Most important functions of the machine can be controlled from this place. Other control elements are positioned on the control panels of printing units and feeder. They are used for direct control of functions of the respective part of the machine. The control panels are easily accessible for the operator of the machine. Their face area with pushbuttons is covered with a foil keyboard, which makes maintenance and cleaning of panels considerably easier. 3.1.2 Operator safety The machine is equipped with covers with safety protection. Any opening covers nor tilting safety spacers, the machine will be stopped automatically. Mechanically blocked STOP buttons are located always within the reach of the operator. The lockable main switch eliminates the possibility of machine start by an unauthorized person. The places of convergence of the printing rollers are protected with swinging safety spacers that will stop the machine even in case of a small deflection. CE safety standard Safety braking is ensured by a separately energized independent brake with a dedicated relay safety module in accordance with CSN EN 60204-1 standard. All safety elements satisfy stringent safety regulations incl. CE and GS standards. GS safety standard 3.1.3 Printing unit stands The assembled sides of the printing units, feeders and deliveries form separate units. They may be disjointed (for transportation). ZTI_RA75_2008_A_3Q_EN (01)_V1 / 22.8.08 ©KBA-Grafitec s.r.o. 9 Rapida 75 3.1.4 Basic technical information Machine drive The drive of all printing rollers and inking unit rollers is derived from outside positioned angular gearing. The gearing is automatically central lubricated. The main electric motor drives the transfer roller on a given printing unit (in the middle of the machine, according to total number of printing units) with a belt and gear transmission and with co-engaging gears of another printing unit. The main electric motor is equipped with a separately energized independent brake that will stop the machine in case of activation any safety element. 3.1.5 Feeder The feeder guarantees proper sheet loading in the machine. The feeder head (described separately below) is its most important part. The working height of the pile is controlled with the feeder head caliper and can be adjusted by height setting of the complete feeder head. The feeder is adapted for palettes. The palette is to be positioned behind the board (the palette trolley can be approached using the wedge supplied). Side feed of the complete board with palette can be used for correction of inaccuracies in sheet pile alignment. 3.1.6 Nonstop feeder Nonstop feeder ensures continuous feeding without stopping the machine after taking all sheets from the main feeding palette. The machine is equipped with an auxiliary grate (with independent drive) that carries the rest of the pile towards the feeder head while the operator can add sheets to the pile and add it to the fed one. The grate consists of rods that are to be loaded in slots in the pallet. The grate is carried on two girders driven with an electric motor through chains. Feeding pallet for nonstop feeder should be stacked onto standard pallet. 3.1.7 Feeding pallet for nonstop delivery Feeding head The feeder head is equipped with two sets of suckers, i.e. with four lifting and two transport ones. The lifting suckers can be tilted in sides. The caliper is not provided with blowing in pile function. A pair of stationary blowers perform the function, providing longer time for better sheet separation. The height of the transport suckers can be adjusted even during machine operation. The rotary valve that controls air distribution pressure and vacuum modes can be removed from the feeder head body Feeding head easily and cleaned from deposited paper dust. The working height of the table is bonded with the feeder head height adjustment. Feeder head adjustment according to paper size using an adjustable screw is easy and quick. The calliper is easy adjustable, equipped with a contactless position sensor that allows reliable control of the feeder table stroke in the range of production speed. Excessive movement of the feeder head caliper into the paper pile can be compensated by adjusting pile height with respect to the lifting suckers of the feeder head. This operation can be done using a rotary control element on the feeder head during machine operation. 10 ©KBA-Grafitec s.r.o. ZTI_RA75_2008_A_3Q_EN (01)_V1 / 22.8.08 Rapida 75 3.1.8 Basic technical information Ionization The device eliminates paper static charge. It contributes to more reliable transport of sheets in this way. Use of ionization is suitable in particular for thin and recycled papers. The device consists of two rods with high-voltage points (one in the feeder and one in the delivery) and two nozzles blowing ionized air in the pile from the feeder head. The device can be activated on the feeder control panel. It automatically stops if no paper transferred to the machine (to prevent operator to be electrostatic discharge hit in contact with a bar or a nozzle; although it is not dangerous, but unpleasant). Ionization unit on the feeder head 3.1.9 Conveyor The vacuum conveyor transports sheets from the feeder on the face lays of the machine. It has its own air supply. The drive