3000 to a standard press and obtain servo functioning for a mere fraction of the cost of a new, high end servo press.

 Having a Machine That Goes Back to Its Regular Job When Not Doing Finishing Work for a Digital Press

 A greater cost savings in using an upgraded standard flexographic press for digital press finishing is that when the flexo press is not doing finishing work for a digital press it goes back to its usual work and is making money instead of just adding to overhead.

 Being Able to Take on More Profitable Work like Printing Extended Content Labels

 Digital printing is an ideal solution for printing extended content labels, especially if the text or design needed to be changed several times during the print run. The problem for a digital press taking on this kind of work is that a stand alone finishing machine is not designed to, and not able to, precisely finish multilayer labels. Because of the precise re-registration that the Servo 3000 affords a standard flexographic press the unit can re-register the work of a digital press. Then it can hold both the first layer and subsequent layers in the degree of registration necessary for precise finishing work. It should be noted that using a Servo 3000 press add on with a standard flexo press allows the operator to much more easily and precisely print and finish extended content labels, all on a flexo press. For a Servo 3000 assisted press the job of finishing work from a digital is just part of what it can do.

 Deriving More Profit from the Upgraded Flexographic Press as Well

 We noted above that when a flexo press upgraded with the Servo 3000 is not doing finishing work it is back at its other work. However, if the printer upgrades a standard flexographic press with the Servo 3000 he can take on more profitable work such as printing flexible printed circuits. The end result of using the Servo 3000 as a finishing solution could just be to improve the profit margin on the flexo press as well.

 The bottom line is that the printer looking to use a digital press to do short runs of labels and other jobs will be able to improve his profit margin by upgrading a standard flexographic press with the Servo 3000 Digital Infeed + Re-register™ system made by Rotary Technologies. This solution will cost the same or less as a “stand alone” machine. It will allow the digital printer to take on more profitable work and it will allow the printer to reduce substrate loss, take on more profitable flexo jobs, and, typically, speed up print runs to boot.

Bring Your Flexo Press into Register in One Press Length

Using the easily attached Servo 3000 Flexo press upgrade can substantially reduce waste in Flexo printing as a standard press upgraded with the Servo 3000 will come into register in one press length. This is the absolute minimum for any press.

 The Problem of Material Waste in a Standard Flexo Press

 As a standard Flexo press starts up, material in the press can be stretched at one point and allowed to bunch up in another. It is only as the press gathers speed that web tension evens out throughout the press. Color “pull out” is a common occurrence as the press gains speed. This phenomenon provides proof of the varying tensions within the press as speed picks up.

 With color “pull out” the colors appear to wander about the web. The blues may migrate north and the reds may head south. Although the yellows may stay put the blacks might just go east! The blurring of an image obviously destroys the worth of the print job until the press gains speed and all of the colors come home “to roost.” Of course, all of the material that passes through the press on the way to full speed, and even web tension, is wasted. With a standard press this happens every time the press has to be stopped and then started again. When your pressman changes a roll, removes waste matrix, or a material spice moves through the press a standard press has to be restarted and another run of waste materials occurs. Everything over press length is wasted unnecessarily.

 The Solution to Excessive Material Waste on a Flexo Press

 The servo infeed system of the Servo 3000 Digital Infeed + Re-register™ system makes the infeed follow the press and not the other way around. Thus the infeed starts out being paced correctly and remains that way. Using the Servo 3000 bypasses the infeed gear train as well as the existing infeed/pacing cylinder. Bypassing used and worn mechanical gears and gear boxes with the Servo 3000 eliminates backlash and gives the press much more precise tracking. With the Servo 3000 a press prints at .0025” resolution even at full press speeds.

 Using the Servo 3000 system will get a Flexo press into register in one press length greatly reducing material waste on each start up. Because the Servo 3000 maintains a high press resolution throughout the press run and allows the roll to run down to the core it may also reduce the frequency of stopping and starting the press. Rotary Technologies who make the Servo 3000 even have a savings calculator on their web site to help those interested in upgrading performance of their Flexo press calculate potential material cost savings with the easily attached Flexo press add on.

 More Benefits of the Servo 3000

 This discussion only has to do with bringing a press in register as fast as possible. It does not address the many other benefits of using the Servo 3000 to allow a press to print on a wider variety of substrates nor do such difficult jobs as printing multi layer labels or finishing multi layer labels from a digital press.

