ST 8000

The ST 8000 is the new premium generation of vertical log stackers representing the ideal solution for commercial and high-speed / high-volume gravure presses with up to 120.000 cph. Thanks to state-of-the-art technology, a superior log quality with a wide range of products and formats is guaranteed. The high degree of automation and the large capacity end board magazine significantly reduce the make-ready time to a minimum and optimize the production performance. Like all vertical log stackers, the ST 8000 features complete visual monitoring and easy accessibility of the log building area even during the running production. The space-saving construction allows for ergonomic installation in the press room especially in production environments with two or more stacking lines. With multiple log stackers clearly arranged side-by-side, single-side operation with a minimum of personnel and a maximum of efficiency is guaranteed.
