Plate & Tape Demounter Features & Benefits
Caractéristiques
The Heaford Plate & Tape Demounter range has been designed to improve sleeve preparation workflows by providing a fast, efficient and operator-friendly solution for plate and tape removal and application. By driving plates from sleeves rather than pulling them manually, the system significantly reduces the risk of plate damage while helping converters minimise replacement costs and production downtime.
Designed with both operational efficiency and operator safety in mind, the demounter helps eliminate repetitive strain injury risks associated with manual plate removal while reducing dependency on operator skill or experience. Its dual-purpose functionality enables both plate and tape removal alongside tape application, creating a streamlined and consistent sleeve preparation workflow with a rapid return on investment.
Caractéristiques
The Heaford Plate & Tape Demounter range is designed to accommodate a variety of sleeve sizes and flexographic production requirements. The system supports sleeve widths up to 1000mm, 1500mm, 1800mm and 2200mm, alongside printing repeats ranging from 260mm to 1250mm (10.25” to 49”).
A rubber roller system distributes force evenly across the full plate width to support smooth and damage-free plate removal, while an integrated pressure roller secures the sleeve throughout the demounting process. A full-width foot pedal enables easy sleeve rotation with minimal operator effort, supporting efficient and ergonomic operation.
Possibilités
The Plate & Tape Demounter can also be equipped with cone systems to facilitate efficient tape application and further streamline sleeve preparation workflows.
Its versatile design enables converters to tailor the system to their operational requirements while maintaining dependable plate handling, reduced plate damage and improved production efficiency.