Calculate Flexo Press Savings Provided by the Servo 3000

Removing inefficiencies from flexo press operations can save on the cost of material waste and the cost of labor in adjusting, fixing, and re-doing print jobs. A flexo press has an overhead cost related to its operation and that overhead continues whether the press is running efficiently or not. Getting the most out of your flexo press will increase profits while overhead remains static.

 What kind of press savings are we talking about?

 A flexographic press equipped with the Servo 3000 add-on comes into register in one press length of material. This is the absolute minimum for any press. A standard flexo press not equipped with the re-register and servo infeed system offered by the Servo 3000 typically experiences substantially more material waste than a Servo 3000 equipped press.

 Bringing the flexo press into register in one press length is only one way that the Servo 3000 saves money. Color “pull out” is a common occurrence as a press comes up to speed. With varying web tension the material will stretch or bunch up and colors will seem to wander about the web until the press reaches its speed and slowly regains registration. All of this can take substantially more than one press length! Every time a roll is changed, waste matrix removed, or a material splice moves through a standard press will need to restart and the same “pull out” issue occurs wasting substrate.

 The excellent web tension maintained by the Servo 3000 allows a flexo press to run the roll down to the core. In addition the Servo 3000 saves in make ready time and material. This discussion only has to do with calculating press savings. It does not address the many other benefits of using the Servo 3000 to allow a press to print on a wider variety of substrates nor do such difficult jobs as printing or multi layer labels or finishing the same from a digital press.

 What will you need to do to calculate savings?

 An expanded version of this discussion can be found on the Rotary Technologies web site along with a savings calculator to make the job easy. The information and calculator are in both English and Spanish. You will enter your own company data into the calculator. Much of this you will know and some will require that you observe press operation and take measurements.

 How much material is in the press from the first print unit?

 To determine this with the press stopped, flag the roll at the production rewind and mark the web with a marker at the first print unit. Run the press until the mark is at the rewind. Remove the material by hand between the mark and the flag. Measure the material using a tape measure.

 How much material is wasted to get the press into register after a restart?

To determine this with the press stopped, flag the roll at the product rewind. Run the press until it is back in register and flag the product rewind a second time. Remove the material between the flags by hand and measure with a tape measure.

El secreto para imprimir etiquetas de contenido extendidas con una prensa digital

El secreto para imprimir etiquetas de contenido extendidas con una imprenta digital consiste en utilizar una prensa flexográfica actualizada por un mecanismo servo. Específicamente, el truco es agregar el Servo 3000 fácilmente agregada adjunta para una prensa flexo. A pesar de que hay un número de máquinas disponibles para terminar trabajo realizado en una prensa digital, ninguno de ellos es capaz del re-registro preciso de la Web que es necesario para terminar trabajo para etiquetas de contenido extendidas hechas en una prensa digital.

 Impresión de prensa digital es una solución rápida y eficiente para muchos puestos de trabajo de impresión. Por el conjunto de menor costo y tiempo para una prensa digital, esta solución es ideal para tiradas cortas de cualquier trabajo de impresión, incluyendo las etiquetas. Una prensa digital puede ser, de hecho, la solución ideal para imprimir etiquetas de contenido extendidas. La razón radica en sólo por qué un producto tiene una etiqueta de contenido extendida en primer lugar. Etiquetas de contenido ampliadas se utilizan en productos farmacéuticos, herbicidas, pesticidas y otros productos que requieren instrucciones específicas o precauciones.

 Debido a que muchos de estos productos están sujetos a reglamentaciones gubernamentales el etiquetado específico o el lenguaje a menudo requieren de varias versiones. La facilidad de cambiar el mensaje de la impresión digital hace la prensa digital, la mejor solución cuando etiquetas que deba ser impreso en alemán, castellano, francés, inglés americano, inglés británico, español latinoamericano y portugués, así como los chinos han y japonés. Bien, usted obtiene la imagen. Ahora tenemos muchos grupos de etiquetas, impresas a montarse en capas y listo para el acabado. Pueden necesitar adhesivo aplicado y necesitarán laminado. Tendrán que terminado en todos aspectos.

