Goss launched an upgrade for the M-600 press to support the press model’s competitive edge in color control and eliminate potential obsolescence issues. Now the standard on all new M-600 press installations, the benefits of Omnicolor II press controls include start-up waste lowered by anything from 20% up to 50% as well as significant reductions in turnaround time.
The new features of the Omnicolor II upgrade are purpose-designed to achieve a more automated process to support the press operator. The ability to automate press setting direct from CIP3 data is a key area that reduces a three-stage process down to a single step, resulting in less waiting time and eliminating error potential.
The significant waste reduction is enabled by a range of system improvements, including:
Underpinning the Omnicolor II development are latest-generation hardware components of the Goss Omnicon controls system proven for controlling production on even the largest commercial press systems, such as the 96-page Sunday 5000 presses installed at Polestar, UK. M-600 users can now also enjoy easier operation via a large touchscreen display and HMI software, as well as systems architecture and connectivity designed specifically for modern, industrialized production.
