Preco launches Rotary Converting Platform
US company Preco has launched its Rotary Converting Platform series, aimed at web converters and manufacturers that produce multi-layer construction packaging, parts and components for the medical, pharmaceutical, electronic, label, automotive, electronic display and RFID markets.
Preco's Rotary Converting Platform (RCP) is a continuous process, servo-driven system where each rotary station is electronically geared to allow adjustments for optimizing tension as well as making registration correction at every processing point. 'Converters and manufacturers will appreciate how quick and easy it is to make very precise web-to-die registration changes as well as die-to-die synchronizations,' said the company in a statement. 'Preco's direct drive gearing into the RCP ensures greater die-cutting accuracy by reducing the potential for backlash or swathing in the gearing.'
Easily customized to fit unique processing needs, Preco's RCP systems are modular for maximum flexibility in registered web converting. They can accommodate web widths from 7” to 20” and multiple processes including metal to metal and registered rotary die-cutting, kiss cutting, top/bottom cutting, laminating, embossing, continuous laser cutting and island placement.
Preco manufactures customized automated processing systems for high speed precision cutting, perforating, welding and other specialized industrial processing applications.
