At drupa 2008, Heidelberger Druckmaschinen AG (Heidelberg) will be
unveiling the new Dymatrix 145 CSB (cutting, stripping, and
blanking) die cutter. This machine processes sheets up to a maximum
format of 106 × 145 centimeters (41.73 x 57.09 inches) and is
perfectly coordinated with the new Speedmaster XL 145. A non-stop
high-performance sheet feeder ensures reliable end-to-end sheet
transport via the belt table to the register. The feeder is easy to
operate, even on the fly. Straightforward job and die-tool changes
ensure short makeready times, thereby maximizing productivity and
minimizing downtimes. The Dymatrix 145 CSB operates at speeds of up
to 8,000 sheets per hour and can process materials thicknesses of
80 grams per square meter to 2,000 grams per square meter and
corrugated board up to four millimeters (0.16 inch) thick. It can
also be integrated seamlessly into the Prinect workflow, making it
ideal for packaging print shops.
Tried-and-tested technology now also available for the 145 mm
format
The Dymatrix 145 CSB uses tried-and-tested technology, such
as the patented register system, moving upper platen, and
electronically controlled sheet brake. The moving upper platen
principle ensures that material travels extremely smoothly through
the machine.
As a result, even thin materials and small elements can be
die cut with precision, creating added value and resulting in
enhanced differentiation in folding carton production.
The servo drives for belt table, suction head, and main and
auxiliary piles ensure optimum control of sheet travel and reliable
sheet separation. A motor is used to adjust the feeder to the sheet
format, thereby cutting makeready times. In the die cutting
station, the chase and cutting plate are locked and unlocked fully
automatically for job changes and automatically removed from the
machine for tool changes.
The operator can perform die changes more quickly and
reliably with the optional hydraulic chase. This results in
straightforward handling and simplified setup during job changes,
and high precision during positioning.
The non-stop delivery of the Dymatrix 145 includes fully
automatic pallet changing. Empty pallets are automatically placed
in a pallet station underneath the operating platform, while
finished pallets are transported out of the die cutter.
