2)Its surface is wrapped with abrasion proof rubber of 60 degree Shore hardness.

3) Rubber cylinder is especially crowned to improve desired inking.

5. Printing Phase Positioning Device 

1) It is of electromagnetic clutch brake system.

2) When units are being released or phase setting is done, the brake limits units’ operation to fix them at the same gear points.

1.Automatic production management system

Automatic production control system, merely an order of box information is input on touch screen, then axial and circumference data of feeder, printer, slotter and die cutter will be set automatically featuring accuracy and reliability and realize automation and enhance production efficiency.

2. Slotting Phase Setting
