Celmacch Corrugated Printing Press Introduction

The current retail market requires higher quality printed images as product packaging. Some carton manufacturers have therefore been looking for opportunities to invest in expensive, high-end printing equipment. High-quality printing presses, with the reliability of their craftsmanship and suitable prices, have become the most important choices.

The opportunity to provide this kind of opportunity for Celmacch, located on the shores of Lake Garda in Italy, is an option. For many years, this family-owned company designed and manufactured high-quality printing equipment. The company’s latest equipment is the Chroma-Print 160 and 205 presses. The two types of printers that use the direct drive bottom printing principle use advanced technology to ensure the accuracy of color registration at high speeds. An "automatic setup" printing parameter adjustment system and a vacuum suction cardboard conveying system are used, which are reliable and operator-friendly.

Cardboard feeding is accomplished through an electronically controlled vacuum conveyor system equipped with a microprocessor. The feed tray passes an electronic cam system. The Rudy XWB160-205 automatic cardboard loading system can also be installed on the press. This system is specifically designed for printing production lines.

A paperboard conveying system that can provide a constant vacuum suction pressure will accurately control the board at various stages of the printing process. Because no contact occurs between the conveyor and the printed surface of the board, the surface of the printed image will not be damaged. Cardboard conveying system with constant vacuum suction pressure can also guarantee full control of the cardboard and consistent drying effect. These performance characteristics are particularly suitable for the printing of coated cardboard.

The printer's ink supply system uses a combination of rubber rollers, ceramic anilox rollers, and "conceptual" squeegees. A rubber roller that can adjust the speed according to the rotation speed of the anilox roller can perform higher ink distribution and delivery. This ink supply system allows fast anilox switching to adjust ink consumption.

The press is fully automatic and controlled by a central computer. The flexibility of the control system on the press means that the machine can be integrated into any production management system in the carton factory and is compatible with the operating systems of other machines for communication. The operator's control panel is installed in each unit of the machine, ensuring that the operator can read and control all the process performance of the press. The control panel consists of a programmable control logic unit with powerful control capabilities. All process performance is controlled by a central system, meaning that one operator can control board production. All printing parameters can be set automatically and all data can be stored for future production calls. Celmacch also provides remote control and analysis equipment that can provide users with better service and maintenance.

The maximum print sizes of the two models are 1600 x 1100 mm and 2050 x 1280 mm. The machines have a maximum printing speed of 9,000 sheets/hour and can print corrugated paperboards ranging in height from 1.3 mm to 8 mm. Chroma-Print printers come in three models:

· Chroma-Print Eco Economy - is the most basic model with simple automation features. This type of printer is suitable for the printing of entry-level images, and is suitable for the production of the same round press die-cutting machine.

Chroma-Print Dynamic - This is an intermediate model in this series of machines. It uses a combination of a rubber roller and a squeegee to provide more automation than economical machines. This model of press is suitable for those cartons that require high-quality image printing and low-cost order production.

Chroma-Print High Tech high-tech type - the most advanced model in this series of machines, including fast anilox switch, automatic setting system that can automatically print parameter settings, according to different plate thickness The special software for adjustment, print image color compensation device and UV/hot air drying system.

“When we developed this series of presses, we also took into account the price factor,” explains Mr. Rudolf Sirudy, Managing Director of Celmacch. “High-quality printing may be an expensive investment, so we tried Providing a high-price-price printing press for the carton factory, and the right price of parts and accessories on the machine and the quick technical support response, the beauty of the Chroma-Print press lies in the fact that we can provide customers with a budget that is within their budget. Inside, but also able to accurately meet the printing needs of the press."
