CSF Mk III

The CSF III machine is used to quickly apply foil or holographic images to a variety of documents. A robust commercial hot foiling machine utilising a state of the art Programmable Logic Control system and mechanical impression mechanism which can apply up to 30,000 kg's of pressure. The machine has been developed with high output production in mind. Designed to be used to stamp continuous pack to pack stationery and continuous reel to reel web in stand-alone or fully integrated versions, the 508 CSF/WF can meet most production needs.

Applications

the CSF press is ideal for the application of foil and security features onto documents of value such as: Cheques, Gift Vouchers, Event Tickets, Travel Tickets, Certificates, Shares, Passports, Licences Money Orders.

Versatility

the press is extremely versatile and can be configured for: Foil Blocking, Foil Embossing, Applying Registered Holograms, Applying Wallpaper Holograms, Applying Securigrafix® Features, Applying Datafoil®, Blind Embossing, Die Cutting / Creasing.

Foil Control System

the key to the efficient application of hot stamping foils. SF SERVICES has developed many unique software and hardware features that are incorporated into the press. These features have been developed in our Group foil blocking factories.

Foil Pull Through

the foil pull through assembly can accommodate up to four foil rewind units. Each of the foil pull through units features a microprocessor control, allowing five different pull lengths with up to 99 repeats of each length per program. Complex foil advance programs can be entered into the computer to cope with the most demanding foil layouts. The units can be programmed to achieve “step-ins” even when running registered image holograms.

Foil Pull Speed

is automatically minimised offering excellent foil control. There is also a foil counter on each foil pull to tell the operator how many impressions are left before the foil runs out, so increasing operator efficiency.

Other Features

include automatic “no sheet” cut-out, which ensures that the machine does not make an impression if there is no sheet present, avoiding damage to the make-ready and dies.
