Tecnau and LasermaxRoll present their new technology achievements in paper processing and finishing.

DYNAMIC PERFORATION & PUNCHING - TC 1550 PLUS Tecnau TC 1550 PLUS series operates in line with high speed digital printing systems and finishing equipment and offers maximum flexibility for dynamic horizontal and vertical perforations, as well as for dynamic punching which can be added in a modular design. Thanks to the new PLUS technology, the TC 1550 can run up to 180m/min (600 fpm) and reduce the minimum distance between two perforations at maximum speed, with an increased flexibility in applications. What is new? Reduced distance between two consecutive cross perf from 6 to 3.5 at 150m/min (500 fpm) thanks to a dual blade system per cylinder Speed up to 180 m/min (600 fpm) Easy and quick on site upgradability for speed and second blade Increased cross and vertical perforation accuracy at maximum speed

STATIC PUNCH & PERF - TC 1750 Launched at Drupa 2012, Tecnau TC 1750 has been developed to make tractor holes and programmable static fanfold perforations in line with high speed digital printing systems. Tecnau TC 1750 can now be operated as pre-printing (standard) or post-printing processing solution, in line with tight or loose web printers.

What is new? A unique post-processing solution for continuous punch & perf applications Any possible risk of contamination of the printing heads from paper waste and dust is eliminated Mark printing device for TC 1750 and printer synchronization integrated into LasermaxRoll 550 unwinder for white paper management after printer stops

CUT-SHEET PERFORATOR TC 1535 Tecnau TC 1535 dynamic perforator has been developed to dynamically perforate pre-printed cutsheets. Once processed, cut sheets are stacked and delivered on a pack conveyor. What is new? L configuration and a wheel-based perforation system increase perf accuracy 2D Code reading system for on the fly perf, stack according to customer orders and deliver group by group

Up to 12 (6+6) perforation wheels and productivity up to 12.000 sheets/hour Sheet size up to 329x483mm (13x19 inches), paper weight from 80 gsm to 250 gsm INPUT CHANNEL FOR INSERTING MACHINES Presented the first time at Drupa 2012, TecnauGroup has launched for full scale production the new feeding input system for high speed inserting machines. LasermaxRoll u10 and Tecnau TC 7800 pinless cutter run up to 200m/min (680 fpm) and process up to 80.000 A4 sheets per hour (84.000 11 form). Thanks to the new SmartBuffer solution, the system keeps the maximum speed also when processing an uneven number of pages, enhancing the overall performance of the inserting workflow.

30 WIDE STREAMFOLDER f30 LasermaxRoll f30 StreamFolder has been developed to process wide web forms for book-blocks production targeted to short run and book-of-one. In connection with Tecnau and LasermaxRoll cutters and stackers, it can process variable form length at 150m/min (500 fpm). Together with the TC 5300 unwinder, TC 8300 Perforator and TC 7900 Tripla cutter, the f30 StreamFolder increase the range of solutions available for 30 wide web applications. What is new? Z-fold signatures for increased reliability Support 4up, 3up and 2up printing mode Paper weight from 40 gsm to 130 gsm High volume input channel for Libra book on demand solution BOOK ON DEMAND LIBRA 800 Libra is a unique solution for fully automated book on demand production. With a productivity up to 800 books per hour, Libra provides complete flexibility and efficiency for short run, personalized books and book of one production. What is new? Soft cover and hard cover preparation for case binding Book and Photobook production Integrity and workflow control Inline with high speed digital printers thanks to the multi-input channels provided by LasermaxRoll cut & stack solutions for one-by-one book delivery
