Has the software been updated by Muller Martini? Had a prima plus ARMYS do the same kind of stuff after we had muller do a software update. Sometimes we would have to use dummy plugs to get pockets to clutch out and in. We would boot the machine up and it would be in german, sometimes it would...
Replace weekly. We do ours weekly on both the sheetfed and the webs unless we have a pressman that emulsifies and spits a bunch of ink back into the water system or if we run a very alkaline paper. Since we have to flush the system after that we replace the filter anyway.
As Adil already mentioned, I've worked on Commercial high quality Heatset Webs for years, 4 cylinders in a unit. Everytime we had a dented/smashed cylinder we always sanded the damaged area with a Dremel to get good adhesion and filled it with JB weld. Let the JB weld set and sanded the JB weld...
Yes you can either zero set with a brand new fountain liner in and a feeler gauge (medium drag) or with the liner out and compensate for the thickness of the liner (on the press I work on it is 0.010" (10 thousandths of an inch) so I would use a feeler gauge 0.010" thicker to compensate for the...
So there are a couple of things to check.
1) Under the ink cheeks on some presses along the edge there is a strip that goes under there to help seal the gap and push the foil up tighter to the cheek to seal.
2) Are you running the fountain in the up position with a dry ink duct foil in? If you...
In the future if anyone has to do this, you have to remove both small gears coming off of truck assembly, and remove all of the arms off of the truck assembly. Be aware your water oscillator will no longer oscillate but if you're just trying to get by it and using the unit only to lay water down...
We shattered a gear in a unit and need to disable the ink roller train on a Harris M110. It is my understanding that if we remove the first idler gear after the ink truck mechanism and disable the truck mechanism arm to prevent the oscillators from attempting to oscillate that this should work...
Does anyone have any experience with these and how do they compare to a OEM Muller HK-75V head? I know the DB75V heads are half the cost, but is that worth it in the long run?
Oh I almost forgot to mention, measure your water supply to get more accurate conductivity information, because if you have really low quality water with a base conductivity of like 500 then going to a conductivity of 1200 is only 700 over water and you will not be able to print.
On the old Color King 2000 I used to work on we used PRISCO WEBFOUNT 211. Also a little trick that might help when we would get tracking off of the grater rollers we would actually rub them down with grease and it helped tremendously. Also on that press our conductivity usually ran in the...
We have an RGS IV system that will work intermittently. Sometimes the lights/camera will be bright and work properly. Other times the lights will be dim or not be on at all and it will quit working. Some days the RGS will work all day, other days the lights might work for 5 mins and then they...
Unfortunately I have no experience with Megtec splicers, I've only worked on Jardis, Contiweb, Martin, and Butler splicers.

We had this happen on both of our M600s before where everything is lit up as though it is moving. Sometimes cycling the power several times will get it to clear for a little while. You can check the pots and hope that there is a bad potentiometer that is shorted causing the erratic feedback...
Outside of getting Manroland/Goss to refurbish (bearers and cylinder bearings) a press does anyone know of anybody else who performs this service in the United States?
So if the pneumatic actuator has failed, after power up it doesn't recognize that it exists and then it basically removes the option from the screen because it doesn't think that it is there?
