Productivity-enhancing automation
Optional inline punching and automated plate loading
Automatic inline punch

Screen’s automatic inline punching system is the industry leader for enabling perfect register on press.
It does this by performing two types of punching (for press and platesetter registration) at the same time, immediately before mounting the plate on the drum.
This method gives much greater registration accuracy compared with either manual or off-line punching, eliminates human error and achieves faster press makeready.
Punch blocks from Heidelberg, Komori, Bacher, Protocol, Stoesser, Grapho Metronic and Screen are available, covering the full range of sizes for all major press types.
Up to four punch blocks can be mounted and selected according to plate size and press type.
