21.04.2011 - Modern Technology for Weiss-Druck
Weiss-Druck, one of the leading printers in Germany, has invested in the first 96p Lithoman S press to be installed at their plant in Monschau. With a possible output of 4.32 million pages/hour they will push into an area of productivity which was the domain of rotogravure plants up to now.
To be able to handle the massive volume of paper in the Post Press area, Weiss-Druck decided for completely automated stacking lines and palletizing robots from RIMA-SYSTEM. Three stacking lines, consisting of RS 36S indexing stackers, RS 120 high-speed blocking units and three modern RS 400 four-axis robots guarantee the safe handling of the copies to the finished pallet. The integrated job optimizer software PALETTI9 ensures the exact processing of all order data and helps to minimize over-production: the productivity increases.
Already in the past Weiss-Druck was a user of RIMA-SYSTEM Post Press technology and was able to fully optimize his new and existing installations with investments in RS 400 palletizing robots. With the latest installation Weiss-Druck is going to be the biggest user of RIMA-SYSTEM 4-axis robots worldwide.
A family-owned company in the 4th generation, the printing company is known for its continuous growth, resulting in a total of 1400 employees in several German locations. Thanks to a solid strategy which focuses on innovative, future-oriented technology this development is far from its end.
