In commercial printing with its many short and medi- um runs, fully automatic plate logistics helps operators harness the full potential of their automated presses. Makeready times are shorter and the printshop personnel can concentrate on the decisive aspects of the produc- tion process and on print quality. An eight-colour perfec- tor press exhibits the efficiency and 4-over-4 production at maximum speed. The transfer from the plate logistics module to the simultaneous plate changing system Drive- Tronic SPC eliminates manual interventions. With a modular design of its logistics systems, Koenig & Bauer offers multiple solutions for fully automatic plate transport to the plate changers on the press. The follow- ing standard modules can be selected to suit the existing printshop installations and the desired level of automation: • Separation of individual plates and transfer to the transport system Additionally, there are various components that cater to special circumstances including the integration of several presses into a single logistics system. Individual modules are either installed above the press or outside the immediate press area in an effort not to hinder the press operators. The Rapida remains fully ac- cessible during plate changes. The printing units are only placed off limits for a few moments by light barriers during vertical plate loading and changing motions. The transport systems (chain conveyors) can be tai- lored to the requirements of the customer’s printshop. The plates take different routes during transport to and from the printing units in efforts to eliminate risk of interference or assignment errors.
