This successful machine system performs impressively across the board thanks to its unique modular design. Label printers around the world trust in the high productivity of Gallus RCS machine systems that help them set quality benchmarks in label printing. What’s more, Gallus has achieved another technical milestone with the RCS 430, thanks to its cutting-edge units for UV offset printing. As a modular inline press...

Exceptional productivity and flexibility for the production of complex labels.

Maximum process flexibility The Gallus RCS 430 harnesses unrivalled application and process flexibility for label printers. The press can handle any substrate with ease – from extremely thin monofoils that are just a few micrometres thick to tube laminates up to 450 micrometres. Fast, straightforward and without separating the web The Gallus RCS 430 supports six printing processes and is thus redefining the future of label printing. Offset printing, flexographic printing, screen printing and hot foil embossing can be easily integrated at any position in the press in a matter of just a few...

Maximum flexibility and quality as regards processes and substrates. A sturdy top rail makes mounting and moving press assemblies extremely easy. Dramatic reduction in setup and changeover times thanks to automation and direct drive technology.

The benchmark for operational efficiency The consistent platform concept, modular design and high degree of automation ensure cost-effective and eco-efficient production to the highest standards in printing quality. When working on repeat orders, the job data memory can be used to call up machine setting data from the main memory as required. Cutting-edge control technology The new generation of Gallus machine systems features the latest control technology and unlocks potential synergies for label printers that are using a range of Gallus machine systems – as you would expect from a...

Automation on top By using Flying Imprint for flexographic printing, operators can change texts and motifs without interrupting production. And, thanks to optimum end-to-end automation, the Gallus RCS 430 supports extremely short job changeover and setup times with minimal waste. The format variability of the Gallus RCS 430 also ensures complete machine flexibility when it comes to printing methods, substrates and job structures. Automation in offset printing The inking and wetting units on the Gallus RCS 430 are driven separately, which means the press can achieve the necessary ink/water...

Leading quality in UV offset printing Using the Gallus RCS 430, label printers can achieve print results to the highest possible quality standard while maintaining the best possible performance in terms of output and cost-efficiency. The robust design, state-of-the-art servo drive technology and intelligent user interface ensure optimum print quality. Thanks to its high degree of automation, the Gallus RCS 430 achieves offset printing results in a quality that matches that of sheetfed offset. Highly reproducible quality Equipped with the latest, configurable servo direct drives, the Gallus...

Unique offset inking and wetting unit The inking and wetting unit of the Gallus RCS 430 incorporates 21 rollers that ensure consistent, outstanding and reproducible printing quality, very short setup times and reduced waste. As in modern sheetfed offset presses, the wetting solution is applied via a separate forme damping-roller. Three inking rollers transfer the ink to the plate cylinder. A bridge roller connects or disconnects the wetting unit to/from the inking unit. It can be applied for rapid inking-up or washing and for printing without the wetting unit (e.g. varnishing of solids)....