is designed to reduce speed of the sheet transported when it falls on the face lays, which limits potential deformation of sheet front edge. There is a tilting girder above the suction tapes on which two transport rollers or rotary brushes delivered as machine accessories are mounted. Vacuum conveyor 3.1.10 Double sheet detection The machine is equipped with ultrasound and mechanical double sheet sensors as standard. The ultrasound one indicates feeding more than one sheet and requests no adjustment. In case of incorrect feed, feeding and the obstruct sheets on feeding bar became is stopped. There is a certain (small) group of printed materials that are analyzed incorrectly with the sensor. E.g. some recycled papers and expanded thicker papers that incorporate air cells belong to this group. Juast these gaps Double sheet ultrasound sensor make even single sheet recognized as a double sheet. In such case, turn the double sheet monitoring system off and use an electro-mechanic device instead. This device should be adjusted according to the thickness of the processed material (ref. Instruction Manual). Electro-mechanic and ultrasound systems switching is possible using the delivery touch screen. Electro-mechanic double sheet detection ZTI_RA75_2008_A_3Q_EN (01)_V1 / 22.8.08 ©KBA-Grafitec s.r.o. 11 Rapida 75 3.1.11 Basic technical information Conveyor pressure pulleys for heavier materials It is suitable to use special thrust wheels of a more robust design for feeding. Wheels pressure is spring actuated. The intensity is adjustable. Thrust pulleys 3.1.12 Face lay Sheets are transported on the bottom face lay that consists of a shaft with 8 stoppers. The shaft with stops can be shifted in a small range in the printing direction and its right- and left-hand parts can be deflected opposite to each other. This allows compensating minor face or diagonal deflections when adjusting register. All stops of the face lay are provided with a pulley that prevents in damage of the reverse side of sheet when it is passing through the stops. In the two stops of the face lay, there are optical barrier sensors for sheet detection on the face lays and skewed sheets detection. Two pneumatic cylinders designated for safe catching and blocking of the incorrectly loaded sheets so that they could not get in the first printing unit operate in close cooperation with the system for sheet monitoring on the face lays. 3.1.13 Side lay Side alignment of the loaded sheets is provided with two vacuum side lays - for each direction of side aligning. Adjustment of positions of both side lays can be made on the attended side using the handle. Side lay adjustment can be carried out even during machine operation. The lay design itself allows using one or more suction chambers, which has effect on the the force of sheet pulling. Thanks to slots in all channels, jamming with paper dust is eliminated. 3.1.14 Side lay operation monitoring device. Each of two side lays is standard fitted with optical sensors detecting sheet loading on the level of the side stop. Incomplete sheet loading by about 0.3 mm (0.012") is indicated with an acoustic signal prompting operator to adjust the device. The device is not intended for measuring or control of accuracy of side alignment but rather for inspection whether the side lay has been adjusted properly by the machine operator. 12 ©KBA-Grafitec s.r.o. ZTI_RA75_2008_A_3Q_EN (01)_V1 / 22.8.08 Rapida 75 3.1.15 Basic technical information Pregripper The machine is equipped with a lower swinging pregripper that will grip an aligned sheet when at rest, then will accelerate it smoothly to the speed of the machine and hand it over in the grippers of the subsequent transfer roller. The pregripper is equipped with a device for pregripper grippers blocking in the open position. This device prevents in gripping an incorrectly fed sheet with the grippers of the pregripper and its subsequent transport in the machine. As all the rollers with grippers, the pregripper uses stop boxes with special plastic filled grooves on the surface filled with plastic. This allows precise sheet transport and eliminates paper dust accumulation. 3.1.16 Dampening and inking unit rubber rollers Dampening unit and inking units are fitted with Böttcher rubber rollers. For rubber rollers washing we recommend Böttcher or similar products; some suitable washing agents are listed in the Operation Manual, see chapter 8. Böttcher rubber rollers 3.1.17 Dampening unit The dampening unit is a four-roller continual device with dampening solution forced circulation and cooling. All rollers are without any blanket. The inking and water pan rollers are made with rubber coating, the metering roller is provided with chromium plated surface finish while the bridge roller with polyamide coated surface. Engagement and disengagement of all dampening rollers is fully automatic, pneumatic controlled depending the machine mode . The speed of the water pan roller is derived from controlled electric motors via machine control electronic Blanket-free dampening system. The quick dampening pushbuttons are located on control panels. The position of the bridge roller can also be switched over from the control panel (possibility of connection of the dampening unit with the inking roller of the inking unit).

