Capacitive-optical double-sheet detector

Rapida sheetfed offset presses can be equipped with three different double-sheet detection systems. In addition to the originally installed ultrasonic detector, a capacitive-optical double-sheet system can be retrofitted. This system is used above all for heavier materials. If a manual calibration is performed, the press switches automatically to the capacitive or optical detector. Simple switching via the press console activates the most favourable alternative for the present substrate. 

 

Benefits

  • Suitable for a wider range of substrates (up to 1.2 mm board) 
  • Microflute corrugated board can be handled 
  • Simple operation (automatic or manual calibration) 
  • Automatic switching between optical and capacitive detection (dependent on material) 
  • Greater production reliability

 

Scope 

  • Capacitive-optical double-sheet detector 
  • Installation and commissioning
