ROFO 450
The ultimate solution for
narrow web.
The Advantages
Custom-tailored solutions are possible due to the modular
construction principle of the ROFO 450. It can be
supplied either as an offline version including its own
substrate unwind and rewind devices, or as an inline
version to be integrated into all current and established
narrow web printing presses.
The substrate web running direction is from left to right as
viewed from the operator control desk.
1. Up to 18’000 strokes/hour or up to 150 m/min.
The Gietz ROFO 450 allows very high speeds up to
18’000 strokes/hour or up to 150 m/min / 492’/min;
the final production speed depends upon the substrate
and the foil, together with the printing and stamping
image.
2. Large stamping surface
The Gietz ROFO 450 has a maximum stamping area of
430 x 609.6 mm / 16.9” x 24”. This large stamping area
with repeat lengths of up to 609.6 mm / 24” increases
the possibilities of integration into existing systems (inline
version). With both the inline and the offline version this
also enables a larger range of product applications.
3. Unique stamping force
With a maximum stamping force of 130 metric tons (143
US tons) the Gietz ROFO 450 offers nearly unlimited
possibilities for combination stamping foiling/embossing,
embossing/debossing, flat stamping etc. Furthermore,
the machine allows individual pressure settings by control
columns (e.g. more pressure at operator side and
less at drive side or more at press entry and less at press
exit).
4. From narrow foil to large foil / Foil saving program
The Gietz ROFO 450 is able to handle narrow foil webs
from 25 mm / 1” up to 440 mm / 17.3” in longitudinal
running direction, as well as up to 610 mm / 24”
if the foil is run transversely across the web. Moreover,
the machine is equipped with a foil saving program to
avoid any unnecessary foil consumption.
5. Up to four foil feeds
The machine can be equipped with up to 4 foil feeds
(standard machine 1). This increases the application
possibilities and helps to reduce unnecessary foil consumption.
6. Rotating foiling unit
The machine is equipped with a foiling unit which can
be rotated through 90 degrees, which allows foils to be
run either in line with or transverse to the substrate web
running direction. Furthermore, the web substrate pull
lengths can be divided, allowing several stamping and/or
embossing/debossing production processes to be made
in one pass.
7. High performance VACUFOIL transportation system
The patented VACUFOIL foil transportation system makes
it possible to use large diameter foil reels (up to 400 mm
on a 76 mm core / 15.7” on a 3” core) at maximum
production speed – and with maximum full foil advance
over the complete foiling area - without any limitation to
the running performance.
8. Unique substrate feeding device
The dedicated substrate feeding device incorporated in
the ROFO 450 allows integration of the system at various
positions in all kinds of web-fed systems: the system can
run with rotary , semi rotary, or combination drive web
presses.
9. Technology for positioning of holograms
For the application of registered single-image holograms
or registered / unregistered stripes for the high security
and brand protection industries. Gietz is a well-established
and proven supplier of industry leading technologies
in this field.
10. Core competence and service life
Gietz machines are first and foremost designed as foil
stamping and embossing systems. User experiences with
more than 600 machines worldwide have been consistently
incorporated and integrated into their design
and improvement. A Gietz is a Gietz: it foils stamps and
embosses giving the highest quality, often for more than
20 years before requiring the first overhaul.
11. Price / Performance ratio
The very highest stamping quality, maximum production
speed, extremely long service life and reliability. A Gietz
machine is well worth its price.
12. Top products for professionals
Foil stamping machines from Gietz are recognized by
printers worldwide as industrial leading products from
professionals for professionals.

Technical Features
Up to 18‘000 strokes / hour or up to 150 m / min. and unique
stamping force of 130 metric tons (143 US tons)
The Gietz ROFO 450 allows very high production speeds
and a unique stamping force which makes the system with
his broad portfolio unique in the narrow web industry.
Large stamping surface
With a maximum stamping area of 430 x 609.6/
16.9” x 24” the system allows a huge range of application
possibilities as well as a large spectrum of machinery
where the system could be integrated.
Rotatable foiling unit
The machine is equipped with a rotatable foiling unit
which allows running the foil(s) either in web direction
or transverse to the web direction.
Four foil feeds
The machine can be equipped with up to 4 foil feeds as
well as 4 foil webs spread on two levels. This increases
the application possibilities and helps to reduce unnecessary
foil consumption. The systems handle foil web
widths from 25 mm / 1” up to 440 mm / 17.3” respectively
610 mm / 24”.

Technical Features
High performance VACUFOIL transportation system
The patented VACUFOIL foil transportation system makes
it enable a full foil advance over the complete foiling
area - without any limitation to the running performance.
Another highlight is the handling of large foil diameters
of up to 400 mm / 15.7” on 3” cores. Very small foil
webs will be perfectly guided by lateral foil web discs.
Individually pressure settings
Beside the unique stamping force of 130 metric tons
(143 US tons) the machine allows individual pressure
settings by columns (e.g. more pressure at OS and less
at DS or more at press entry and less at press exit).
Easy setting of the counterparts
The Gietz ROFO 450 assures an easy setting of counterparts
without any disconnection of the substrate web.
A further advantage is the easy and perfect make-ready
possibilities underneath the counter plate.
Technology for positioning of holograms
For the application of registered single-picture holograms
or registered/unregistered stripes for the security
industry, Gietz is a well-established and proven supplier
of industry leading technologies.