This dirt mostly adheres to the printing plate and causes deterioration of printing. Optional modified drive of dampening rollers is offered, which make slight speed difference between the form roller and the dampening roller. In this way created relative movement (shear) will remove all mechanical dirt from the printing plate very effectively. A slight increase of dampening roller wear may occur within the mentioned option use, depending on setting of the dampening unit rollers. 14 ©KBA-Grafitec s.r.o. ZTI_RA75_2008_A_3Q_EN (01)_V1 / 22.8.08 Rapida 75 3.1.19 Basic technical information Inking unit The inking unit consists of 19 rollers of which four are inking rollers and four are distribution rollers. The drive of inking unit rollers consists of angular gear wheels, which considerably increase wheels engaging. This substantially limits negative effect of the inking unit drive gear wheels on printing quality. Inking unit drive wheels The distribution rollers are seated in sliding bushes. The intensity of distribution can be adjusted to 0 to 30 mm (0-1.2“) within the machine idle. The design of the drive of the distribution rollers allows phase offset of distribution with respect to the form roller periphery. This function can be used for modification of colouring intensity in the direction of printing. Inking unit is equipped with hollow rollers and therefore can Distribution phasing with respect be additionally equipped with inking unit temperature to the form roller stabilization system. The standard version of the machine is supplied with zone ink ducts equipped with segmented blades. They allow very precise ink supply to the inking unit according to consumption from individual form parts. It improves the possibility of colouring intensity control considerably. Optionally the machine can be fitted with with ink duct cover (also available for once shipped machines). This cover prevents in dirt falling into ink in the ink duct. It is to be installed directly on the ink duct body. The guard is tilting and easily removable without use of tools. Ductor surface is special low wear ceramic coated. The drive of the ductors is provided with independent electric motors and its speed is controlled with the control system of the machine in dependence upon machine speed and colouring intensity setting. To improve stability of the printing process or to allow printing using water-free offset technology on the machine, the inking unit can be provided with a temperature control system.

Distribution setting is comfortable without use of tools after cover opening. 3.1.21 Inking unit with temperature control The RAPIDA 75 machines can be provided with inking unit cooling and heating system (a conditioned inking unit). This device consists of three hollow distribution rollers in the inking unit of each printing unit, coolant distribution system in the machine and TECHNOTRANS cooling aggregate, type alpha.c. It is very advantageous to maintain constant temperature in the inking unit when using standard offset printing with dampening. Stable temperature contributes also to achieving Inking unit distribution rollers with temperature control stable printing conditions. The operator can obtain the same results at the beginning, in the course and in the end of the job. Changes of ambient temperature will not affect the printing quality. The standard variant of the inking unit is ready for installation of the temperature control system by using the hollow rollers. Even once shipped machines can be temperature control completed. Steel rollers are rust protected by additive in the cooling solution. 3.1.22 alpha.c alpha.c is designed to allow temperature control of inking unit to be independent of dampening solution dosing in the dampening unit. Its compact design reduces necessary space. In case that the machine is equipped with the inking unit with temperature control, an independent unit is not used for dampening solution circulation, but the dampening solution circuit is connected to the TECHNOTRANS common aggregate. Cold air intake on the front and upper heated air outlet allow device to be wall installed. Optionally available is a pipe reducer to the print shop exhausting system TECHNOTRANS combined cooling device The device operates very reliably and with high precision of the controlled temperature.

The device for remotely controlled motif diagonal cocking positioned on the transfer roller allows compensating machine register diagonal deviation during machine operation and even during printing. Principle of operation is as follows. The transfer roller flange is eccentric, turning it (using the motor), the transfer roller axis deflection occurs, resulting in motif turning. The total control range of the diagonal register on each printing unit is 0.12 mm (0.005“). Within the operational range, the printing forms must be copied precisely. The required precision of mutual position of the printing image with respect to the centring holes in the face direction must be within tolerance of ±0.1mm (0.003“). Control of the diagonal cocking is possible from either the ErgoTronic remote control desk touch screen display or from the delivery panel touch screen display. 3.1.29 Printing plate semi-automatic loading Printing form loading is one of the basic operations of press preparation for printing. This means the form to the form roller installation. This operation consists of a number of sequential precisely defined steps that have considerable effect upon preparation time when changing printing jobs. Printing form loading represents: • • • • • • form inserting into the front clamping strip on registration pins form gripping in the front bar form winding up on the form roller with engagement of the Printing plate offset and form roller in pressure semi-automatic loading form end inserting in the rear clamping bar form gripping in the rear bar form stretching In case of semi-automatic printing form loading, only the first of the steps listed above has to 18 ©KBA-Grafitec s.r.o.

