03.07.2008 - SEGO - Post Press for flexible formats

A true story of success is RIMA-SYSTEM's Post Press installation behind a format-variable 80-page commercial web press at SEGO in Taverny, France.

The new Compacta 818 web press with a format-variable V5 folder ensures the flexible production of various product formats both long grain and short grain paper. To take benefit from all possible production options, the Post Press system has to be flexibly configurable and has to process diverse production formats very fast and stable.

The complete Post Press system was installed by RIMA-SYSTEM and consists of floor and overhead conveyors, one RS 840 double stream trimming line, two RS 36 stackers with direct-coupled RS 110 blocking units, two RS 600 log stackers as well as one RS 400 palletizing cell with two robot arms. The intelligent installation ensures the fast, flexible and efficient palletizing of stacks and logs in consideration of the limited space of the production rooms.  During the step-by-step installation of the finishing line, the flexible configuration allowed to produce on single sections while still setting-up the remaining sections.

Thanks to the reliable and efficient production with flexible formats, the high degree auf automation and the fast set-up, RIMA-SYSTEM was also mandated by SEGO to optimize two existing Post Press lines.
