– a defective suction head can slow down the performance of the entire press.
When it comes to wear and tear, the suction head and feeder are the most heavily stressed components in the machine. They contain many moving parts. High friction due to sheet transport, fast radial movement of the rollers and linear direction changes in the suction head can cause the affected parts to deteriorate faster than one might expect.
The wear on a suction head is gradual and is therefore hardly noticed by the press operators. Ultimately, a defective suction head slows down the performance of the entire press.
To counter this, Manroland has developed ServiceKit for wearing parts – it’s especially tailored to the situation of the feeder and the suction head. The package allows for replacements to the problem parts in these two vital areas.
By replacing all wearing parts contained in the package, the assembly is renewed in such a way that your press functions as efficiently as a brand-new machine. The advantages are clearly visible: less sheet stoppers and higher speed, especially for sensitive substrates.
Replacement Suction Head
A replacement suction head is recommended for machines with high mileage and corresponding stress, such as in cardboard processing.
The advantages of a replacement suction head are obvious. Except for a few stationary parts, the suction head will be equipped with the latest parts. The new manroland suction head reflects the highest level of development.
Low machine downtime
The suction head is usually replaced within a few hours. An increase of 1,000 s/h in the machine speed is not unusual after a suction head is replaced. Therefore, the investment pays for itself within a few production days. All ServiceKits are available for the whole ROLAND family including ROLAND 300, ROLAND 500, ROLAND 700 HiPRint, HS, DirectDrive, EVOLUTION, ROLAND 900, XXL presses
Furthermore, the customer can return the removed suction head to the manufacturer. Manroland grants a fixed amount as residual credit.
Conclusion
A replacement suction head is the right investment if you want to increase the efficiency of your machine.
More press for less
Manroland builds high quality, supremely reliable, sheetfed presses that are packed full of leading edge technology. The company’s after-sales support, via its network of over 40 own subsidiaries worldwide, is second to none. It would be of interest to customers that the cost of investment in Manroland sheetfed technology is now a lot less than they might think.
Here’s why…
Manroland reputation for quality, reliability, technology and after-sales support, is well known. In the past this came at a price. Manroland presses were always known as a premium product at a premium price. But taking a closer look at Manroland Sheetfed today will show that its business has been transformed:
- Today Manroand is leaner, more efficient and more responsive than at any time in its near 150 year history.
- Today it is not burdened with disproportionate overhead costs, or with crippling debt and the “fat cats”, with their lavish spending habits, are all gone.
- Today, like you, Manroland spends carefully and invests wisely.
Yet still they produce some of the highest quality, most technologically advanced sheetfed presses available in the world today, only now from a much reduced cost base.
If you haven’t looked at Manroland Sheetfed recently, you could be pleasantly surprised by just how much more press for less Manroland offers.
So why not contact Manroland Sheetfed today and find out.
