Fully-automated Press Delivery from Muller Martini Bringing Optimal Efficiency to the new Valpak Plant

Controlling press delivery will be the proprietary Muller Martini MACOS JDF-compatible and JMF-enabled Master Control System in the CIP4 protocol. MACOS will provide centralized control and tracking of any and all of the 12 products being delivered – and for the first time in the industry will communicate via JMF back to the press that it’s time to initiate the auto transfer function to begin printing the next set of signatures. In addition, this unique system will also communicate back with Cox Target Media’s planning system at the plant, reporting such data as job status along with specifications that can be utilized in planning future jobs.
