Evolutionary and Revolutionary Trends in Sheet-Fed Offset Lithography, 1990 Polymers, Laminations & Coatings Conference Proceedings
Automating control of the many variables in sheet-fed offset printing continues to expand as press manufacturers develop sophisticated systems that simplify makeready and operation. This paper reviews current engineering developments in these areas, with emphasis on systems which speed productivity by replacing adjustments, formerly performed manually by the press operators, with precision automated controls.
