PräziEdge G3 • Book edge printer
Printer with transport system for books
Ready for despatch in approx. on request
The PräziEdge is an inkjet-based book edge printer designed to produce fine and subtle patterns, high-definition motifs, simple color edges, or wrap-around graphics and photographs with impressive 3D effects directly on the book edge. Once set up (thickness adjustment and height detection via sensor), the entire printing process runs fully automatically. With an optional feeding and stacking system, the machine can be operated highly productively by a single operator.

Advantages
- High Productivity: Up to 2000 prints per hour (500 books with 3 printed edges), even for thick books (mechanical speed is independent of book thickness).
- Automation:
- Automatic book feeder allows book feeding via a conveyor belt (standard length 1.5 m; custom lengths available).
- Machine interconnection enables printing on multiple sides in a single pass (e.g. all three edges) using a specially developed transport unit.
- Automatic stacker ensures organized stacking on a conveyor (standard length 2 m; custom lengths available).
- Flexibility & Versatility:
- Format flexibility: Wide range of printable formats without complex retooling.
- Various surfaces: Compatible with different paper types and coatings.
- Print-on-demand capable: No minimum runs required; economical even for small batches.
- Print Quality
- Resolution: Up to 1200 dpi.
- High-quality pigment inks:
- Smudge resistance: Prints are immediately processable.
- Lightfastness: Long-lasting color stability thanks to pigments.
- Abrasion resistance: Prints withstand mechanical stress and even water contact.
- Color intensity: Adjustable ink density allows for vivid and saturated results.
- Color profiling: Predefined ICC profiles for publishing papers ensure color-accurate output.
- Integrated RIP software: Flexible color management enables direct on-machine adjustments.
- Single-Pass Technology
- Accurate registration: Unlike magazine-based systems, each print is precisely positioned.
