Europe: Comexi Group, AVT release enhanced makeready solution

Comexi Group and Advanced Vision Technology (AVT) introduce the next generation of Cingular Real to ensure the best-possible automatic print pressure and register during makeready.

The upgraded Cingular Real 2 offers packaging manufacturers enhancements in the form of significant waste reduction.

It achieves this by optimizing the makeready process and enhancing communication between the AVT Argus E Turbo system and the Comexi press.

Cingular Real 2 was recently installed at Clondalkin’s Flexoplast facility in The Netherlands.

Compared to the previous version, the head of the Technical Department, Klaas Struiksma, experienced a 150 m reduction in makeready waste and a time savings of two minutes each time the press made ready.

For a typical day’s production of 10 to 15 makereadies this can equate to savings of material and 30 minutes.

Cingular Real analyzes the printed image pressure without the use of marks and automatically drives each printing deck to ideal pressure during the makeready process.

The solution also compares a PDF file of the printed job and drives the press to perfect registration during makeready.

Both Cingular Real and the new upgraded version can operate on AVT’s Argus E Turbo solutions, which offer speeds up to three times faster with enhanced system resolution.

The result is the highest-possible resolution at previously unattainable production speeds for inspection with no quality compromise or lost data.

Supported by light-emitting diode illumination technology, the solution’s camera provides an unprecedented combination of high-resolution and high-volume quality control.
