2.1 ONE (1) DRENT OFFSET PRESS – Supplied By Others
NOTE: The press supplier must have an outfeed unit prior to the post press decurl to
control the tension on the press up to that point and insure that the web is delivered to the
post press decurl with a tension variation not to exceed + 3 pounds.
2.2 ONE (1) POST PRESS DECURL UNIT WITH DANCER
The Post Press Decurl Unit is used to control the amount of web curl in the board just prior to
going into the cutter. This unit is used for final control of curl with immediate results. This
faster reaction to board curl enables better operator-thus reducing the possibility of carton
jamming.
Motorized decurl bars controlled by push buttons from unit and delivery section
3/4″ (19.1 mm) decurl bars
Decurl wrap control idlers
Rapid “retum lo center” upon activation of a push button
Web guide (BST) with auto edge guide
Air Loaded Dancer
2.3 ONE (1) ELS PLATEN DIE CUTTER CREASER UNIT
The Cutter Creaser is a platen type-reciprocating unit in which the printed web is die cut and
creased into a specific carton form. The unit includes two sub sections – the metering section and
the platen section. The metering section includes a metering nip, intermittent feed nip and
moving curved plate assembly designed to place exactly the same amount of web into the cutting
area each impression of the cutter creaser.
Maximum operational speeds to 700 FPM or 350 impressions per minute, whichever is less
Cut-off maximum 30″ (762 mm) – minimum 15″ (381 mm)
Cutting and creasing loads to 400,000 lbs.
Maximum Cutting/Creasing Rule 725″ (18,415 mm)
100% control of web into cutter during entire cycle
Low inertia moving curved plate contacting bottom side of web
Rigid steel upper and lower platens
Lower platen pull down springs
Self lubrication system
Three point support of each crankshaft
External heating and cooling system for controlling lubricating oil operating temperature
Electronic batch counter
Refrigeration System for controlling feed roll surface temperature
Two (2) die chases
Two (2) counter plates
Auto set-up as in Item 2.8
Special: Scanner modification, same as previously done on Z-1030.

Servo Driven Lower Feed Roll
The ELS (Elcctrically Line Shafted) Feed Roll system drives the lower feed roll with a
rigidly coupled servo drive system. The motion of the lower feed roll is controlled digitally
by calculating the optimum velocity profile for a given printed repeat length at any given
production speed, within the ratings of the cutter. The primary function of the lower feed
drive system is to minimize the speed differential between the web and the driving lower
feed roll while maintaining control of the web. The lower feed roll is specially designed for
operation with the drive system to reduce the overall roll and system inertia while
maintaining liquid cooling capabilities for the lower feed roll and the servo motor.
operator simply inputs the repeat length of the printed carton and the system automatically
calculates the optimum performance for the system.
Servo Driven Metering Roll
The ELS (Electrically Line Shafted) Metering Roll systen drives the metering roll with a
reducer and servo drive system. The ELS Metering Roll drive system provides accurate
metering roll control for web feed and registration control. The operator will simply input
the repeat length of the die layout and the system will automatically feed up the correct
amount of web per cycle of the cutter. The system will also provide integration for a print to
cut registration system.
NOTE: Poly coated (backside) substrate may be run on the cutter, speed may vary
depending on the substrate.
2.4 ONE (1) NORTH AMERICAN CERUTTI, ZERAND DIVISION PRINT TO CUT
REGISTER SYSTEM
The North American Cerutti, Zerand Division print to cut registration is integrated in the
equipment servo control system to allow the highest level of response.
A commercially available color registration scanner is used to detect the cutter registration mark.
The system makes automatic adjustments to the repeat length as web and print variations enter
the cutter over a long term.
The system makes automatic corrections for instantaneous variations of the print to cut
registration position.
NOTE: Registration expectations: # .006″ 98% of the time, to the key color, under steady
state running conditions. Registration is based of the mechanical integrity in the previous
operation and the printed mark. Variations in the consistency of the printed mark will
have an effect on the print to cut expectations.

2.5 ONE (1) ELS STRIPPER UNIT
The Stripper’s function is to remove all of the waste from the carton patterns before the carton
blanks are separated by the delivery unit.
The Electronically Line Shafted (ELS) Stripper uses two servo (vector) motors to drive the
reciprocating nip cam and the pin cylinder. Each is timed to the platen die cutter position. The
reciprocating nip timing and pin cylinder angular position may be adjusted while the platen die
cutter is running or while stationary. Pin cylinder position may also be adjusted manually to
compensate for cut form phase changes as line speed is increased and/or decreased. Displays are
provided for pin cylinder and nip timing relative to the platen die cutter allowing the user to
reduce make ready time. Both motors are synchronized to the position of the platen die cutter
through a main reference encoder mounted on the cutter.
