Mitsubishi Lithographic Presses to Premiere Diamond V3000LX Sheetfed Press

• Press-wide improvements minimize printing problems stemming from excessive powder, oil stains, scratches, sheet misalignment, doubling, ghosting and water marking.
• A lubrication-free gripper shaft torsion bar and oil-less bearings on gripper shafts of impression and transfer cylinders shorten lubrication time by 75 hours per year.
• New "Maintenance Mode" and "Cleaning Mode" functions result in faster adjustments and quicker press cleanup.
• A bender-less plate clamping system saves up to 100 hours per year otherwise spent bending plates.
• Upgraded preset and repeat functions accelerate makereadies.
• Mitsubishi has pioneered the adoption of superplastic zinc alloy (SPZ) in press manufacturing. Characterized by high design flexibility and structural durability, SPZ is pressure-formed to create the easily cleaned contours and curves of printing unit covers. It also shields against electromagnetic waves.
• The feeder, printing units and delivery are equipped with LED beams so operators can instantly recognize changes in press operation status by the color and/or blinking interval of the beams.

Impact of plate changing
