This Heidelberg OHT is a letterpress machine — sometimes referred to as a platen press — dating from 1964 with serial number 149218 N. Letterpress equipment of this type applies controlled impression pressure to transfer inked type or dies onto a substrate, and is widely used for both traditional printing and die-cutting applications. Heidelberg is one of the most recognised names in the printing industry, with a long history of manufacturing precision press equipment used in commercial print shops and packaging operations worldwide.
The machine handles sheet sizes from a minimum of 40 × 70 mm up to a maximum of 260 × 380 mm, covering a broad range of small-format work. The standard chase measures 260 × 340 mm, while a skeleton chase of 260 × 350 mm is also included, giving the operator flexibility across different job types. Operating speed ranges from 2,200 sheets per hour at the low end to 5,500 sheets per hour at maximum, making it well suited to both short careful runs and higher-volume production.
The machine is offered complete with its full complement of tools, accessories, and closing frame, meaning it is ready to be put to work without sourcing additional ancillary equipment. It is held in stock in Emskirchen, near Nuremberg, Germany, available for immediate inspection and test running.
