The Kluge EHF Series Press takes the standard EHD and raises it to the next level. A stronger main frame, stronger platen bolts and heavier side arms give the press greater impressional strength. Improved side arm design gives the press almost three times the preload pressure. These differences plus improved user-friendly modifications; make the EHF the new standard of the industry.

The EHF features speeds of up to 3,300 impressions per hour, the EHF can accommodate up to 15"x 24.75" (381mm x 629mm) sheets, with up to 40 square inches of die area. Kluge's patented Delayed Dwell technology allows the EHF to start on impression sooner, bottom out, and remain on impression longer­ doubling impression time with no loss of production speed and assuring flawless foil separation from the stock.

All Kluge presses can be supplied with the electrical specification of your country.

• Lightweight Grid-etched Toggle Base with Die Heating Plate - Grid-etched honeycomb design allows for infinite and accurate die mounting positions. Weighs only 14 pounds and includes two heat zones
• Micro Adjustable Gauge Band - Precisely adjust the gauge band for sheet placement
• Lockout Delayed Dwell System - Increase impression time without decreasing operational speed
• Adjustable Impression- Decrease make-ready time. Impression can now be infinitely adjusted with the simple turn of a handle
• Delayed Delivery - With receding stacker table. Will not allow stock greater than 14" to be run on the press
• Dual Set Point Temperature Controls - Provides operator with two temperature setting options - one for standby temperature and one for operating temperature
• Dual Foil Rewind - Provides smooth rewind operations for different, multiple draw lengths or waste foil diameter
• Vacuum Feed Regulator - Regulates the strength of the vacuum for different stock types
• Variable Frequency Drive - Allows you to slow the press down for larger die area coverage
• Central Control Console - Accurately controls the operation of the press
• Variable Speed Control - Control press speed with greater accuracy
• Missed Sheet Detector - Prevents die, make-ready and press damage
• Reversible Register Cam - Saves time in make-ready when adjusting side registration
• Feed Without Impression Control - Allows setup of feed and delivery without risking valuable dies and wasting expensive foil
• Impression counter - Will only count the number of impressions for easy totalling of completed stock
• Rotary Vacuum Pump - Allows independent control of the delivery vacuum
• Auto Lubrication System - Provides hands off worry free lubrication of critical press bearing
• Three-Nozzle Air Blast Foil Release - Separates foil web from the stock for improved product quality and increased productivity (requires separate compressor or air system)
• Complete Guarding with Electric Interlock System - Meets rigorous safety standards yet provides access to press
• Variable Pitch - Feature of the standard Kluge magazine that enables the press to feed stocks of varying thicknesses (e.g. envelopes, single panel pocket folder).

Options

• Hologram Registration Unit - Provides the technology for registering holograms on the EHF
• Overdrive - The press' 'off-cycle' time can be slowed down to the speeds required to accommodate large coverage jobs, without sacrificing productivity
• Mechanical Jogger - Prevents a "saw-toothed" edge on your finished pack
• Preload Magazine - Allows you to reload the press with new stock while the press is running
• Filler Plate - Preserves the hot plate when die cutting
• Wide Magazine Feeder - Increases the feeding capability of the EHD to 26 1/4" wide sheets
• Two-up Feeder - Allows the press to run Two-Up on certain jobs
