ORLANDO, Fla. — September 9, 2016 — For the first time in North America, BDT will demonstrate the TPA Alignment System that enables automated registration and transport of any media that can be fed by the BDT TPF series of feeders. In addition, BDT will also feature its full product line of automated media handling solutions.
BDT Print Media will be at booth #2763 of Graph Expo 2016, Sept. 25-28, at the Orange County Convention Centre in Orlando, Fla.
About the TPA Alignment System
Registration of media is a critical function for the input to printing and finishing systems, but current solutions can be temperamental and require a skilled operator to setup and operate. BDT is introducing the TPA Alignment System that makes media changeovers trivial and registration fully automated and highly reliable, regardless of media size, weight or feed rate.
BDT’s TPA Alignment System utilizes the patented BDT Tornado Technology, providing the ability to control print substrates by contacting one side of the media only. Transport and registration is performed simultaneously with no media specific mechanical adjustments and no requirement for compressed air. The BDT TPA Alignment System enables the registration of the widest range of media types, surfaces, and format geometries in the industry including specialty media that typically cannot be registered currently.
"BDT Print Media is pleased to introduce our North American customers to the truly ground breaking TPA Alignment System," says John Kuta, North America director of sales and marketing for BDT Print Media. "When used in combination with the TPF Feeders from BDT, the resulting media handling system is unmatched in its versatility and reliability. We are confident this new accessory will expand the range of applications our customers can use — driving to higher productivity and profitability."
