Introducing the 508 CSF/WF
|

|
Description
Robust Commercial hot foiling machine utilising a state
of the art
Programmable Logic Control system and mechanical impression
mechanism which can apply up to 30,000 kgs of pressure.
The machine
has been developed with high output production in mind.
Designed to
be used to stamp continuous pack to pack stationery and
continuous
reel to reel web in stand-alone or fully integrated versions,
the 508 CSF/
WF can meet most production needs. |
Purpose
The 508 CSF/WF machine is used to quickly validate, authenticate
and
protect documents by means of applying security features
onto the
documents. Holograms can be applied in either patch or
continuous
striping, which are difficult to copy or reproduce, DATAFOIL®
which is a
clear foil based protection can be applied over data allowing
the data to
still be visible and cannot be removed without leaving
evidence of
tampering. SECURIGRAFIX® can be applied which is difficult
to
photocopy (with correct foil selection) or reproduce and
is used to
identify and authenticate documents. |
Paper
Feed System
The 508 CSF/WF machine is designed to be fully flexible,
by adding or
removing paper unwind and rewind stands the press can
change
production format, making the press the ideal selection
for the security
printer. Full integration into existing print production
lines can be carried
out by SFL's experienced technicians, so reducing the
need for offline
document production.A comprehensive edge guiding paper
control system
ensures accurate and reliable registration
to print.
Web without sprocket holes can be processed along with
registration to
print sensing requirements when these options are specified
at the time
of purchase. |
Foil
Unit
Two full width foil reel holders in the top of the machine;
house the foils
being used for the security applications. The foils are
held under tension
that is applied to the side of the foil roll. The foil
follows a path through
the machine which takes it between the security die and
the document
being processed, then back up to the foil unit which houses
the
computer controlled stepper motor which pulls the foil
through with great
accuracy. The waste foil is collected on disposable foil
cores for quick
and efficient removal under secure conditions. Hologram
registration is
optional at extra cost. An air powered foil separation
system is
incorporated into the design for ultimate flexibility
and reliable results
with a complete range of hot stamping foils. A small compressor
supplied with the machine powers the air separation system.
Additional
full width foil units can be specified at the time of
purchase. |
Hologram
Registration System
The hologram registration system is optional and can be
located within
the foil path of the machine; it is fully adjustable to
allow for positioning
of the hologram on to the document. The system is designed
to apply
either one or more holograms per document processed depending
upon
requirements. |
Impression
Unit
The 508CSF/WF machine houses a unique and robust impression
mechanism, which incorporates a removable die plate. The
dies are
fixed to the die plate, which are customer specified and
positioned to
suit their own application and areas to be foiled on their
documents. The
machine can be programmed to carry out multiple stamps
of the same
image on the same document as well as applying more than
one feature
at a time. The die plate is removable from the back of
the machine, the
die plates are interchangeable therefore allowing for
different jobs or
spare security dies to be ready mounted for use in the
machine. |
