This Heidelberg SM 52-2 is a used one-color press — also known as a single-color offset press — built for commercial offset lithographic printing. Heidelberg is one of the world's most established manufacturers of sheetfed printing equipment, supplying presses and finishing machinery to commercial printers, packaging producers, and print service providers across the globe.
Manufactured in 1996 and currently located in Lithuania, this machine carries a counter reading of 68 million impressions. It accepts a maximum sheet size of 370 × 520 mm and a minimum of 105 × 145 mm, with a maximum image area of 360 × 520 mm. Running speed reaches 15,000 sheets per hour, and power consumption is rated at 13.5 kW. The press has an approximate weight of 4,800 kg and occupies a footprint of 2,860 mm in length, 1,850 mm in width, and 1,620 mm in height.
The machine is equipped with Alcolor automatic film dampening, a system widely regarded for consistent and reliable ink-water balance during production runs. Plate changes are assisted by Autoplate, a semi-automatic plate loader that reduces makeready time between jobs. An automatic blanket and ink roller wash unit is fitted, streamlining cleanup between runs and helping to maintain consistent print quality. A powder sprayer is also included, used to prevent ink setoff on freshly printed sheets as they are delivered and stacked.
