5. The Double Facer
from this
to this !

6. Shortpress When did it all start ?
In 1990, the first totally Weight Roll free Double Facer started production at Ondulati Maranello in Italy.
This was called :
Shortpress

7. A True Success Story
Since 1990 over 4,200 Shortpress modules have been installed on more than 560 Double Facers and Pulling Sections.

8. Belt-less Heating Section
More than 50 Shortpress Belt-less installations have been made in different countries around the World.
In the USA, one customer has now converted 15 Corrugators to run Belt-less.

9. Carton Sultana, Mexico

10. Helping our Industry
Shortpress has and still is rewarding customers with massive savings in Paper, Energy and Starch.
The Preferred Heat Transfer System for Mitsubishi Double Facers.

11. So, why develop a new Heat Transfer System ?
Reduce the cost.
Simplify and improve the design.
Increase the performance.
To apply the minimum pressure only where and when needed.
Make it more Operator-friendly.
One system that works perfectly in both Belted and Belt-less applications.

12. A New System is Born

13. Benefits Reduce the cost
Simpler design.
Elimination of expensive control equipment.
Larger surface contact area results in fewer modules being required.
No spares required.
Easy to retrofit.

14. Benefits Simplify the Design
Elimination of :
Air Cylinders
Lift Mechanisms
Compression Springs
Solenoid Valves, etc.

15. TEN INCH WIDE STAINLESS STEEL PLATES

16. Benefits Typical Shoe System
THE BELTS TENDS TO STOP GOOD EVACUATION OF EVAPORATED WATER
SHOES BLOCK OFF THE EDGE OF
THE BOARD AND DAMAGE THE BELT

SHOES ARE RAISED RESULTING

EXAMPLE 2

17. Benefits System 100% COVERAGE RIGHT UP TO THE EDGE OF ANY PAPER WIDTH
UNIQUE PRESSURE PLATE DESIGN

HOT PLATE

18. PLATE RAIL BRACKETS INSIDE EACH MODULE

19. Benefits Increase the Performance
Unique ability to give a ‘Kiss-Touch’ enables very small pressures to be applied on light-weight board.
The ‘Kiss-Touch’ also results in a reduction of Main Drive power consumption resulting in huge cost savings.
The only applies enough pressure where and when it is needed, whether you are producing Super Light-Weight board or Triple -Wall Board.

20. Benefits More Operator Friendly
Easy to clean.
Easy to set up.
Simpler Operator Controls.
Air-pressure adjustment (Patented) gives infinite control.

21. Typical Roll Configuration
4 Rollers in point contact with Belt/Board
Weight of rollers = 60 kg x 4 = 240 Kg
Contact Area = 500 cm²
Stress = Load = 240 = Kg/cm²
Area 500

22. Configuration Air pressure to deliver the same ‘load’ Weight = 240 kg
Contact Area = 60x250 = 15,000 cm²
Stress = Load = = Kg/cm²
Area 15,000
‘Stress’ on the board reduced by 96.7%

23. Even the best Hot Plates Deflect
The guarantees to follow even the smallest amount of deflection in any make of Hot Plate with the minimum amount of pressure being applied to the board.
This is very important whether you are producing Super Light-Weights or Super Heavy-Weights !
