Key Technical Aspects:

Dimensions and Specifications : The Heidelberg Cylinder S measures approximately 3.34 m (L) x 1.96 m (W) x 1.60 m (H) and weighs between 4,500–4,800 kg. It operates on a three-phase industrial power supply with a consumption of 5.5–7 kW. The machine was fully renovated in 2018, including mechanical servicing, lubrication overhaul, and operational restoration for production use.

Paper Handling : The press accommodates a maximum paper size of 54 x 72 cm (21 x 28 inches) and a minimum size of approximately 11.5 x 16 cm. It features an automatic single-sheet feeder with mechanical gripper transport and a high-pile delivery system for continuous sheet output. High-precision mechanical grippers and side lays ensure accurate sheet alignment, supporting substrates ranging from thin paper to heavy cardboard and carton stock.

Printing Unit : The automatic cylinder letterpress system operates with a reciprocating bed and impression cylinder, achieving speeds of 3,500–4,000 sheets per hour. The heavy-duty mechanical cylinder drive with flywheel transmission ensures smooth and reliable performance. Electromechanical controls allow for manual pressure and ink adjustments, optimizing print quality for various applications.

Ink System : The oscillating cylinder inking unit features multiple distribution rollers for consistent ink application. This system ensures uniform coverage and precise color transfer, enhancing print quality across different substrates and production requirements.

Plate Cylinder : The machine utilizes the standard Heidelberg cylinder chase locking system for secure and accurate plate mounting. This system provides stable form locking, ensuring precise registration and repeatability for high-quality printing and finishing operations.
