For procuring used Heidelberg or used Bobst die-cutting machines, trust none other than Goodmachine.

Heidelberg’s inline web-fed converting system is the perfect solution for film/foil laminating, backside printing, hologram-insetting, gravure printing with metallic colours, flexo printing, hot & cold foil stamping, rotary screen printing, and diecutting. This equipment brings together innovative technology, flexibility, and customization, which enables print shops to experience high levels of production efficiency. Instead of installing separate machines for carrying out seven colour print job, UV varnish, foil-stamped vignette, embossing, screen printing, diecutting, and creasing, one can make use of the remarkable and unique Heidelberg ICS equipment, and conduct all of these activities in-line. Sounds great? Isn’t it? Those who wish to purchase Heidelberg presses may get in touch with Goodmachine, a used Heidelberg & used Komori printing machines dealer.

Used Komori Printing Machines Dealer,

Modular Design

Owing to its modular design, the ICS enables print shops to manage all the printing and finishing activities in a seamless manner. Thanks to the Easy Value Add platform, operators can configure the machine according to a specific order. They can also easily switch between printing and value-adding modules, that too without lifting the equipment. The good news is that the equipment has been built keeping in mind the future technologies. It offers an open interface architecture, which allows for easy integration & configuration with other technologies and platforms. This is possible not only in the present but for future use too, thereby promising a long life of the equipment.

Ink Systems

It caters to waterbased as well as UV inks. One can install either or both the ink systems within the equipment and use it to meet the varied requirements.

Handling

In terms of handling, it offers an intuitive interface, thereby allowing the operator to manage the activities with ease and simplicity. The presence of an integrated job storage system makes it possible to save important data such as production parameters, thereby aiding in minimizing errors and reducing waste.

Applications

This equipment is widely used in packaging for tobacco, cosmetics, confectionery, pharmaceuticals, and much more.

Apart from Heidelberg machines, one may also purchase other branded equipment such as Used Bobst Die Cutting Machines and Adast Printing Machine from Goodmachine. Here’s some information on Polar Cutting Machines for Sheetfed Offset Printing

A Variety of Polar Components That Facilitate Cutting Jobs

There’s a whole range of Polar components that can be configured with new & used Polar cutting machines.

Polar offers a wide variety of performance-enhancing components that aid in the smooth operation of the cutting process. Some of them include stack lifts, automatic joggers, 3-side trimmer, conveyor units, gripper loading systems, and many more.

Importer of Polar Cutting Machines


Transomat E for Unloading

This equipment comes handy for unloading of reams from high speed cutters. It serves as a great alternative to stack lifts. It automatically deposits the reams onto the pallets, whilst the machine is still carrying out the cutting process. Since stacking and cutting are conducted at the same time, the Transomat E aids in increasing productivity and reducing production costs.

Transomat for Loading

Again, for loading high speed cutters, these Transomat units serve as an alternative to stack lifts. Polar offers two variants in this segment – 1 BL and 3 BL. While the former enables loading via the front table, the latter carries it out via the rear table. Both of them come outfitted with chip marker option, and enable smooth transportation of reams to the front/rear table, and that too, right up to the clamp opening of the machine. This also boosts productivity, since cutting and preparation of material can be carried out simultaneously. Further, it is simple & easy to handle & use. There is practically no make-ready times involved and there is no need of pressmen to lift any heavy loads. The 3 BL variant comes with a Transomat pusher or optional gripper loading system, which is responsible for depositing the reams directly on the rear table.

POLAR buffer

There may be times, when one needs to store materials to be cut. The buffer facility exactly does that, thereby ensuring a seamless cutting operation. This machine is available in three variants - Air-board lift, Piling-board shelf, and Pressing station.
