| PRODUCTIVITY |
| With its plate setting system and anilox cassette system, the Metronome has reduced set-up time from 2 hours to 10 minutes. Every activity that slows down production is done offline like, for instance, clean up and job preparation, and cassettes are changed in seconds.
Overall, the Metronome is 250% more productive than its competitors. In other words, you can do with one Metronome, what it would usually take 3 presses to do.
|
| VERSATILITY
|
The Metronome’s anilox cassettes not only let you set-up a job in less than 10 minutes, they are also interchangeable with silk screen or die-cutting cassettes. Turn any printing station into a die-cutting station in minutes.
|
| INGENUITY |
The Metronome features ETI’s latest invention: its Auto Peel-off system. This smart feature will let you start waste stripping automatically, without having to stop the press and manually roll waste around rewinder. Extra time is gained as well as a very considerable reduction of waste.
