It can print up to 15,000 sheets per hour on stock thicknesses of up to 0.6mm as standard. Its JDF compatibility is an important issue for us, as we only have a team of five staff. The press is configured to print alcohol-free using vegetable-based inks. We also have fully automatic plate changing; IVS ink-volume setter software, which takes ink profile data from the digital front-end; PDS print density control; program inking; plate register remote control; and automated wash-ups. We specified the machine with an inline coater, and we will use the fifth printing unit to add a sealer on jobs that do not require a specific, decorative coating.
