This high-performance capacity is accompanied by the combination of in-line, real-
time print process monitoring that maintains reliable performance and fast print speeds.
Increase total printing time with optional quick roll changeover. Convert manual roll
splicing to an automatic process with the Zero-Speed Splicer. A fresh paper roll can be queued
and the splice set up while the current roll feeds the press. Ideal for in-line nishing, the Zero-
Speed Splicer reduces downtime required to load and manually splice rolls with a standard
unwinder.
Streamline operations with automated quality control. In-line process controls include
a duplex vision system that checks printhead quality, monitors front-to-back side print
registration, and enables real-time adjustments. The closed-loop tension control system
automatically adjusts the press to constant tension in order to maintain constant print
alignment.
Equip your production environment
with a digital printing solution that
delivers unprecedented versatility and
productivity, enabling oset-class
capability. Scale your mass production
of high-quality, customized campaigns
to whole new levels with 100% variable
