Color to Color Register
The Color to Color Register system (CCR) automatically controls color to color register throughout the entire press run. CCR adjusts register during make readies and after restarts, speed changes, splice cycles, and blanket washes. Featuring a high speed imaging system and the industry's smallest register marks, CCR reduces paper waste while delivering high quality registered print.Closed Loop Control
A high speed imager (one per surface) scans the moving web for the target, recognizes it, and locks on. Because the system views and measures the target as a composite image, it's accuracy is not compromised by web movement. Up to three times per second, the processor measures the geometric center of each target dot, calculates mis-register based on dot-to-dot relationships, and signals the press register motors to simultaneously move all plate cylinders laterally and circumferentially.

Color CCD Imager
The highly accurate imaging system uses 40x magnification to deliver a precision target image. The system automatically seeks, scans, and locks on the target without the operator, even from a cold start. The imaging sensors are not affected by target size variations due to dot gain, blanket soil, inconsistent dampening, and plate wear.

Microdot Target
The target is composed of two microdots per color, each measuring 0.012" (0.03 mm) in diameter. An entire four color target fits into a 0.0602" (1.52mm) area. With minimal clear space requirements, target placement is nearly unlimited.
