Having been launched at Graph Expo in the US, Tecnau’s new TC 1550 HS PLUS dynamic perforator system is now available in the UK and Ireland through distributor Intelligent Finishing Systems.

Based on the well-established TC 1550 family, which has hundreds of installations worldwide, the new system offers greater production flexibility, a top speed of up to 800 feet per minute, and a corresponding reduction in minimum horizontal perforation repeat lengths, the company said. For the top speed HS PLUS 1 this will be three inches, while the TC 1550 HS PLUS 2 is 1.5 inches and the PLUS 3 is one inch.

‘As with all Tecnau solutions the systems are quiet, accurate and dependable,’ said Dawn Kelley, Digital Solutions sales specialist for IFS, ‘and the best part is that existing Tecnau TC 1550 PLUS customers can field upgrade to the new HS platform to suit their production demands.’

The TC 1550 PLUS HS was showcased at Graph Expo alongside Tecnau’s Stack 2320 cut/stack system, WebVision EXspect quality monitor and the new WebVision PreView remote programming station for inspection, template creation and template publication to multiple WebVision inspection stations.