There are smooth chrome-plated sheets over the pressure rollers in the standard variant; these sheets together with standard chrome-plated guiding sheets on the transfer drums (see 3.1.33) create the most suitable solution in order to prevent in damage of prints. The solution is recommended for printing on all standard types of paper and paper with higher square weights. Upon wish, it is possible to substitute smooth guiding sheets above the pressure rollers with chrome-plated wires. The guiding wires are side adjustable and for that reason, they can be positioned so as to guide sheet in its unprinted part. Moreover, this solution allows easier access to the pressure roller e.g. during washing it. If the machine is equipped with guiding wires over the pressure rollers, guiding sheets over the pressure rollers are not supplied. 3.1.41 Central lubrication After achieving the specified machine speed programmed in the machine control system, the lubrication system will deliver the required quantity of lubricant in the places where it is necessary. Besides this, there are places on the machine which have to be lubricated in intervals given by the Maintenance Manual or a lubrication schedule. 3.1.42 Air distribution system The air distribution system provides main machine functions in the area of the feeder, delivery and complementarily also in the printing units in the path of sheet passage. A dry rotary compressor is a source of pressure and vacuum air in the feeder area. Low-pressure blowers positioned under the delivery and controlled with frequency converters from the delivery touch screen are used as a source of air in the delivery. Pneumatic elements allow control of machine functions both with the automatic system and machine control with pushbuttons from control panels and control screen. The pneumatic circuit is driven by a dedicated compressor. The compressor is also available as noise-damped. As standard the machine comes with blowing hose useful eg. for machine maintenance and cleaning. If the printing shop is equipped with a compressed air central distribution system, the printing press can be installed without this source, however, it should be provided with air regulation and filtration system. Pressure in the pneumatic distribution system is 0.6 MPa (87 psi). 3.1.43 Washing device The RAPIDA 75 machines are provided with equipment for: • • • Inking unit automatic washing Offset blanket automatic washing Pressure roller automatic washing as an option The automatic washing devices are controlled using the touch screen display positioned on the delivery panel.

ErgoTronic remote control panel Standard type of ErgoTronic provides remote settings for ink duct, colour ductor speed, register and water pan rollers speed from the control panel. All information on the settings mentioned above are displayed on the control panel screen. The ErgoTronic control panel with viewing illumination is used for storage and inspection of prints. The control panel is position angle adjustable. The control panel also includes two-position numerical displays for illustration of the current position of each ink duct zone. The control panel is also provided with USB connector. The machine setting data for TECHKON densitometer various printing jobs can be saved on a hard disk of the ErgoTronic system computer or on USB Flash Disk. The ErgoTronic system can be provided with TECHKON or Basic densitometers. ErgoTronic with the densitometer, may serve as the autodensitometer, which makes it ready to on-line connection to the press. After densitometric measuring of the measuring strip on a printed sheet, the measured values are compared automatically with the values on the reference print or with preselected values. In case that the measured values exceed the tolerance set beforehand with respect to the reference values, either automatic colour profile of ink ducts is reset automatically or the operator of the press will confirm the proposed correction of the colour profile of the ink ducts and such correction is implemented subsequently. The objective of the changes of the colour profile of ink ducts is achieving of identical colouring of the printed and reference sheets. The densitometer can be equipped with a polarization filter on DENSITRONIC densitometer the basis of an order. The polarization filter is used to suppress the effect of gloss of blue colour - the device is sensitive to the colour like if dry and enables to compare density values measured on both dry and wet prints. The values measured with the polarization filter and without it are different; the density with the filter is always higher (by 0.2 - 0.3 D, not linear). Measuring with densitometer without filter allows for the printer comparing and colouring sheets currently even if ink is wet as measurement is carried out under the same initial conditions. Moreover, measuring with the filter enables to compare densities even with "dry" print, e.g. with ZTI_RA75_2008_A_3Q_EN (01)_V1 / 22.8.08 ©KBA-Grafitec s.r.o. 25 Rapida 75 Basic technical information a pattern or loading reference values from a pattern.

