Alpna retrofit UV systems are designed for seamless integration into sheetfed presses. Depending on press size, number of printing units, coating requirements and production goals, UV units can be positioned between printing units (interdeck) and at the end of the press (end-of-press).
The configurations below illustrate common arrangements for five- and six-colour presses, including presses equipped with coaters. The final system layout can be tailored to the specific machine and application.
Combine ID and EOP curing positions to support high-speed trapping, special effects, coatings and fast finishing.
Designed for retrofit applications on sheetfed presses such as Heidelberg, Komori, Roland, KBA and RMGT.
Typical examples include one interdeck with two end-of-press units, or three interdeck with three end-of-press units on five- and six-colour presses with coaters.
Every retrofit starts with the press geometry, job mix and curing demand. These layouts provide a practical starting point.
Configuration on a five-colour press.
Configuration on a five-colour press with coater.
Configuration on a six-colour press with coater.
Final placement can be engineered to suit your press and production workflow.
A well-planned curing configuration helps match UV output to the job while supporting productivity, print quality and efficient press operation.
