Smart Automation for Shorter Makeready

Elimination of Makeready Steps

Standard features on the 57˝ Speedmaster XL VLF 145 and 64˝ VLF 162 include:
• A single-suction belt feeder that is a zero-makeready element – air settings are preset automatically and no rollers or hold down elements need to be set.
• The proven ink fountain liner that enables fast, clean ink changes as the operator doesn’t have to wipe down each fountain with a rag.
· Fully automatic plate changing – on a straight press, all plates are changed in less than 2.5 minutes
• Convenient coating plate changes – designed to be completed by one operator in less than 2.5 minutes
• In addition, extensive presetting of all ink, air, format and dryer settings via the high-performance Prinect Press Center dramatically speeds makeready on first-time and repeat jobs alike.
• The innovative, process-oriented Intellistart navigation system streamlines and standardizes makeready procedures from operator to operator and shift to shift, significantly boosting Speedmaster productivity.