ZTI_RA75_2008_A_3Q_EN (01)_V1 / 22.8.08 Rapida 75 3.2.2 Basic technical information CIP4 interface CIP4 integration is an important element for improvement of quality of production together with reduction of costs (Cooperation for Integration of Processes in Prepress, Press and Postpress). CIP4 is a name of organization (www.cip4.org) established from a free association of companies known as CIP3. CIP4 brings technology for automation of the printing job processing management with emphasis upon interconnection of all production stages from customer service up to shipment. KBA-Grafitec company is a member of the CIP4 organization; PPF and JDF standards have been defined within CIP4. PPF format (Print Production Format) is an international standard used for data description in the process of printing job processing. PPF file contains detailed data on the job (such as job name and author, customer, times and terms, previews of individual colour separations, transfer functions, definitions of register marks and densitometric fields or data for finishing operations). Most information enters the PPF file in the prepress stage, then data become available for next production steps, reducing data entering repeatedly. The archived PPF files can be used again in case of job repeating. JDF (Job Definition Format) is a new universal standard independent of the platform and able to interconnect various stages of the printing job production process and to it related operations perfectly. It is based on experience and knowledge from already existing technologies developed under the auspices of CIP4. In order to guarantee full compatibility, it includes also PPF standards based on CIP3 and PJTF (Portable Job Ticket Format) by Adobe. Using JDF, it is possible to describe a job from the first steps when it is discussed with the customer up to packing and shipment to the customer. We meet also the term JMF (Job Messaging Format) in association with JMF. JMF holds a function of a standard communication language among various devices of your printing shop or between these devices and your MIS Management Information System. The term MIS means an economic and planning system of the printing shop. However, in order such interconnection could operate and we could utilize the potential offered by JMF, it is necessary to use such devices and applications that understand JMF messages and are able to receive and dispatch them and to respond them in an adequate way. The MIS system generates so called job tickets (messages containing working tasks) and sends them to the respective devices. Individual devices inform the MIS system back on the current status of their task during working tasks (job tickets) processing. The ErgoTronic system allows utilizing data in CIP4 formats for quick presetting of the printing press for a printing job so that information on the printing job from a selected JDF/JMF or PPF file (previews of individual colour separations, transfer functions, etc.) are processed with the ErgoTronic system and subsequently used for presetting individual ink ducts and colour ductors. The ErgoTronic system allows in association with the standards defined by CIP4: • • • • • • • printing press presetting (ink ducts, ductors) on the basis of digital pre-press data obtained from CIP4 technology printing press setting using CIP4 technology for standard process colours (CMYK) as well as special customer's colours modification of presetting obtained from CIP4 data before proper setting of ink ducts and ductors machine presetting for printing both face and reverse sides according to CIP4 data definition automatic printing job centring automatic trimming in case that preview exceeds printing area printing press presetting according to factory predefined or user correction curves ZTI_RA75_2008_A_3Q_EN (01)_V1 / 22.8.08 ©KBA-Grafitec s.r.o. 27 Rapida 75 Basic technical information Use of user correction curves allows: • • optimizing machine setting with respect to printed paper optimizing setting of each printing unit with respect to its printing characteristics • easy loading a new correction curve with the name used in processed CIP4 data • creation and optimizing user correction curves on the basis of the data obtained during preceding orders use of one of five preselected sets of user curves by mere depressing the corresponding pushbutton loading an unlimited number of sets of user correction curves archiving sets of user correction curves • • • The ErgoTronic system can be incorporated into both a system using PPF files and JDF workflow system: 1. Integration of the GrafiControl system into workflow with PPF files PPF files are complemented with previews of individual colour separations (or potentially generated) simultaneously with data creating for the CTP system. There are two ways to transfer PPF files into ErgoTronic system: • • 2. online using the network (TCP/IP protocol) using USB Flash disk ErgoTronic system integration into simplified JDF workflow The ErgoTronic system is incorporated in the local computer network together with the other devices supporting JDF standard. RIP generates JDF ticket for the ErgoTronic system together with creating data for CTP. The JDF ticket contains previews of individual colour separations similarly like PPF file in the case described above. The ErgoTronic will receive the JDF ticket pertaining to it and allow its processing. During printing job processing, the ErgoTronic system enables to send reverse information on the status of the printing job in the JDF ticket generator. 3. ErgoTronic system integration into simplified JDF workflow The ErgoTronic system is incorporated in the local computer network together with the other devices supporting JDF standard. Then ErgoTronic remains waiting for a message sent by JDF ticket generator of the MIS system. The JDF ticket contains previews of individual colour separations (similarly like PPF file). The ErgoTronic will receive the JDF ticket pertaining to it and allow its processing. During printing job processing, the ErgoTronic system enables to send reverse information on the status of the printing job in the JDF ticket generator. 28 ©KBA-Grafitec s.r.o.

