LARGE-FORMAT SHEETFED PRESSES -- Printing to Perfection

The mechanics of a press must be 100 percent automated if a printer is going to reap the benefits of CIM production, the marketing director argues. "Many of CIM's advantages are derived from presetting a press—not just its ink fountains, but everything from feeder to delivery. To maximize uptime, you need to be able to preset all parameters online, but off-press. That way the press can be producing the current job while the next project is being preset. Our PECOM JobPilot module does just that," Cerfontaine points out.
