Shorter makeready times and reduced paper waste win over panel of judges. Prinect Inpress Control, the inline color measuring system from Heidelberger Druckmaschinen AG (Heidelberg), was this year’s winner of the prestigious InterTech Award presented by the GATF (Graphic Arts Technical Foundation).
The far faster setup times of this inline measuring system, which Heidelberg unveiled at Ipex 2006, made a particular impression on the panel of judges - a result of the machine no longer having to be stopped for sheet pulls and measurements. Both inking up and registration are quicker, too. The fact that the machine does not need to be stopped also cuts paper waste.
The inline measuring and control system is available for Speedmaster XL 75, Speedmaster XL 105, Speedmaster XL 145, and Speedmaster XL 162 presses.
