Committing to increase processing speed and enhance flexibility for printers, Heidelberg has announced the worldwide availability of a new system controller for the Digimaster print system product family.
The new V240 SCS (System Control Subsystem), a server-based controller that processes print files and drives the printer, will provide significant benefits for Digimaster users, including increased processor speed to move complex jobs through the Digimaster print system more quickly and a server-based controller for higher reliability and increased uptime.
In addition pre-loaded software reduces installation and system configuration time and storage in a rack-mount cabinet provides easier service access to the controller and will improve cabling organisation.
"The V240 SCS provides a wide range of new processing and printing enhancements for the Digimaster print system.
The controller's increased processing speed and improved design will enable printing customers to achieve higher production, flexibility and reliability than ever before," said Leonard Christopher, vice president of workflow solutions, Heidelberg's Digital Print Solution Centre.
The new SCS platform will provide significant new benefits to Digimaster system customers, including a 1GHz processor speed.
The new V240 SCS features three times the processing speed of its predecessor, enabling the server to process print files more quickly and to move jobs more rapidly through the device.
In addition, support for the Gigabit Ethernet used by many customers enables higher-bandwidth jobs over the Ethernet so they can get to the printer faster.
The new controller has advantages that are inherent in a server-based system, including reliability and availability for increased production.
An optional upgrade kit for all Digimaster 9110 and 9150i print systems will be available to replace the older System Control Subsystems.
The upgrade kit includes Print Production Release 5.02 software.
