Dual Set Point Temperature Controls
Benefits
Outline
The hot plate temperature controls on Kluge presses are available with dual set points. These provide the operator with a standby temperature and a running temperature. This is beneficial when the press is started. As heat is transferred from the die to the paper stock, a higher temperature setting is required to keep the die at a constant working temperature. If this high temperature is maintained when the press is left unattended, such as during a lunch break, the die will usually become so hot that is will scorch the foil. A general solution to this would be to cycle the foil out of the press when it is not in use, however, the die will still retain enough heat to cause a change in quality when the press is again put into continuous production.
The dual set point temperature controllers set with a low standby temperature, automatically changes to the second set point when the press is started, making the transition from standby to operation with minmal effort.
Consistent high quality work can be easily acheived with dual set point temperature controls for the standby temperature and operating temperature settings.
