Solna quality philosophy Sweden is well known for its state of the art technology. Companies like Volvo, Ericsson and other famous Swedish companies are world leading in their segments. Same technology is valid when designing Solna products. Swedish manufacturing is built on the latest state of the art machinery when producing parts. Quality systems ensure that the quality standards are kept on the highest level. All this ensures that when Solna products is designed and manufactured, the products will keep the highest standard that Sweden is famous for. Swedish quality steel are used in the products when it comes to critical parts as side frames, cylinders and gear wheels. No effort is saved for making the Solna products to live up to the high Swedish standard. MultiRange bearerless design for best print quality High print quality is a major reason for the success of the Solna D280/D300. Most presses have bearers to eliminate vibrations caused by cylinder gap meetings and to provide a constant pressure between the blanket cylinders. Bearers mean that a change of paper stock requires a change of all underpackings to keep a high print quality. A common feature of all Solna web offset presses is the bearerless design with MultiRange. This feature was developed by Solna in the 1950 s and was for many years a unique Solna feature. Thanks to its many benefits, the bearerless design is now being introduced by other manufactures but Solna claim a leading position, with the back-up from more than almost 60 years of experience. The Solna bearerless design allows you to quickly switch between jobs with different web thickness. By turning the MultiRange dial you promptly adjust the impression to achieve perfect dot transfer on different paper qualities. This feature lets you take on jobs that other printers, with ordinary newspaper presses, cannot produce. In addition, the absence of bearers means short, strong cylinder journals, which reduce vibration and increase print quality. The Solna MultiRange system saves time and brings in new business. The bearerless design and the MultiRange dial permit quick changeovers between jobs, keeping perfect dot transfer on all paper grades. 4 solna_d280_d300_ 4 05-10-07, 15.22
The Solna Lever Ink Fountain When using manual ink fountains, the Solna lever ink fountain cuts down the time required for ink zone adjustment, which leads to a quicker and more efficient make-ready process. The large reductions in waste are results of the improved setting of lever ink fountains. The visual position of the ink levers distinctly shows the amount of ink in each zone of the fountain. 90% of the ink setting can be done before the press has started printing. After start-up, optimal ink setting is achieved by a few minor adjustments, unlike the costly trial and error approach necessary with conventional ink fountains. The Solna lever Ink Fountain is the best lever ink box on the market. By presetting the ink levels, make-ready time is significantly shortened. Time savings are noticeable when preparing the press for half-webs. With at lever device, half of the fountains can be shut off in only a few seconds, a fraction of the time needed to adjust conventional ink fountains. Design policy for cylinder bearings Bearings for cylinders in Solna products are chosen with the highest demands on life length, precision and minimum play. Only the best manufactures like SKF in Sweden are chosen to be the supplier of bearings for Solna products. Bearings are built in a sturdy design to give the highest dot quality possible. In assembly, high precision instruments is used to ensure highest possible accuracy when assembly the bearings. Solna s collaboration with world leading manufacturer of bearings has given the products highest possible standard of bearings. 5 solna_d280_d300_ 5 05-10-07, 15.22
