Characteristics and Technology


ROTASCREEN.TU –  Open Bearing System

Additionally to all advantages of the G-Type Closed Bearing System, the U-Type printhead with the open bearing system offers fast, safe handling and set-up of the screens together with the color pipes during design changes. This very compact and solid construction with merely one rigid high quality steel support across the printing machine table, assures optimum view onto the printed fabric between each printing station. Furthermore an optimum and uniform color application is guaranteed by the original ZIMMER MAGNET SYSTEM PLUS, which combines the advantages of the revolutionarily Magnet System with the traditional blade system.

Digital Synchronisation, between the screens and the printing blanket drive guarantees high printing accuracy at any printing speed of up to 120 meters per minute. Depending on the required printing width one or two servomotors are mounted on each printing station.

Open Bearing Printhead Type U - Individual width adjustment of both print heads allow narrow printing on any wider machine and the new ACR-5-control system permits easy handling, short set-up time, automatic repeat setting, design memory and quick reproduction of re-orders. Screens, color pipes and roll rods are installed and changed simultaneously.
