THE L-SERIES ADVANTAGE
 
butterflyVisibility
Our unique 15 inch viewing area allows a direct view of impression. Changes to registration can be observed immediately as they are made, dramatically reducing the time and material wasted getting jobs running.
Zero Plate Bounce
Print cylinders are locked down in steel carriages, eliminating print cylinder bounce.
 
geoPrecision Impression Control

Print impression and ink delivery operate independently, allowing the operator to always set a perfect kiss impression for superior print quality.

 
Tight Print to Print Register
Over 80% of the parts & gears in our presses are made in our own plant on state of the art CNC machining centers. Precision machining eliminates run out and results in a press with superior running register control.
 
Heavy Duty Construction
Our standard press is more rugged than our competitors heavy duty versions. We put higher quality components into the press for durability and consistent high quality printing over the life of the press
 
roomRoom to Work
Our unique open print head design gives the operator easy access to components on press, eliminating the need for slide out drawers used by our competitors. All components can be removed easily, independently and without tools from the front of the press.
 
Access to the Web
No other press has an open design with the access to the web that you get with a Propheteer. Our customers can create custom web paths to convert specialty products or add new components with little or no modification or expense.

COMPLETE PRESS SPECIFICATIONS

UNWIND
- Power roll lift protects operator from back strain.
- Maximum roll capacity is 10.25 inches wide weighing 545 pounds for the 1000L press
- Maximum roll capacity is 13.75 inches wide weighing 704 pounds for the 1300L press.
- Maximum roll diameter is 40 inches.
- Three inch diameter air expanded coreholder, with inflator included.
- The roll end detector is easily adjusted to minimize waste when using cores of different thickness.
- Dancer regulates the roll tension brake and smoothes tension variation caused by an out-of-round roll.
- Splice table with pneumatic clamps and a cutting surface with a built-in straight edge and adhesive tape roll holder facilitates accurate and quick splicing.
- Unwind Tension System - A high friction roller connected to a magnetic brake creates web tension. A transducer roll located downstream from the unwind tension drum measures the amount of web tension, feeding that information to the tension controller, which in turn controls the magnetic brake. The tension controller features convenient setting buttons and numeric display of set point and running tension.
- An electronic edge guide precisely controls the web position.

OPTIONS: Corona treater; larger diameter unwind roll capacity; multiple unwinds, web cleaner.

PRINTING
- Maximum printing width is 10" for the 1000L and 13" for the 1300L.
- Plate cylinder circumferences range from 6" to 15", to 24" with adapter.
- Drying is by high velocity air, with four heat settings.
- Lineal (web direction) running registration adjustment is 3/8 inch.
- Lateral (across the web) running registration adjustment is 3/8 inch.
- Quick change anilox roll, metering roll and doctor blade.
- Chrome anilox roll (customer-specified engraving), rubber meter roll and doctor blade provided.
- Idling drive for the anilox and metering rolls engages when the press stops.
- Plate cylinder impression is thrown off when the press stops.
- Impression rolls are through-hardened precision ground tool steel treated for corrosion resistance.
- The inking system can be skewed to achieve perfect alignment to the printing plate, and to compensate
for any inconsistencies in plate or stickyback material thickness.

OPTIONS: adhesive print kit (delam/relam); automatic registration control; cartridge doctor blade systems; chrome and ceramic anilox rolls with customer-specified line counts and cell volumes; individual print station throwoff control; ink pumps; motorized 360° registration; reverse printing station; rotary screen printing head; turn bar; 24" print cylinder adapter; other durometer meter rolls; UV curing lamps; diecutter; double power drying system.

CONVERTING

DIECUTTING
