After working with machinery from other manufacturers for almost 35 years, Printmann installed its first Rapida sheetfed offset press from Koenig & Bauer in 2021.
The new relationship began with a Rapida 105 (maximum sheet format 740x1,050-mm) with seven inking units, coater and extended delivery as a hybrid press for conventional and UV production.
A second press has been installed this year. Again, a Rapida 105, this time with six inking units, and naturally also with a coater and all the necessary equipment for mixed UV production.
The two medium-format Rapidas boast almost identical features: raised foundations for board production up to 1.2-mm, production speeds of up to 16,000-sheets/hr, two-section extended delivery, non-stop pile-changing facilities for both feeder and delivery, inking unit temperature control, CleanTronic Multi (washing systems for the alternating use of conventional and UV inks), EES (emission extraction system), VariDry IR/hot-air/UV dryers and further automation solutions.
