The JSVE series has a drive system with an electric motor, driven on the lower roller. The gear-wheels are protected with a steel cover. The hard synthetic plate runs between adjustable guide strips, mounted on the solid steel frames. The pressure springs are found under the upper roller. If the spindles are loosened the upper roller is raised by spring pressure. This results in a space appearing between the upper roller and the bed, thus facilitating the sliding of the printing sandwich. This feature makes this press also very suitable for lino and woodcut printing. Shims of leather or card board can be placed under the spindles thus providing more flexibility during printing (useful when printing woodcuts, to compensate a little bit the irregularities in the wood).The basic design of these electric presses is taken from the JSV-series, with the following changes and features;
- driven by electric motor, 230 V, 0,75 kW, single speed. An electric motor for 110 V can be supplied.
- control panel features, left, right and a highlighted stop button.
- safety guard on both sides of the upper roller, keeps fingers away from roller. This safety guard is made of a small plastic roller, over the width of the bed. This roller rests on the bed and will lift when necessary for the passage of the plate and paper.
- motor automatically shuts off at both ends of bed (micro-switches).
These presses can be delivered with two sorts of under frames; with or without casters. The frames are detachable and made of steel tubes. De casters have breaks, wheels of nylon 5" diameter which makes moving the press easy. The under frames can be fitted with a shelf.
