Reel Tension Paster Upgrades

Publishers faced with diminishing advertising dollars and increased costs must find new ways to offset these issues. Due to the paste process and its accompanying moves in registration, RTPs are a significant source of waste. Additionally, many RTPs are based on obsolete, single-source parts that are no longer available.

With Brock's RTP replacement solutions for both TKS and Goss pasters, it is not uncommon to experience an increase of 7,000 to 10,000 copies per hour, along with a 20-30% decrease in overall waste. The Brock RTP controls are a totally new innovative design, NOT just replacement parts, and provide the following results:

• Elimination of obsolete components
• Improved registration as waste is reduced through precise tension control
• Accurate speed match using AC drives and standard motors, while eliminating brake, clutch, and magnetic pickup
• Significantly reduced missed pastes due to detection of component or operator failures
• Time-stamped logging of all paste events, allowing "post mortem" analysis of missed pastes
