The Morgana RDC is aimed at producers of cartons, labels, and personalised items
Digital finishing equipment manufacturer, Morgana Systems, has released its own branded Rotary Die-Cutter (RDC).
The Morgana RDC is aimed at producers of cartons, labels, and personalised items such as business cards, greetings cards, and postcards.
Commenting on the introduction of this new machine, Ray Hillhouse, vice-president offline business at Morgana, said, ‘The RDC has been designed to meet the needs of today’s digital printers. These companies are keen to handle as many finishing tasks in-house as they can. This unit provides the capability to die-cut, kiss-cut, score, and perforate, all in one pass if necessary, at speeds of up to 4500 sheets per hour.’
First demonstrated to visitors at the “Taking Print Further” event in March of this year, held at Morgana’s Milton Keynes premises, the RDC will receive its official UK national show debut at The Print Show, NEC, in September.
The cutting system is composed of an upper magnetic cylinder, holding the cutting matrix, and a lower counter cylinder. The top-sheet, air-suction deep pile feeder ensures reliable sheet feeding and can accommodate up to 400mm of printed sheets. Maximum sheet size is 368 x 508mm up to 400gsm, with a maximum die cutting area of 361 x 472mm.
