ABIG : Printing Press : Gear Box : 350x700mm : Model 17235

SKU RA17235

This Abig Geared Drive Printing Press is designed for both relief and intaglio printing. The sturdy frame is made from cast aluminum and the top and bottom rollers are both 80mm diameter steel. Adjustable pressure can be applied evenly to the upper roller from each end, and the top roller can be lifted to a clearance of 24mm to allow for thicker relief plates. It is driven by a four-spoke handwheel via a planetary gear box with a reduction ratio of 3:1. Each press comes with a printing plate/bed made from 2.5mm zinc plated steel screwed to a plywood base that moves accurately through the press on guided rollers. The bed comes with coated strips on the side panels to provide friction-free movement. This is a friction driven press – if using with lino or any plate that is more than 1mm thick it is helpful to have runners (lengths of lino or wood the same height) – to ensure even pressure and assist the bed to engage. These presses are constantly developed and from time to time engineering improvements are made. Clearance Height: approx. 24mm (up to 40 mm on special request) Details: Roller width: 350mm Diameter top roller: 80mm Diameter bottom roller: 80mm Bed width: 300mm Bed length: 700mm Weight: approx. 27.8kg Clearance height: approx. 24mm Paper up to A3 size
