TWINStar – Compact register control for highest precision

eltromat TWINStar

TWINStar is a compact, modular register control system for up to two controls. It ensures maximum register accuracy and first-class print quality - just the right choice for special register solutions. For example, the insetting of pre-printed material or, as with CI flexo or digital printing presses, the control of downstream or processing units.
The simple “one click - one view” operating concept of TWINStar is particularly noteworthy. It allows you to see all important information at a glance.

Description

In an industry where precision, efficiency, and flexibility are crucial, eltromat TWINStar offers the ultimate solution for modern printing and converting requirements. The system combines state-of-the-art register control, and intuitive operation for stable and efficient production with outstanding results.

The adaptive fiber optic RSH sensor reliably detects even extremely low-contrast, metallized, or transparent coatings. Fully automatic scanning technology and a combination of web-to-web and web-to-cylinder measurement methods enable optimum accuracy with minimal waste. The modern touchscreen interface enables “one view - one click” operation and ensures clear visibility and full control at all times. Functions such as RegiChart (register trend display) and RegiTouch (semi-automatic presetting) provide valuable process insights and support the sustainable production process.

With a wide range of functions, such as insetter control, TWINStar is the perfect solution for your requirements.

Perfect for these industries

BST has been a trusted partner to the printing and packaging industry from the very beginning. Our systems support all major printing processes: flexo, gravure, offset, digital, and hybrid. Also they are used in a wide range of applications from food to pharma. With proven technology and decades of experience, we ensure stable production, consistent quality, and seamless integration into existing workflows.

High web speeds and intermittent printing processes are often required in narrow web / label printing. This includes anything from pharma codes on medication bottles to automobile and electronic device labels. Tight installation spaces and system costs also play a decisive role. As always, the goal is to achieve the best possible print result.
