Positioning System CPX

For the quick, efficient and exact positioning of Clichés/Dies, KAMA offers the new CPX positioning system. Clichés are mounted with high register accuracy on the mounting plate in a single step. This saves time and money. The system calculates the exact target position, which is already temperature-corrected, for a quick, targeted positioning of the clichés on the mounting plate. Another advantage of this method is that because the clichés are positioned outside of the stamping machine, the machine is able to process another job in the meantime. The CPX is suitable for any positioning work concerning orders with hot foil, hologram and blind embossing, as well as for the setting of die-cutting tools.
The KAMA cliché positioning system (models CPX 74 and CPX 105) can be fitted to all KAMA ProCut die-cutters and is also adaptable to other flatbed stamping systems.

Benefits

• Saving in set-up time – Quick cliché mounting at highest register accuracy outside the cutting machine
• Precise positioning – The CPX reads the work files directly, computes the target position and indicates it on the monitor. The actual cliché position recorded by a camera is laid on top on the monitor without shades
• Easy to operate – The clichés are mounted to the indicated target position is one step. Thermal expansion of mounting plate and clichés is calculated and compensated for automatically
• Versatility – For any positioning work on hot foil and hologram stamping modules, magnetic plates, hot cut systems and universal chases.
