ABSTRACT:
A printing press is provided which may be adapted to print in multiple colors on paper or film. The press can then laminate film-to-film, laminate film-to-paper, or apply a PVA adhesive or cold seal adhesive to the substrate in line. The press is provided with a CPU and a plurality of motors each of which drives an individual roller, i.e. a printing station roller, a nip, or the rewind roller, and a plurality of sensors which monitor the speed of the laminate and substrate, the tension of the laminate in substrate in various places. In response to the signals received from the sensors, the CPU individually controls the motors to maintain the printing stations in registry with each other.