 Aquí es donde el Servo 3000 Digital Infeed + Re-register sistema hecho por Rotary Technologies ya viene. Una prensa flexográfica estándar equipada con el Servo 3000, de hecho, permite imprimir etiquetas de contenido extendidas. Para tiradas largas suele ser una opción mejor que una prensa digital. Para tiradas cortas la prensa digital suele ser la mejor opción. A continuación, incluso cuando el texto sobre los cambios de las etiquetas del portugués en chino, el Servo 3000 asistida prensa puede utilizarse para terminar el trabajo. Para imprimir etiquetas multicapas y les acabado el problema es el mismo, obtener y mantener el registro de la Web precisa.       

La prensa equipada con el Servo vuelve a registrar la Web de las etiquetas producida por la prensa digital. A continuación, el operador necesita ejecutar dos capas juntas y registrar ambos webs juntos con el fin de terminar con precisión. El Servo 3000 automatiza este trabajo duro. Porque el Servo 3000 puede registrarse en la Web de la prensa digital automáticamente la primera capa es laminada en regístrese para la capa base. Por lo tanto el operador sólo necesita registrar una Web en un momento mientras el Servo 3000 realiza la tarea compleja. Utilizando una prensa equipado con la actualización de Servo 3000 que una impresora puede utilizar esta máquina para el acabado etiquetas multicapas impresas en una imprenta digital. A diferencia de un “independiente” solución de acabar una prensa de flexo puede volver a su trabajo original entre terminar tiradas de una imprenta digital. A diferencia de cualquiera de las máquinas “únicas” de terminar una prensa flexográfica equipada con el Servo 3000 precisamente puede terminar de etiquetas de contenido ampliadas así. Es el “secreto” de impresión de etiquetas de contenido extendidas en una imprenta digital.

El Servo 3000 no sólo permite una prensa flexográfica estándar para que actúe en su capacidad de “secreto” como un dispositivo de acabado de prensa digital que se extendió de etiquetas de contenido. Permitirá una prensa estándar ejecutar la segunda tirada en resolución de 0.0025 pulgadas a velocidad de prensa completo. La precisión extrema ofrecida por un el Servo 3000 asistida prensa permite una impresora para corregir los errores de diseño tales como códigos de barras inexactos y no botar toda una ejecución de sustrato. Permite que la impresora para hacer trabajos más sofisticados, como impresión de circuitos electrónicos flexibles así. Los beneficios de usar el Servo 3000 incluyen sustancialmente reducido residuos de materiales y la capacidad para una prensa doblar o triplicar su capacidad de color.

Print More Colors with Your Flexo Press Using the Servo 3000

An easily added upgrade to a Flexo press, the Servo 3000, will allow the press to print more colors than you can now. Taking advantage of the precise re-registration available with the Servo 3000 a Flexo press can print double, triple, and even four times the number of colors it does normally. The Servo 3000 Digital Infeed + Re-register system made by Rotary Technologies precisely re-registers the web after first pass printing. It allows a press to take work done on the same, or other presses, and print subsequent passes, with different sets of colors at the print stations. The precise servo mechanism gives the press 0.0025” resolution at full press speed, printing each run of colors with this incredible precision.

 The Servo 3000 Digital Infeed + Re-register system has a specially coated, servo driven pacing roller. It feeds material into the Flexo press while gripper wheels act as a nip. This combination provides positive traction and prevents any slippage. The servo mechanism receives and acts on an encoder signal from the press. Therefore it precisely follows the press at its high level of resolution.

 The Servo 3000 extends the flexibility of your Flexo press and more. The Servo 3000 will typically improve registration on first pass printing and reduce material waste throughout the printing process. Because of its very precise web tension control the Servo 3000 allows a press to print on very thin films as well.

 The precise re-registration provided by the Servo 3000 allows a Flexo press to be used to print multi layer labels, to do digital print finishing, and to re-register as well as taking material from another press for additions or corrections.

 New high end presses can cost up to $1,000,000. For a mere fraction of this cost you can add the easily attached and portable Servo 3000 system to an existing Flexo press. Add the Servo 3000 and your press will print more colors, do a wider range of work, experience less material waste, and do it all for less.