This device represents an option for the machines of the RAPIDA 75 series and is designated for high-quality area and partial lacquering with dispersion lacquer. The benefits of the machine equipped with the lacquering unit consist above all in higher efficiency of job processing. Powdering can be reduced to minimum. The job can be dispatched for next processing almost immediately after printing and lacquering. Resistance of the printed sheets against doubling and mechanical damage. The lacquered sheets are considerably more resistant to water and the printed colours better resist to fading out as a result of sunshine. Impressive visual and utility effects can be achieved by use of highly gloss, pearl or metallic lacquers. The device consists of the following parts: • • • • lacquering unit; it is used to transfer uniform film of dispersion lacquer on the sheet even at maximum printing speed lacquer circulation system; its main function consists in providing lacquer supply in the lacquering unit Powerful IR and hot air drying; it is used for perfect drying lacquered sheets even at maximum printing speed Extended delivery; it extends drying path and is used for positioning of powerful drying units 1) Lacquering unit 2) Lacquer circulation system 3) Drying 4) Extended delivery 30 ©KBA-Grafitec s.r.o. ZTI_RA75_2008_A_3Q_EN (01)_V1 / 22.8.08 Rapida 75 3.2.3.1 Basic technical information Lacquering unit The concept of the lacquering unit is based on the design of the printing unit of the RAPIDA 75. Passage of sheet through the lacquering unit - ie. design and arrangement of the counterpressure roller and the transfer drum - is identical with passage of sheet through the printing unit. General design of the lacquering unit does not differ too much from the printing unit. Lacquering unit Also lacquering roller position and diameter are identical with the offset roller in the printing unit. The diagram of the lacquering unit is shown below. 1) Transfer drum 2) Pressure roller 3) Raster roller 4) Chamber doctor blade The principle of the raster roller and the chamber ductor blade system is used for lacquer dosing and creating a very uniform lacquer film. Lacquer that is collected in raster roller depressions circulates in the chamber doctor blade system. Excessive lacquer is wiped from the raster roller with the chamber doctor blade and is discharged back in the circulation circuit. Lacquer that is collected in the raster roller relief is transferred on the lacquering roller with pressure. Finally, the uniform lacquer film is transferred onto printed sheets by the counterpressure roller. Lacquering unit - chamber doctor blade system Lacquer quantity transferred on paper is determined with raster roller raster density. A standard printing shop specializing in a certain segment of printed matters will usually have 2 to 3 raster rollers with different raster values. The raster value of the raster roller is stated using a number that indicates number of lines per 1 cm (1 inch) of length. In case that raster roller relief is not represented with depressions, but with a spiral micro-groove (Haschur), LR marking follows after the number specifying the raster value. It applies generally that the rollers marked with LR transfer higher quantity of lacquer at the same raster value and the lacquered surface has better quality from the viewpoint of visual perception, however, such roller is a little bit more expensive when compared with the roller with depressions. Common available rollers have raster value ranging between 60 and 120 l/cm (152–305 l/inch). Basic features of several raster rollers are listed in the table below. However, the values are only approximate. They will differ between various manufacturers of raster rollers and depend, among other, also on the type of lacquer used. ZTI_RA75_2008_A_3Q_EN (01)_V1 / 22.8.08 ©KBA-Grafitec s.r.o. 31 Rapida 75 Basic technical information Raster density [l/cm] 60 80 90 100 120 80 LR 100 LR 120 LR [l/inch] 152 203 229 254 305 203 254 305 Transferred lacquer quantity [cm3/m2] 17 15 14 11 8 [BCM] 11 9.7 9 7.1 5.2 The manufacturer does not specify values Quantity of wet lacquer transferred on paper [g/m2] 4.0–6.0 4.0–5.0 3.0–4.0 2.5–3.5 2.0–3.0 6.0–8.0 5.0–6.0 4.0–5.0 [oz/yd2] 0.12–0.18 0.12–0.15 0.09–0.12 0.07–0.10 0.06–0.09 0.18–0.24 0.15–0.18 0.12–0.15 The standard variant of the lacquering unit is fitted with the raster roller with raster density of 100 l/cm (254 l/inch). Raster roller of this kind is to perform appropriate thickness lacquer coating to avoid printed sheets deterioration. Replacement of the raster roller in the lacquering unit represents an easy, manual and short task for the machine operator. It is necessary to pay increased attention when handling the raster roller. Its operational surface is hard, however simultaneously also very brittle. Any damage of roller surface will be subsequently apparent on the lacquered area. The raster roller weight parameter is then important from this viewpoint. The weight of the roller made of aluminium alloy is approximately 25 kg (55.1 lb) and weight of steel roller is approximately 75 kg (165.3 