KBA-Sheetfed has developed new Rapida RSP 106 rotary screen printing press to produce luxury packaging and quality promotional material.
The new offline finishing system, which is also suitable for industrial printing, operates with production speed of up to 8,000sph depending on job.
Rapida RSP 106 features calendar unit that includes one impression cylinder with a special compressible jacket and switched chrome roller.
The calendar unit is said to de-powder the printed sheets, in addition to removing impurities.
It also includes fully automatic blade system with integrated extraction, which removes foreign particles from the chrome roller and extracts them.
Rapida RSP 106 also features screen printing unit that is equipped with AirTronic drum, a perforated impression cylinder with a perforated jacket.
Air suction fixes the sheet above the full area of the jackets, and over it is the rotary screen that can be changed quickly in a few simple steps.
The rotary screen printing press has a capacity to work with varied fabric and screen types, the company said.
According to the company, the new rotary screen system is one of many options for the new KBA VariJET 106 powered by Xerox inkjet press.
Earlier this month, KBA agreed to supply its Rapida 145 sheetfed offset press o France based A&R Carton.
The Rapida 145 press features six printing units, coater, triple extended delivery and automated pile logistics.
