SM74/102 Foam Slow Down Band

Description

The SM74/102 Foam Slow Down Band is an essential component in the paper feeding system of Heidelberg offset printing machines. Designed to regulate paper speed during the feeding process, this foam band ensures smooth and controlled deceleration of sheets, preventing misfeeds and jams that can disrupt production. Its resilient foam material provides consistent friction to guide paper accurately into the printing unit, maintaining operational efficiency in high-volume printing environments.

This spare part is fully compatible with Heidelberg CD102 and SM74 models, featuring a precise 9mm thickness and part number C3.015.653. Engineered to meet original manufacturer specifications, it integrates seamlessly with existing machine configurations, supporting reliable performance across various sheet sizes and paper types used in offset printing.

Regular maintenance involving the replacement of the Foam Slow Down Band is crucial for sustaining peak machine performance. Worn or degraded bands can lead to inconsistent feeding, increasing downtime and potential damage to other components. By incorporating this part into routine servicing schedules, printers can uphold print quality and extend the longevity of their Heidelberg equipment.
