KBA Rapida: 11 Jobs Under 90 Minutes

The Rapida 75 achieved the above output with semi-automatic plate changing. A pile change at the feeder and delivery was necessary for the seven jobs printed on 350 gsm matt art paper. A first pull was taken after 30 sheets in each case to measure and adjust the ink densities with KBA DensiTronic. After 100 sheets, the densities were measured again (without adjustment). The first saleable sheets were in the delivery without stopping the press after around 100 sheets. The measured values remained stable within the tolerances defined by ISO 12647-2 (Process Standard Offset) over the whole run, and the Rapida 75 was printing at 15,000 sph both for makeready and for the actual production.
