Schober exhibited their RSM520 rotary die cutting machine for the production of In Mold Labels at full production speeds of 120,000 labels/hour during DRUPA. This third generation product includes a high-precision star wheel delivery system which ensures the safe and continuous stacking of finished product. Adjustable die setting options for the die module prolong die life and help to cope with material challenges and die wear, making the RSM520 ideal for in mold labels and other discrete labels.
Standard web widths available of 260, 410, 520 for lager format IML 680 mm (10, 16, 20 and 26 inches respectively) can be accommodated, with a maximum roll diameter of 40" can be processed. Pneumatic roll lifting capacity is 440 to 1135 pounds. Die cutting module with high-precision bearing assembly and an innovative “on-the-fly” die to anvil adjustment is included – typical die circumference is 17"– 25". A vacuum generator is included for the vacuum conveyor which collects die-cut labels prior to stacking.
This innovative system unwinds label rolls, die-cuts labels, counts, stacks and delivers (different options available) labels, re-winds waste matrix tension controlled, and is suitable for labels of any size and complexity.
Registration is constantly monitored (customers report + 0.004" contour and a 0.008 die cut to print accuracy) so that a print-to-cut accuracy of .015” is maintained at 95% of production.
Schober representatives report that one of the RSM520 units was sold to Mendel in Wangen, Germany (www.mendel-stanztechnik.de), while another off-line unit was sold to an in-mold label manufacturing plant in Rumania.
