Streamline your digital newspaper production with Tecnau’s NewsReady™ solution, a modular, high-speed finishing line designed to efficiently cut, stack, fold, and deliver digitally printed newspapers. Ideal for publishers and commercial printers, NewsReady enables economical and flexible finishing directly in-line with your digital press or offline configuration.
The Tecnau NewsReady system includes:
Unwinder u50i – Feeds large paper rolls (up to 52” diameter) for hours of uninterrupted digital printing.
Cutter TC 7000 – Performs precise variable strip cuts, automatic form size changes, and diverts blank or waste sheets automatically.
Accumulator TC 1007 L – Accurately stacks cut sheets into sets for folding.
Folder with Exit Conveyor – Folds stacked sheets into finished newspapers, neatly accumulated and ready for delivery or insertion.
Designed for high-speed digital newspaper finishing (up to 330 ft/min), the NewsReady solution produces 1-up folded booklets that are operator-friendly and ready for immediate distribution. The cutter’s unique cartridge design ensures fast application changeovers and simple on-site maintenance.
This modular Tecnau cut & stack solution can be easily reconfigured for different jobs. For example, run folded newspapers at night with the Accumulator-Folder, then swap modules in the morning for conventional non-folded cut/stack applications—maximizing flexibility without locking you into a single setup.
With compact, scalable components, Tecnau’s NewsReady significantly improves workflow and efficiency, delivering perfectly folded and stacked newspapers for digital print environments.
