|
Programmable Operation Display (POD) |
The Shinohara 66 II and IIP are equipped with a Programmable Operation Dislay (POD) that gives operators sensitive, single-point control of settings such as plate cylinder registration, inking, and dampening. The POD also has a diagnostic function that identifies malfunctions and displays appropriate countermeasures you can employ.
|
|
Feeder System |
The high-speed feeder is equipped with an on-the-run adjustable feeder head, suckers, and timing controls. Intelligent sensors help ensure a high efficiency, even if paper quality, size, and thickness change frequently. The feeder timing can be microadjusted by turning the hand wheel to instantly adapt to variations in paper quality and thickness.
|
|
Register System |
The front and side guides can be micro-adjusted electronically, even during operation. Two double-sheet detectors, one mechanical and one electric, guarantee proper feeds. The downward swing gripper design facilitates high-speed sheet transfer even with thick stocks.
|
|
Cylinder System |
The cylinders' 7 o'clock layout and bearer-to-bearer contact prevent print shock and imperfections. The cylinder also includes pneumatic cylinders for engaging or disengaging the blanket cylinder and also ink and water form rollers for fast makeready.
|
|
Inking and Dampening System |
Ideally laid-out ink and water rollers ensure smooth and even ink milling and distribution. In the dampening system, water feed can be adjusted on the run, and the solution is mixture-controlled at the re-circulation device. A skew roller helps distribute a consistant water film across the plate.
|
|
Delivery System |
The delivery system features the sheet brake wheels, the sheet decurler, air showers, the powder sprayer, and the static eliminator. The timing of each device is coordinated and matched to print speed, resulting in safe, stable, and rapid delivery. Controls are situated on the delivery side, and for additional convenience, the delivery pile truck is common with the feeder pile truck.

Shinohara produces quality, commercial duty, professional sheetfed offset color printing presses for the printing and graphic arts industry. As of year 2000, the company Shinohara has been in business for over 80 years. Shinohara is located in Japan and has produced many varieties of sheetfed offset printing presses that offer superb print quality, low maintenance, and fast makereadies. Heidelberg printing presses and Komori sheet-fed offset color printing presses have nothing over the Shinohara line of presses.
In the market for a digital offset sheetfed color printing press? Compare Shinohara to Heidelberg digital sheetfed presses and Komori offset color presses. Shinohara offers the simplest most cost effective solution to go from digital prepress to on-press color makeready. Here's the lifecycle in a nutshell: Prepress Production software on say a Macintosh computer, via Network 100 BaseT ethernet LAN, to a CIP3 (committee for prepress, press, and postpress) converter, which can be a Windows NT Shinohara CIP3 Station, to a Shinohara printing control console, to a Shinohara model 52, 66, 74, or 104 color printing press. Now compare this prepress to press to postpress process to that of a Heidelberg. Heidelberg is more complex. It goes from a prepress production software over a Network 100 BaseT ethernet connection to a CPC32 converter, then to a CPC51 converter, then to a printing control console, then to a Heidelberg printing press. Komori's digital prepress to press to postpress process is the msot complex of all. It goes from a prepress production software system over the 100 BaseT ethernet line to a CIP3 converter on a Windows NT or 95 or 98 system, to a Macintosh (!) which writes to a magnetic card writer, then via the magnetic card to a printing control console, finally to the Komori printing press. Whew! complicated digital press lifecycle.
Shinohara's line of color printing presses are CIP3 compliant. CIP3 (committee or cooperation for prepress, press, and postpress) is a growing initiative in the printing and prepress industry over the last couple years to combine the process of press, prepress and postpress and thereby streamline print production. This combination of functions is a giant step forward toward integrating the manufactury of printing materials (read books, pamphlets, leaflets, flyers, catalogs, you name it) by computers. Aka computer integrated manufacturing (CIM). Thus the digital, because computers are digital systems. So you could also say digital integrated manufacturing of printed material. The Fraunhofer Institute for computer Graphics in Western Germany, together with several press makers (including Heidelberg) is responsible for creating CIP3. CIP3's base technology is print production format (PPF), whereby related printing information or data is shared acrosss processes and systems. CIP3 PPF for long.:w
Model 52 II is a two-color sheet-fed offset color printing presses. "52" because it supports 370 x 520 mm sheets. That's 520 or 52x10 mm of wider stock range. The maximum sheet size and printing area of the 52 two-color series have been increased to 370mm x 520 mm (14-9/16" x 20-15/32") and 360mm x 510mm (14-11/64"x20-5/64"). The minimum sheet size in single-sided mode (II) is A6-type postcard -- just 100mm x 148mm (3-15/16" x 5-53/64"), and stocks of thicknesses from 0.04mm to 0.4mm (0.0002" to 0.016") can be run at rates of up to 12,000 IPH. This wide range of paper sizes and thicknesses for the 52II and 52IIP sheetfed press means greater throughput and increased business opportunities for printing companies and printing subdepartments. The "P" in 52IIP stands for reverse out or duplex or double-side or two-side printing of the offset press.
Standard features of the Shinohara model 52 II and IIP two-color printing presses include preloading feeder pile, mechanical double-sheet detector, electronic double-sheet detector, feeder timing microadjustment, skewed-sheet detector, overrun sheet detector, remote ink fountain roller sweep adjustment, split ink fountain blade, continuous dampening system, remote dampening roller speed control, dampening solution refrigeration and circulation device, automatic alcohol supply system, operator-side impression adjustment dial, sheet decurler, delivery static eliminator, spray powder device, faulty delivered sheet detector, ani-marking system (star wheel), and POD touchscreen.
Optional features include side guide detector, anti-static blower on feeder head, integrated brush and wheel adjustment, dampening fountain solution mixing device, ceramic dampening fountain roller, ghosting reduction form rollers, hickey picker blade, Shinohara semi-automatic plate changer (SPC), plate cylinder cocking system, quick plate clamp system, register pin system, automatic blanker washup system, anti-marking system on the no. 2 impression cylinder of the 52IIP, non-stop delivery, radial perforating device, tab inserter, anti-marking system (super blue or ICP), swing-away unit (imprinting and numbering).
In printing, everything begins with precision. Sturdy components, advanced manufacturing, and a unique foundry have given Shinohara sheetfed model 52 offset color printing presses a reputation for extraordinary precision. Heidelberg or Komori printing presses have nothing over the 52 two-color press.
Today, runs are shorter, changeover more frequent, and customers more demanding. In response, Shinohara 52 2-color series' high level of automation helps to increase printing press cycle time, reduce offset workload, and boost color printing productivity.
The Shinohara 52II (2 color single-sided) and 52 IIP (2 color duplex, or double-sided, or reverse out, or perfector) accept large sheets, and are loaded with optional features (see above), allowing print shops, printing departments, at for instance colleges or univerisities, or commercial shops, a wider range of services for your sheet-fed demanding customers. Expand printing and imprinting business to include color postcards, numbering, imprinting, and much more.
