New KBA-Flexotecnica NEO XD LR “Hybrid” Press KBA-Flexotecnica, a member of the Koenig & addressed by new wrap-up safety covers with protective glass doors ensuring maximum operator health and safety. A new level of press ergonomics, which makes anilox and plate sleeves change faster and easier even in the case of large web widths and repeat sizes, guarantees effi cient and economic production. The NEO XD LR is the fi rst fully hybrid machine featuring the unique distinction of using different fl exo printing technologies. A newly-designed system for easy extraction of the inter-color dryers and a new access door on the top of the central drum printing group frame, together with the “pipeless” doctor chamber design that removes all ink piping and related adjustment parts from the operating area, make maintenance easier and faster. Considered a model of effi ciency among fl exo presses, the NEO XD is equipped with a number of new integrated electronic solutions selected to make the machine’s automation and control systems more effective and easier to use. Latest generation touchscreen panels serving as a user-machine interface for data and operation are an effective response to printers’ increasing demands for easier interaction with the machine’s control system. A revised ESP (energy saving package) including next-generation electric and electronic components, the improved ventilation system with a redesigned air recirculation network, and a new washing system with integrated cutting-edge viscosity control ensure maximum process performance with the lowest energy consumption delivering the highest level of environmental friendliness. Moreover, the NEO XD LR is equipped with an array of integrated solutions aimed at minimizing waste during start-up and production. With the new NEO XD LR HYBRID, KBA-Flexotecnica demonstrates its commitment to developing cutting-edge, ergonomic and fl exible solutions for the market as well as meeting the growing pressures for effi cient and cost effective production with the lowest environmental impact. RAS-mc Right Angle Slitter DESIGNED FOR DIGITAL FINISHING video „ Quick change cassettes „ "Offset press" style feeder „ Double sheet detect/interrupt „ 13.5” feeder capacity „ Delivery conveyor Booth #2535 „ Precise registration „ 14" x 20" max. sheet size „ Gutter cut slitting blades „ Compact footprint „ Integrated emergency stop The RAS-mc is the only right angle slitter that combines high production speed with product size flexibility. Using quick change cassettes, product size changeover can be completed in less than two minutes, without tools. Equipped with the auto-adjust cassettes, product size changeover can be completed in as little as ten second. The RAS-mc is a true production machine, designed and built in the USA, for printers around the world. THERM-O-TYPE DIGITAL FINISHING SOLUTIONS 800.237.9630 WWW.THERMOTYPE.COM OUTSIDE THE U.S.A. 941.488.0123 Bauer Group (KBA) (Booth 1435), showcased its CI fl exo NEO XD LR HYBRID earlier this year. It is engineered for printing with solvent and water-based inks as well as curing ink systems, such as UV-LED and EB. With up to twelve colors, a cut-off from 400 to 1,200mm, a maximum web width of 1,650mm, and a maximum printing speed of up to 500m/ min, this press meets various production demands in fl exible packaging. According to KBA-Flexotecnica the NEO XD LR is the fi rst fully hybrid machine featuring the unique distinction of using different fl exo printing technologies ranging from solvent or water-based inks, UV-LED or EB inks, either as single printing process, or as a multi-process combination; on the main central drum as well as on inline downstream units. This is all accomplished on a wide range of substrates ranging from fl exible fi lm to paper and board. Cutting-edge technical solutions have been applied to the NEO XD. These include a new ultra-stiff printing unit designed to minimize the effects of vibration and plate bounce in the most severe printing conditions ensuring an excellent print quality at maximum speed. During the NEO XD’s development phase, the focus was on safety which was Offi cial Show Daily | PrintingNews.com GRAPH EXPO 16 | September 27, 2016 | 39
