The technology can be broken down into three main components: hybrid drive, single drive with mechanical transmission elements, and single drive with fully integrated direct drive.

Gallus says the advantages that servo drives hold over traditional DC drives are that servo drives are smaller and have a higher dynamic, there is digital feedback from the position to the controller for better register tolerance and adjustments plus preregistering, higher level of synchronisation between different drives in the press via a bus system plus automatic setting of the in tier press, and no wearing of parts in the mechanical drive design.

All up, this technology is said to offer printers reductions in production costs, higher product quality and more turnover.

The three seminars are being held as follows:

November 30 : Sydney – Pier 1 Hotel Walsh Bay
December 2 : Adelaide – Stamford Grand, Glenelg
December 6 : Melbourne – The Sebel Heritage Yarra Valley
