We supply advanced motion control solutions for the printing and paper converting industry, supporting OEMs and system integrators with both ready-to-use platforms and fully customised hardware and software systems.
Our solutions are designed to meet the sector’s demanding requirements for precision, productivity, waste reduction, print quality, and operational flexibility.
By combining high-performance motion hardware with dedicated control software, we enable reliable and repeatable control of complex, multi-axis printing and converting machines.
High-Precision Motion Control for Printing Applications
In printing and converting machinery, accurate control of printing cylinders and material handling axes is critical. Our motion control solutions focus on two key processes that directly impact print quality and efficiency:
Synchronisation
Precise synchronisation ensures that all printing cylinders and axes operate in perfect harmony, even at high line speeds. This guarantees smooth material flow, consistent print output, and stable machine operation across the entire production process.
Registration Control
Advanced registration control enables accurate print alignment across multi-axis systems. Real-time correction and fine positioning ensure consistent print quality, reduced setup time, and minimal material waste.
Flexible Hardware Architectures
Our motion control systems support a range of brushless and stepless drive technologies, allowing machine builders to select the most suitable solution for their application.
Hardware configurations can be implemented as:
Integrated solutions within the machine architecture
Nearby drive installations for improved accessibility
Stand-alone control units for modular machine designs
This flexibility enables precise multi-axis control while supporting compact layouts and simplified maintenance.
Dedicated Motion Software & Libraries
Dedicated motion control libraries provide OEMs and system integrators with powerful tools to develop high-performance printing and paper converting machines.
These libraries simplify complex motion tasks such as synchronisation, registration, and tension control, while allowing extensive customisation to suit specific machine requirements.
The result is:
Faster machine development
Reduced engineering and commissioning effort
Consistent, repeatable machine performance
