SF-Bender

NELA SF-Bender für Bogendruck

The SF-Bender is a device that has been specifically designed for the needs of sheet-fed printers. The plates are registered by means of an electronically controlled stop pin system that matches with the stop system of the Ctp-line, providing perfect print quality. 

The SF-Bender bends the plates according to the requirements defined by the press manufacturer, and it is possible to bend several plate formats with the same bending configuration. A second bending configuration can be integrated upon request.

The bending system can be combined with any Ctp-system to create a fully automatic and economic plate processing line. The basic package includes an infeed conveyor and a single position stacker with plate cart that stacks the plates without scratching. Custom-designed conveyors and additional stackers for automated plate sorting are also available from NELA, making the SF-Bender a solid and flexible choice for the automation of your plate production.

Your advantage: efficient and cost-saving plate production by eliminating manual handling – no more scratching of plates!