lb). However, the aluminium alloy roller is approximately by 10 to 15% more expensive. The lacquering unit allows area or partial lacquering. Use of a lacquering blanket that is clamped on the lacquering roller is the simplest and also the most cost effective alternative of area lacquering. The area for lacquer transfer is to be created by lacquering blanket padding. The pads are calibrated papers of the corresponding dimensions and thickness that are mounted to the lacquering roller body in a simple way. For a precisely demarcated area or for partial lacquering, is is suitable to use so called "stripping" blanket. This blanket is designated for manual cutting or for machine cutting using a cutting plotter. The places that should not transfer lacquer will be stripped manually after preliminary cutting. This will create lacquering relief formed with height differentiated areas on the lacquering blanket. The lacquering blankets are offered by all reputable suppliers of offset blankets. In order to achieve register between the printed and lacquered images, the lacquering roller is equipped with a device for fine adjustment of the axial and peripheral register within the range of ±2mm (0.08“). This device can be used even if the machine is in operation and is controlled manually. The surface of the lacquering roller can also be turned by 50 mm (2") in the direction from collection edge. This operation is carried out manually and only in the machine is idle. 32 ©KBA-Grafitec s.r.o. ZTI_RA75_2008_A_3Q_EN (01)_V1 / 22.8.08 Rapida 75 3.2.3.2 Basic technical information Lacquer circulation system Chambered blade block adjacent to the raster roller during lacquering operation is connected by hoses and electric cable to the lacquer circulation pump and all the components make up the lacquer circulation system, a product of Harris&Bruno (www.harrisbruno.com). Lacquer applying on the raster roller is carried out by means of the chamber doctor blade. Manual operation of the chamber doctor blade is very simple and consists in mere blade tilting in order to dry its internal space after washing or for the purpose of replacement of sealing consumable material. It is necessary to pay increased attention to wear of both blades and side sealing of the chamber doctor blade. Printing speed with lacquering depends on many factors, i.a. quantity of lacquer, ink, and dampening solution. However, when maintaining optimum conditions, the result of lacquering operation is not influenced with machine speed thanks to the properties of the used concept of the chamber doctor blade. Lacquer circulation pump The circulation system features a number of automatic functions, controlled by the machine operator in a comfort from a small touch screen of the lacquer circulation pump control panel. These functions include: • • • • • • • Chambered blade engaging and disengaging to the raster roller Circulation circuit filling with lacquer Removal of residues of old lacquer and water from the circulation circuit Lacquer circulation during lacquering operation Monitoring of waste pan overfilling Lacquer discharging from the circulation circuit Washing of the complete circulation circuit including chambered blade using the warm water The complete system includes also a set of suction and discharging tubes that are positioned in the tank with lacquer and in waste tank during lacquering unit operation. If the operational mode of the lacquer circulation pump is changed (lacquering - discharging - washing), it is not necessary to remove these tubes from the tanks. The lacquer circulation pump requires compressed air supply for its operation. This supply is represented by a compressor that is included in the delivery and is powered from the printing press itself. The compressed air circuit includes also an air drier that is also included in the delivery. 3.2.3.3 Drying Drying of a lacquer coat during the sheets travel is a vital part of the process. Dispersion lacquers contain a considerable share of water that must be removed from the lacquered sheet surface before its unloading in pile. A powerful drying system is used for this purpose. Two components participate on dispersion lacquer drying - IR radiation and hot air. The task of IR radiation is lacquer heating in order to release water in ambient atmosphere. In this way created moisture is absorbed with hot air that is subsequently discharged from the area of the delivery. Gaseous products arising during drying that would annoyed the operator of the machine with odour are discharged simultaneously with moist air from the area of the loader. Two disengaging cartridges installed in the area of the delivery are source of both drying components. The first cartridge contains 3 IR radiators and 3 hot air units. The consequent cartridge contain 4 sources of hot air. ZTI_RA75_2008_A_3Q_EN (01)_V1 / 22.8.08 ©KBA-Grafitec s.r.o. 33 Rapida 75 Basic technical information Of course the IR as well as the hot air output is continuously controllable and adjustable for any combination of printed materials. The drying system contains a box positioned close to the delivery. Cables and abundantly dimensioned