Oosterhout, January 2020
- Cellesche Zeitung is using the necessary
update of its Q.I. Press Controls (QIPC) automation systems to further
intensify its collaboration with the Dutch specialist in measurement and
control equipment for the printing industry. The local German newspaper will
further enhance the automation of their press. "It was logical for us to
choose QIPC automation again."
Extra automation
The Cellesche Zeitung currently has a QIPC IRS system
for colour register and cut-off control. The new mRC-3D will also
control sidelay register "This additional automation fits the Cellesche
Zeitung production process best", says Bernhard Schmiedeberg, Sales
Manager at QIPC-EAE. "In the first place this is a substitute investment,
but we have taken the opportunity to add an extra control function", says
Werner Heyer, Site Manager of Cellesche Zeitung, as a reason to choose this
extra automation.
Always reliable
The QIPC IRS system, which the Cellesche Zeitung has used
with great satisfaction in the recent years, is no longer supported. This
necessary replacement is now used to add extra automation. "The IRS system
has always proved to be very reliable," says Werner Heyer. "And so
far, the controls have also been impeccable. It was logical for us to choose QIPC
automation again."
Fast integration
Nine mRC-3D cameras will be installed on the K&B
Colora press in Celle to replace the five IRS cameras. They not only control
the colour register and cut-off control, but also the sidelay register.
"We are counting on a professional and fast integration of the control of
our press," says Werner Heyer.
Future projects
Besides the automation of QIPC, Cellesche Zeitung also
uses the operating systems of Engineering Automation Electronics (EAE), which
is a sister company of QIPC. The alliance between the two companies offers
Cellesche Zeitung extra options for the future. Werner Heyer: "We see good
opportunities for successful future projects."
