MicroColor NW
The new Microcolor NW control station is a direct response to the growing demands now being faced by printers. In today’s competitive environment, no press can operate profitably without the benefit of fast, accurate ink control. To enhance the automated servomotors of the Microcolor system even further, GMI has developed a highly intuitive, touch screen control station. This new workstation can be readily configured at any location on the press line where inking adjustments need to be managed. An optional LCD-based operator console provides even more feedback on press status, along with easy-to-use diagnostic views. Thousands of printers around the world already rely on this combination of easy operation and reliable digital performance to deliver savings of 30% to 50% on make ready, and reductions of 10% or more in running waste.
