4D Printing Goes from PRINT to Production with new KBA Rapida 75 Press

The new KBA Rapida 75 with integrated coater made its North American debut at PRINT 09. The six-up Rapida 75, a 23.75x29.5-inch press, offers a 15,000 sph, is configurable with two to eight colors plus coater and four-over-four perfector, and incorporates some 30 new features. These new features include non-stop facilities for the feeder and delivery, the DensiTronic density measurement and control system, and a CIP3 interface. The press is able to wash the impression cylinders parallel to blanket washing, permitting further significant savings in make-ready time.