Reducción de desechos de material para impresión flexografía en BOPP con el Servo 3000

Un factor importante en la rentabilidad que se ejecuta una prensa flexográfica es mantener la cantidad de material desechos al mínimo. Un excelente medio de reducir los desechos en una imprenta de flexo estándar, especialmente cuando se imprime sobre sustratos caros, es utilizar un mecanismo servo y sistema para re-registración de la Web como la Servo 3000 Digital Infeed + Re-register sistema hecho por Rotary Technologies.

 Un sistema ideal, tales como el fácilmente acoplado Servo 3000 traerá el trabajo de impresión en el registro de una longitud de la prensa, el mínimo absoluto de cualquier prensa. Con cada parada y el inicio de la prensa el Servo 3000 guarda sustrato y ahorra dinero. Al imprimir en sustrato caro como BOPP (bi-axial orientada polipropileno) películas el Servo 3000 mantendrá el trabajo en registro a pesar de la dilatación y reducción normal que lleva a cabo cuando se imprime en películas. Utilizando el Servo 3000 el trabajo requerirá menos paradas para ajustes así. Suma total residuos de material guardado podrían llegar a tanto como un cuarto de todo el material en un rollo.

 BOPP

 Películas de BOPP están diseñadas para envases flexibles y etiquetas. Este producto de polipropileno es inerte y por lo tanto, no afectados por agentes químicos más comunes. Películas de BOPP son no tóxicas y pueden ser reciclados. Estas características junto con alta resistencia a la tracción, la claridad y la resistencia al pasaje de agua hacen popular. Para la impresora flexo, un factor importante es de las películas de BOPP es que se puede imprimir fácilmente en este sustrato. También pueden ser tratados para hacerlos más con mejores barreras y uso de acrílico y recubrimientos PVDC. En definitiva, se trata de un gran material de envasado y etiquetas. Sin embargo, también es un poco caro.

 Una búsqueda reciente de Internet para los precios de lista para la película de BOPP muestra que blanco de 2,6 mil BOPP TC está vendiendo la 0.400 por MSI. Un rollo seis y un cuarto pulgadas por 7.800 pies 7.800 se vende por $234 además de envío e impuestos. Por el bien de los siguientes cálculos para imprimir sólo tendremos en cuenta el costo de material de $234 un rollo.

 Ejemplo de ahorro

 Asumiendo que la longitud del material en una prensa de doce de colores es de 200 pies. Además el inicio inicial que se detendrá de dos veces a la prensa para rebobinar y quitar imprime material. Se detendrá dos veces para los ajustes. Asumiendo que las etiquetas se están realizando, dos paradas será necesarios además de eliminar residuos matrices. Esto vendrá a 1 + 2 + 2 + 2 = 7 inicia de la prensa.

 Asumiremos que tarda dos longitudes de la prensa para obtener de la Web en registro con cada inicio. Esto asciende a 400 pies de material de desecho con cada uno de los siete comienza de prensa o 2.800 pies de un rollo de 7.800 de pie. Eso equivale a una pérdida material 35,9% o $84 en un rollo de $234 de BOPP.

 En comparación el Servo 3000 adición a una prensa de flexo estándar traerá a la prensa en registrar en la longitud de una prensa, o 200 pies en este ejemplo. En primer lugar vamos a suponer el mismo número de prensa inicia, 7. Los residuos de materiales será 7 comienza x 200 pies = 1,400 pies. Se trata de 18% o $42 un rollo de BOPP. Ahora consideremos que el servo a la entrada en el Servo 3000 sigue muy precisamente la prensa con 0.0025 “resolución a velocidad de prensa completo. Normalmente, esto significa menos o no razones para detener a la prensa. Que el caso sacamos dos paradas de prensa para los ajustes de la ecuación y tenemos 1 + 2 + 2 = 5 prensa detiene resultando en 200 pies de residuos por parada. Esto sale a 1000 pies de residuos o 12,82% el rollo a un costo de $30.

 Esta es la diferencia entre el uso de una prensa estándar para ejecutar esta tarea y utilizando una prensa de Servo 3000 asistida. Utilizando el Servo 3000 reduce los residuos del sustrato por parada y reduce el número de veces que el operador tiene que detener la prensa. En este ejemplo, vemos un ahorro de $84-$30 = $54 en un rollo de $234 de sustrato de BOPP, justo por debajo de una cuarta parte del costo del rollo.
