SMART RPC

Fully Automatic
​Simultaneous Plate Changing System
​

---

Plate changing is a key factor in determining makeready time. The SMART RPC Fully Automatic Plate Changer greatly shortens plate changing time and reduces operator workload. Through simple touch panel operation, plate changing is automatically performed on all units simultaneously. This provides powerful support for frequent job changeovers and diverse small-lot printing.

Shorten Make-ready Times Thanks To SMART RPC & The Smart Make-ready
The SMART RPC further enhances work efficiency by printing in combination with the smart make-ready function which automatically performs blanket cleaning, plate changing, preset inking and test printing. Thanks to these systems, make-ready time before production printing is reduced approximately 30% (approx. 3 minutes) compared with the combination of the Full RPC and SMART make-ready function for the RMGT 9 SERIES.
