Mark Andy introduces shaftless XP5000 press

Mark Andy has introduced an updated XP5000 with shaftless design, dedicated to increasing productivity and flexibility for the lean-minded printer.

The Mark Andy XP5000 delivers productivity with true 750 ft/min run speeds on the most difficult applications and a design built for around-the-clock operation. Advanced closed loop auto-registration and tension control systems allow tight process control at high speeds. It also offers process flexibility, allowing the converter to independently pace each print station throughout the press, a critical process for multi-web construction and lamination applications. The Mark Andy XP5000 provides the capacity to perform flexo, UV flexo, cold foil, hot foil, screen and inter-station die-cutting. 

‘The Mark Andy XP5000 is the only press in its class with a true, interchangeable station platform design,’ stated Jeff Feltz, director of product management, Mark Andy. ‘The inclusion of shaftless technology is a natural extension to what has already proven to be the ultimate press in maximizing productivity.’

Other key features of the press include the ability to run a variety of substrates from unsupported film to light board, the flexible Mark Andy ‘QC’ platform cassettes, remote diagnostics capability and an intelligent message center.
