Expanding Your Capabilities: Applications & Tools

Thompson-Boyd IOC: Print, Die-Cut & Finish in a Single Pass

 

Eliminate costly, time-consuming offline finishing and revolutionize your workflow. With the Thompson-Boyd Inline Offset Cutting (IOC) system, you can print, die-cut, perforate, and crease in a single, seamless operation—directly on your offset press.


Our system uses chemically-etched, machined, flexible dies fitted with mounting bars specific to your press. This allows you to produce the highest quality finished products at normal press speeds, slashing turnaround times and increasing profitability. For repeat jobs, the die is ready for immediate use, saving you even more time.

The PPP system is designed for simplicity and precision.

  1. Mount the Foil: Mount the PPP-Foil just as you would a regular blanket.
  2. Install the Base: Place the PPP-Base Set underneath the foil to compensate for cylinder undercut and tighten to specifications.
  3. Apply the Tools: Adhere the self-adhesive tools (perforating rules, dies, etc.) directly onto the foil's integrated millimeter grid for perfect placement.
  4. Protect the Cylinder: Apply the self-adhesive PPP-Protection Plate to the impression cylinder.
  5. Set Pressure & Run: Back off the impression pressure slightly more than the paper thickness. After running a few test sheets, increase the pressure in small increments until a perfect result is achieved.

Core System Components

Effortless Installation & Operation

Advanced Applications: Spot Ink & Coat Transfer

 

  • PPP-Base Foil: This high-tech foil is the foundation of the system. Its integrated millimeter grid provides a clear view for precise tool placement directly in the press. Each foil is supplied ready for use, with specifications matched to your individual press and blanket bars.


  • PPP-Base Set: Installed under the Base Foil, this set is custom-made for each press to guarantee perfect die-cutting and perforation results. The materials are selected for the correct hardness, and the components are supplied as a single unit to prevent slipping, even after repeated use.

Customizing Your Workflow: Specialty Applications & Accessor

Unlock Advanced Capabilities: Spot Ink & Varnish Transfer

 The versatility of the Perf Print Plus (PPP) system extends beyond standard finishing, empowering you to bring high-value specialty work in-house with unparalleled efficiency. 

Unlock Advanced Capabilities: Spot Ink & Varnish Transfer

Partial Ink Transfer

Bring complex and high-margin ink applications, such as envelope printing, directly onto your offset press. The PPP system allows for the precise, controlled transfer of specialty inks like aromatics, metallics, and scratch-off inks. This in-line process drastically reduces production costs and lead times. For repeat jobs, the prepared foil and tools can be stored together, allowing for immediate and effortless setup in the future.

Spot Coat (Varnish) Transfer

Apply spot varnish and coatings with unmatched speed. By using a self-adhesive blanket on the PPP-Foil, you eliminate the need for costly, separate coating plates and prevent all wear and tear on your expensive standard press blankets. This simple, in-line solution minimizes downtime and maximizes profitability on any job requiring a spot finish.
