4-Color Sheetfed Offset Press with Dedicated Coating Unit
Year of Manufacture: 2002
Machine Serial Number: 206035
Format: B3 (approx. 370 x 520 mm)
Totalizer Impression Count: 140,357,935 Total Impressions (111,973 Working Hours)
Technical Overview
The Heidelberg Speedmaster SM 52-4+L is an exceptionally versatile, highly automated production press. This configuration integrates four multi-color process units with a fully automated perfecting device (convertible between ‭4+0‬‭‬ straight or ‭2+2‬‭‬ perfecting production) followed by a dedicated chambered blade inline coating unit. This enables commercial printing environments to run complex multi-color packaging and promotional collateral with immediate inline water-based aqueous or protective dispersion varnishing at peak industrial speeds.

Advanced Engineering, Coating & Automation

• Prinect CP2000 Center: The master digital touch-screen console controlling all automated mechanical aspects, including remote ink duct zone metering, axial/circumferential/diagonal registration, job memory retention, and wash-up cycles.
• Autoplate System: Semi-automatic quick clamping device for fast, tool-less plate changes that drastically lowers makeready times between signatures.
• Alcolor Continuous Film Dampening: Stabilizes the ink-water equilibrium instantly, keeping color values highly uniform throughout high-volume print runs.
• Integrated Coating Unit (+L): A dedicated, professional flexographic-style chambered doctor blade application unit. Perfect for running protective matte, high-gloss gloss aqueous, or functional barrier sealants across the entire sheet layout.
• Fully Automated Wash-Up Devices: * Automated programmable blanket washing via centralized cloth rolls.
  • Automated ink roller train wash-up blades.
  • Automated impression cylinder maintenance washing.
• Chromed Cylinders: All core plate and impression cylinders feature high-grade hard-chrome plating to protect against premature wear, scratching, or oxidative corrosion.

Feeder & Extended Delivery Construction

• Suction Tape Feeder Table: Smooth central vacuum tape arrangement for high-velocity sheet stabilization and edge registration right before the intake swing-grippers.
• Electronic Double-Sheet Control: High-accuracy ultrasonic protection sensors to avoid double sheet pass-through and prevent plate matrix indentation.
• Automated Perfecting Device (P3 Option): Fully convertible automated sheet turning mechanism, allowing versatile single-pass setups
• Extended High-Pile Delivery (X2 Layout): Extended sheet exit layout specifically engineered to give inline aqueous varnishes crucial travel time to cure under high-volume airflow.

• DryStar IR (Infrared) Dryer: Factory integrated thermal drying grid inside the delivery throat to set water-based coatings instantly, eliminating down-pile marking or set-off sheet blocking.
• Mediprint Powder Sprayer: Integrated anti-static fine powder application to manage unmarred pile stacking.