air hoses lead out to the delivery. The box contains drying system control and two powerful blowers - one for air supply in hot air radiators and the other one for moist air exhaustion from the area of the delivery. Waste air can then be discharged directly in atmosphere. There is a touch display on the front wall of the drying system box; this touch screen is used for control of the drying system. Besides the possibility of mutually independent adjustment of output of IR radiators and hot air supplies, it is possible to save various settings of the drying system for different printed materials and different printing conditions using the display. This function can then be used by the operator for quick setting of drying parameters for repeating jobs by reading the saved data with the control system and immediate carrying out the required setting-up. The drying system can be used also for drying of non-lacquered prints. Hot air drying remains off and the output of the IR radiators is reduced adequately. It is advantageous to save such setting of the drying system and to use it repeatedly. The drying system is a product of GRAFIX GmbH (www.grafix-online.de). Dispersion lacquer drying is energy highly demanding and this should be considered for electric supply design to the printing press - see the table below. 3.2.3.4 Extended delivery The extended delivery of the printing press is also a part of equipment for powerful lacquering with dispersion lacquer. It was created by inserting extension in the horizontal part of the existing high delivery. The extension length is 1,410 mm (55.5"), adapted to facilitate insertion and connection of drying system cartridges. The selected concept of extension itself and its covering allows simple and comfortable handling the drying system cartridges. The extension includes also sheet guide that allows influencing sheet passage. The sheet guide consists of a chrome-plated steel sheet with holes through which it is possible to supply compressed air under passing sheets or to exhaust air under sheets. Moist air is exhausted from the area between the lower and upper branches of the chain track with two tubes of a large diameter.

Parts of the machine are fixed to the skids with cross section of 100x200 mm. The main parts of the machine on skids are anchored to the truck body using anchoring prisms and covered with PE foil. Protection against corrosion is provided by application of preservation oil only. On floors Crate floor is compliant with European international truck direct transportation within the total transport period of twenty days. The main parts of the machine are fixed to the floor skids. After inserting siccative, the front part of the machine is covered with foam PE and top part of PE packing and packing is sealed. Contact with marine aerosol is not recommended. In crates Crates are used for European, Euro-Asian and overseas combined transport with consequent direct transport within total transport time of 100 days. Packing in crates can be selected according to the method of protection against corrosion: • • European packing with the main machine parts protected by PE packing and siccative. Accessories and removable parts are protected only with oil. The protection period is 3 months for Europe-like climate environment. Contact with marine aerosol is not recommended. Overseas packing with multi-layer PE-AL-PET protection and siccative with protection of all elements in crates. The machine is protected for the period of one year for Europe-like climate environment. Marine transport and storage in harsh climatic conditions shorten the storage period. It is necessary to provide sufficient area for machine unpacking, i.e. to allow access of lifting mechanisms or other lifting systems. It is advisable to have abundant space available. It is also necessary to remember that the distance between the place of unpacking and place of erection should be as short as possible and this area should be provided with relatively even and solid floor (road) on which it is possible to transport machine parts in the final installation place. The following illustrations apply to handling the unpacked machine parts using a crane.

It should positioned so as it would not be positioned in place exposed to intensive sunshine, in the proximity of heaters of places of more intensive air circulation. Unsuitable positioning causes frequently printing problems. Virtually the same applies to printing shop environment like to a paper warehouse, i.e. temperature range of 20°C ± 4°C (68°F ± 7°F) with relative humidity of 55 to 70%. Environment dustiness should be maintained as low as possible. Machine positioning in the recommended minimum area is illustrated in the figures below. 42 ©KBA-Grafitec s.r.o.

If there is a central compressed air distribution system in the production premises, you can use it after reducing the machine input prossure to 0.7 MPa (100 psi) for machine control. The compressor for pneumatic distribution lines is not required then. Because of relatively high noisiness of the compressors, it is not necessary to position them close to the machine.
