The RMGT 9
Providing optimum solutions for printers seeking cost savings
The new RMGT 9 - regenerated with new styling and lineup
The new RMGT 9 - regenerated with new styling and lineup
The new RMGT 9 of Al-size offset presses handles various print jobs with exceptionally high performance. Joining the proven 920 model with its extensive lineup, including convertible perfectors in up to ten colors, the 940 model is designed to accommodate an even wider range of jobs. This model is capable of running sheet sizes up to a maximum of 940 mm in width with a 930 mm wide printing image area and has successfully adopted many of the sophisticated functions found in the flagship RMGT 10. The high-speed separator, automatic nip-checking function, and a host of other performance-enhancing features ensure that the RMGT 9 continues to deliver consistently high productivity.

Lower material costs, lower power consumption, and less installation space than a B1-size press
Printing plate costs and power consumption are markedly lower than for a B1-size press, and the compact space-saving design allows efficient space utilization. Retractable coating unit enables make-ready work during printing A movable varnish coating unit enables the coating cylinder and anilox roller to be raised upward when not in use to prevent scratching of the printed sheets. A safety guard between the main press unit and coating cylinder enables make-ready work for subsequent jobs-such as cleaning the coating cylinder and changing the blanket-to be performed even while printing. |
Prepress data is utilized for easier ink control
By analyzing pre-press data with PPC Server ill (or Ink Volume Setter)*, the ratio of the image area is calculated. Based on the image area data, the PCS-G printing control system automatically selects the conversion curve for each color, sets the opening of the ink fountain keys, and controls the ink rollers.

Automatic cleaning devices reduce time and laborThe automatic blanket and ink roller cleaning devices* can be centrally controlled from the PCS-G printing control system, including setting the start of cleaning for each printing unit and selecting the cleaning pattern according to the amount of cleaning required.
• Option |
Easier roller nip pressure checking functionThe one-touch nip pressure adjustment position cue function and automatic roller nip pressure checking function vastly reduce the amount of labor required during maintenance work. Nip checking is remarkably easier on the press with the nip checking mode that prints actual nip width on a single sheet pass.

Double-diameter cylinders ensure stable sheet transferThe printing unit consists of the double-diameter impression cylinder and transfer cylinder. The large radius of curvature ensures stable sheet transfer by suppressing flapping even when printing on heavy stock and film.
Gripper open/close mechanism ensures reliable sheet transfer
Each gripper shaft features a torsion bar-type gripper open/close mechanism. Reliable gripper-to-gripper sheet transfer at any operation speed ensures stable registration accuracy.

Stable sheet feeding from thin sheets to cardboard
The same high-speed, high-performance separator equipped on RMGT 10 presses is also equipped on RMGT 9 presses. From thin 0.04 mm sheets to thick 0.6 mm stock, sophisticated air management technology ensures each sheet is fed precisely even during high-speed press runs. This stock handling capability offers a wide range of applications from poster to package printing.

Vacuum feeder board enables smooth sheet transfer
The vacuum feeder board ensures smooth, stable sheet feed from the feeder board to the front lay. An integrated brush and runner wheel mechanism shortens the time needed to change sheet sizes. A pneumatic pull side guide* minimizes contact scratches when feeding delicate substrates.

MIS connection software {CIP4-JDF)*
MIS connection software connects a CIP4-JDF compatible MIS (Management Information System) and PCS-G printing control system for real-time printing process management. |
Print Job Manager*
The optional Print Job Manager press operation control system connects compatible presses via a network to manage the production schedule and transmit printing job data. It also collects data on press operating status in real time and automatically generates production analysis data. |
PPC Server (PPC Server III)*
This server converts image area ratio data generated by CIP3/CIP4-PPF and CIP4-JDFenabled prepress systems and provides data on ink key opening volume. |
Features of LED-UV curing system
Low power consumption
Power consumption of the LED-UV curing system is only 10 percent* of that of conventional UV lamp system. In addition, the instant on and off of LED-UV lighting eliminates the need for substantial standby power. *In the case of the 920 model Long-life light source
A conventional UV lamp system's light source lasts approximately 1,000 to 3,000 hours*, but the LED-UV curing system's light source has a long life of approximately 15,000 hours. Moreover, a conventional UV lamp system remains lit in standby mode during makeready work, shortening its life, while the LED-UV curing system remains completely off so light source life is unaffected. * Life cycle of the UV lamp depends on such conditions as on and off frequency. Ozone-less and low heat generation
The LED-UV operates within a UV wavelength where no ozone is generated, eliminating the ozone odor peculiar to UV printing. The minimal heat generated during curing reduces thermal impact on the printed sheets and eliminates the need for exhaust ducting. |
