This Abig Plate Driven Printing Press Is An Innovation In Design For Both Relief, Intaglio And Pressure Sensitive Plates. The Sturdy Frame Is Made From Cast Aluminium 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 Gearbox With A Reduction Ratio Of 3:1. Unique To This Press Is That The Printing Plate/bed Is Fitted With Two Cog Racks That Are Then Driven By The Cogged Lower Roller. This Enables The Plate/bed To Move Without Necessitating Friction From The Top Roller And Four Bearings Lead The Plate/bed Which Is Made From 2.5mm Zinc-plated Steel Screwed To A Plywood Base. Abig Presses Are Constantly Developed And From Time To Time Engineering Improvements Are Made. Clearance Height Approx. 24mm (up To 40mm On Special Request).
