Semi-automatic mounting machine SAMM

flexo plate

- The automatic mounting machine for the corrugated postprint industry - Highest accuracy of measurements and positioning (0,005 mm / 0,0002”) - Eliminates mounting related press downtime - Operator interaction time is minimized - Extremely accurate mounting - Extremely fast - Optimal workflow The SAMM Postprint for the corrugated industry belongs to the top range of AV Flexologic mounting machines for mounting flexographic printing plates onto mylars. This flexo mounting machine has been developed for our customers who demand the highest standards in mounting speed, repeatability, consistency and accuracy in the corrugated or postprint market. When mounting, the operator can choose an existing job or create a job. The operator pre positions the flexo plate roughly on the mounting table. Upon recognition of the mounting marks through the high tech cameras, the plate is automatically positioned. The pressure roller presses the plate pneumatically onto the mylar. The operator uses the foot pedal to rotate the cylinder and mount the plate airtight. A proofing cylinder with digital adjustment for a perfect proof is available for the SAMM Postprint. In this case, after mounting the plate cylinder is automatically brought to the correct position for pulling a proof. The SAMM Postprint software automatically calculates any distortion based on the information provided in the job (mylar thickness, etc.). Distortion is then digitally compensated. This one mounting drum is thus suitable for all presses. Robotic positioning enables accurate position down to microns
