The Pacesetter 2200 and 2500 models deliver 22,000 and 25,000 books per hour respectively and feature servo-driven components, including newly designed hoppers that are easy to reposition within a system or among multiple systems, Goss says.
Both saddlestitchers are available with up to 40 horizontal or vertical hoppers, and can be equipped with a new high-speed Goss flying trimmer or Ferag SNT-U trimmer.
Pacesetter 2200 systems operate with a single stitcher, while Pacesetter 2500 systems use a dual stitcher to achieve the higher output.
Toby Clarke, vice president of print finishing operations for Goss International says the company has built on its proven servo technology that was pioneered with its Pacesetter 1100 stitchers to redesigned the new systems.
These systems have increased speed, expanded product format range and have improved the signature transport and control components. They’ve also made setups faster and the overall operation easier.
The interchangeable, servo-driven hoppers are a vital feature of the Pacesetter 2200 and 2500 systems. With the elimination of mechanical drives, operators can exchange or reposition a hopper quickly.
A new design for the stitcher chain and transport belts feature a common servo drive to ensure constant phasing. Goss single and dual stitchers accommodate variations in book thickness automatically and are also servo driven to allow independent phasing and smooth product transition to delivery.
Pacesetter 2200 and 2500 saddlestitchers can be equipped with the JDF compatible Goss Omniflex system to control selective content, inkjet personalisation and distribution.
