The cost pressure in commercial printing is enormous. Skilled workers are difficult to find and retain. The new Peak Performance generation Speedmaster XL 106 leverages the potential of your industrial production environment. Our Push to Stop philosophy enables you to achieve largely operator-independent performance. Discover the efficient way of printing in order to succeed in a demanding market.
CutStar combines the benefits of cost-effective roll-fed stock and productivity of up 21,000 sheets per hour. Boost productivity further: with optional fully automatic reelstand, downtimes and waste for reel changes are also eliminated.
The direct drive at the feeder allows significantly shorter braking curves. With CutStar, the machine also gets up to speed and back to zero more quickly. This means the high speed can be exploited for smaller print runs too.
Higher ouput does not have to mean higher powder contamination. The new PowderStar XL counteracts this with up to 15 percent less powder consumption and up to 45 percent less machine and environmental soiling.
The direct-drive suction belt modules ensure that each sheet is taken over at almost maximum sheet speed and decelerated individually.
Higher mechanical loads require offerings that increase the availability of the machine. This is supported by more robust components and technical features such as the automatic bearer ring maintenance system and high-volume cam rollers. Preventive maintenance programs and services avoid unplanned downtime.
Sample configuration:
The printing machine shown is a sample configuration. Some of the equipment features presented are optional.
The program-controlled blanket washup devices for blanket and impression cylinders combine outstanding washing results with extremely short washing times. The Wash Assistant automatically selects the optimum washup program for the inking unit, blanket and impression cylinders based on the degree of soiling.
The modern 24-inch multi-touchscreen with intuitive controls allows you to monitor important presets and current production data. The Prinect Press Center XL 4 also connects the Speedmaster XL 106 with the Prinect Workflow. The open interfaces allow the easy integration and use of third-party software at any time.
Press Center Mobile and production screen
The flexible Press Center Mobile web application informs you in real time about the status of connected printing machines. It visualizes important production and process data as a basis for optimized processes – either on the mobile device or on the Speedmaster XL 106 production screen.
The PowderStar XL, supportedby the Powder Assistant, enables zonal powder application and reduces powder consumption by up to 15 percent. In addition, the Powder Shutter ensures that excess powder does not get into the machine or the environment.
The CleanStar sustainably reduces soiling of the machine and the environment by extracting excess powder.
The waste ejection system in the delivery automatically rejects faulty sheets during the production run –and only the relevant sheets, precisely according to quality specifications.
The precise inline sheet inspection system checks each sheet on both sides for material defects, hickeys, ink splashes, scumming, etc.,before any downstream costs are incurred. It does this using two high-resolution color cameras before the perfecting device, after the last printing unit or in the coating unit fo roptimum quality assurance on both sides.
The Hycolor XL inking/dampening unit ensures consistently high print quality with minimal waste, even on challenging jobs, thanks to intelligent ink distribution and an improved Vario system. The first good sheet is achieved quickly, which increases efficiency and performance.
The new coating unit ensures high quality through simple operation and short set-up times. Anilox rollers with larger diameter and less weight are designed for maximum printing speeds
Coating, anilox roller and coating plate changes can be performed with various levels of automation, including semi-/fully automatic coating plate changes with AutoPlate Coating/Pro, fully automatic anilox roller changes with Autoloader and automatic coating changes in the Coating Center.
In Push to Stop mode, the coating unit enables parallel changeovers without manual intervention at the same time as other set-up processes and automatic cleaning functions.
The non-stop pile changing in the delivery ensures uninterrupted production of long runs, even at high speeds. This leads to considerable time savings and minimizes waste.
LED dryer systems allow direct finishing of the immediately dry sheet – a major advantage, especially for short runs and fast turnarounds.
The dampening unit with Hycolor Pro offers transparency for dampening unit adjustmentand, thanks to motorized remote adjustment,allows quick reactions during ongoing production.
The components of the future-proof sheet feeder were designed with up to 40 percent increased fatigue strength. Service calls can be carried out in half the time thanks to the modular design. More productive time with adjustment-free pull lay and direct-drive feeder.
Technical data can vary according to job, consumables, printing stock and, possible, other factors.
