Calipap
Calipap offers calibrated underpacking/press tape solutions for blanket calibration, supporting the basic adjustment of the press with millimeter precision. Correct underpacking establishes contact balance, shortens set-up time, and produces repeatable results. With different thickness and application options, it allows you to quickly achieve the correct adjustment in every job. The result: fewer adjustments, less waste, more stable production.

How to choose the correct thickness for pressboard (underpacking/pressboard)?
The purpose of pressbanding is to control printing pressure and contact balance by bringing the under-blanket packing to the target value; this affects set-up time, dot gain, and production stability. The correct choice is to establish a combination that meets the machine/job-based packing needs rather than a “single thickness” (e.g., finer values for small adjustments, thicker options for larger adjustments).
What are the practical advantages of color-coded press tape in the field, and how does it affect print quality?
Color coding enables rapid and accurate thickness differentiation in the field; it prevents packaging with the wrong thickness, reducing rework/setup cycles. When packaging is set up correctly, contact becomes more balanced; this translates into stable printing, more consistent dot behavior, and more controlled process management, especially in long runs.
