impression

Issue: Impression goes off in the middle of the run but paper feeding is continuous( even when the impression goes of the paper feeding does not stop). after this even after starting fresh feeding cycle the impression doesn't turn on at all. Would be grateful of any suggestions. Note: I have a...

I am currently running an AB Dick 9870 that seems to be stuck on impression. It has happened before and I have been able to resolve it by going into "water" and back to "idle/off." However, it will not disengage no matter what I do. I tried a suggestion from someone having similar issues on a...

Hi, Anyone come against this problem on a Sakurai - or any ideas from another press? I've had an expert up to look at it three times - darned expensive as we're at the top of New Hampshire - and so far no luck. Head two goes on impression fine, but head one will go on impression for one sheet...

We have a single color Heidelberg Printmaster with almost 20m impressions. For a while now the impression has seemed to be getting weaker and weaker. No where in the book is this addressed, but the pressman thinks that there are springs that pull the blanket to impression cylinder during run...

Ok so amongst a few other issues that I have been able to work around, this press just decided not to engage the impression solenoid while the press is running. I can hand feed a sheet into the press and it will trip correctly but as soon as I turn the motor on it will not. I have replace the...

Hi, I have been facing a problem with my MO-E . When the operator hits the Paper Stop button, the final sheet that goes down to the delivery does not have a print on it, as in the Impression gets switched off. The paper ends up half way between the delivery pile and the impression cylinder...

Dear All, Currently i'm face issue with the press SM102 4 color pefector CPtronic control. Problem happen to be the machine counter display was wrong compare with in CPtronic console! while the press is running under 7000 speed the counting are same but after speed increased more that 8000...

Hi, As of lately I have been encountering a problem, where the second unit impression switches on, on time, but the first unit gets delayed. I spoke to a technician about this, and he said it must be something wrong with the pneumatics, so I got the air compressor serviced, checked and fixed all...

I have serious problem when printing 4+4 on Roland 308. The side printing on the first 4 units looks terrible. I have a lot white spots which made my prints without contrast, and solids ( blue, red ) look grainy. The situation is worst if printing dark colors. If I print 4+0 everything is OK...

Hello Dear Forum Members, What is the difference between a Single Blanket Press and a Double Blanket Press? Do Komori Presses have a Double Blanket? How does a double blanket help in the printing process? Also, where to look for in a press to identify what kind of blanket does it have...

When the machine is started its fine. The heads individually work fine but when all 4 are on at the same time the machine shuts off and restarts. Sometimes the vacuum stays on when machine shuts off and the main console goes blank and starts flashing on n off "INIT PLUS". We have checked the X7...

Hi everyone, I'm running an old SM102 6 color year 1987, I m getting the print problem on the 4th unit, when i set the impressions, all the units print fine but on 4th unit we just only get the print on leading edge and tail edge of the sheet, To overcome this problem i have to pack the blanket...

We need to fit a new Impression cylinder jacket on our SM52-5 on unit 4, the price that Heidelberg are quoting us for the work doing is rediculous, as this isn't covered on our service contract. I've changed one on the last unit before and it wasn't to tricky, but i understand that the other...

does anybody know how to clean komori impression dials so the needle does not spin around when adjusting printing pressure?

Hi Everyone, I have a GTO 46 that for some reason will not go on impression. I changed out both the rubber feeder fingers thinking that was the problem but still no change. It will feed paper fine then when I go on impression, it sounds like it is but when you check the sheet and the...

My 2 color Hamada 665 is having an impression problem. It seems that the detent pawl has really gotten out of whack. It will not consistently engage the impression during a job. It might impress on 2 sheets then miss 4 then impress on 20 then miss 1. I have tried many different things all to no...

Had a small set scew back out and fall into cylinder. Luckily only got pressed once.Heard there is an epoxy that I can use to fix thread marks. Can anyone point me to where I can find this item?

The printing press cylinder against which the paper picks up the impression from the inked plate in direct printing, or from the blanket in offset printing.

AB Dick, KBA, and Ryobi all have now introduced large common impression cylinders to reduce the number of gripper changes. Does this have a real world advantage?
