The HELIOSTAR SE was created to accommodate smaller jobs,
which require frequent change-overs. The press‘s fully automatic print
cylinder change addresses the need for quick-changeovers by eliminating
conventional manual change-over procedures. The heart of this
development is an automatic cylinder change cart docked directly in
front of the print decks that enables simultaneous cylinder changes on
all decks.
Another feature that increases up-time efficiency of the HELIOSTAR SE
is the TURBOCLEAN inking and wash-up system. TURBOCLEAN has
been a successful and proven component on W&H flexographic presses
for years.
The combination of fully automatic impression cylinder changes and
TURBOCLEAN will significantly shorten job change-overs on gravure
presses. This will result in savings of ink, substrate and solvents.
Printers will see not only cost-effective short run production, but also
new possibilities to improve sustainability in their production processes.
W&H will present the HELIOSTAR SE and its innovative technology
on an 8 color model at W&H‘s in-house EXPO. The press has a print
width of 1.300 mm (51.24”), runs at maximum speeds of 350 m/min
(1,450 ft/min) and comes with EASY-SYNC (pre-register system),
HELIOCONTROL (register controller) and VISCOCONTROL (viscosity
controller) in addition to the automation modules. These are integrated
into the machine controls, in contrast to customary modules.

This guarantees optimal interaction between press and modules, easy
and comprehensive online diagnostics, and above all, a way of
displaying the functions of the modules on the central operator panel,
that fits seamlessly into the operating concept of the machine and
enables easy, intuitive operation.
The user friendliness carries over to conventional modules, e.g. doctor
blades and dryer nozzles, that can now be installed and removed without
tools and in just a few simple steps.
W&H offers package printers top-quality gravure printing presses
with working widths from 800 to 1700 mm and a variety of automation
modules for virtually any application in flexible packaging. These
include the HELIOSTAR G (600 m/min) along with the HELIOSTAR S
series (SL, SH and SE).
Windmöller & Hölscher is a leader in the design, manufacture and
distribution of flexographic and gravure printing presses, blown and
cast film extrusion systems, multiwall equipment, plastic sack and bag
making machines, as well as form-fill-seal machinery for the converting
and packaging industry.
