The Company
Xerox Corporation (NYSE:XRX) is a $15.7 billion technology
and services enterprise that helps businesses deploy smart
document management strategies and find better ways to work.
Its intent is to constantly lead with innovative technologies,
products and solutions that customers can depend upon to improve
business results.
The Problem
The DocuColor iGen3 is aimed at the high-end digital printing
market and is intended to compete with traditional offset
printing. It is also designed to meet all of a company’s
needs for high volume, short-run, full-color, on-demand, personalized
printing. The printing system uses what it calls SmartPress
Imaging, a patented third-generation imaging technology with
closed loop controls, to produce up to 6,000 impressions (A4
letter) per hour with quality that is unsurpassed in digital
printing.
The DocuColor iGen3 system offers true production capabilities,
including a 10,000 sheet feeding capacity from up to four
bins, and the ability to print a wide array of stocks and
sheet sizes at rated speeds. The ability to mix up to four
stocks in a single run and deliver collated offset stacks
is intended to bring a new level of productivity to a print
shop. Moreover, the system monitors every print job and dynamically
adjusts critical system parameters, from feeding to stacking
to color consistency. As you can imagine, moving 10,000 sheets
of mixed stock paper at feed rates of up to 6,000 sheets per
hour calls for precise speed and positioning feedback information,
and that’s where EPC comes in.
The Solution
After extensive testing, the manufacturer selected the
workhorse Model 755A as the standard encoder for this truly
state of the art printing system. If accuracy and reliability
are important to you, the 755A is the encoder of choice.
