QI Press Controls announces Ipex plans

QI Press Controls says it will demonstrate how its press products can prolong the life of existing kit, challenging the need to invest in new hardware, at Ipex 2010 next month.

The company will demonstrate its range of retrofit products with a sustainability slant at the show, and will aim to prove its claim that the products can add five years to the technical and financial depreciation of web presses.

QI Press Controls said that, for example, the new version of its colour registration and cut-off control product mRC+ using LED lighting can save more than 90% of the energy consumed by its former version.

Other products on show will be the IDS markless closed-loop colour control, the ABD Air Bustle Device for closed-loop fan-out control, and IQM quality management reporting.
