The Digicon series 2
is fully modular so minimising initial investment and allowing
machine capabilities to be expanded to meet end user requirements.
All printing and converting modules come with automated pre-positioning
giving minimum wastage and quick make ready. The servo
driven web tension control is capable of handling a wide range
of substrates; both paper and non-paper. Semi rotary web motion
with dial in repeat lengths and only one cylinder size means
that there are no gears or shafts to change.
The
basics of the machine include unwind/rewind units, electronic
web guide, infeed roller, semi rotary flexographic printing station,
air cooled UV curing, mid press dance roller to allow for combinations
of rotary flexo and semi rotary die cutting, servo driven out-feed
nip roller, waste matrix and HMI touch screen control. This basic
specification can be increased at any given time with the addition
of series 2 modules to provide additional converting options.
Modules available can include interface to link the machine
to a host digital print engine for in-line operation, semi rotary
hot foil stamping and embossing, over laminating, semi rotary
silk screen printing, sheeting, Pharma 100% print inspection,
Corona treater and rotary flexo printing. Unwind/rewind offerings
come in the shape of motorised reel lifting for 700mm (27”)
diameter reels and 1000 mm (40 in.) unwind upgrade with integral
roll lift and web guide.
The company also offers the Digicon FB a flat bed version of
the Digicon Series 2. This is a flat bed design of comparable
specification for converters utilising flat bed systems allowing
tooling to be inter-changed. |
