Description
The GTO Plate Clamp Knurled Nut is an essential component in the plate clamping system of offset printing machines. Designed with a knurled surface for secure manual tightening, it ensures precise and reliable fixation of printing plates onto the plate cylinder. This nut plays a critical role in maintaining alignment and tension, which directly impacts print registration and overall quality during high-volume production runs.
Compatible exclusively with Heidelberg GTO series machines, this part bears the reference number 42.007.011 and fits within the Printing Unit > Plate Cylinders category. It is engineered to integrate seamlessly with the existing clamp assembly, supporting efficient plate changes without compromising machine performance or operational workflow.
In maintenance routines, the GTO Plate Clamp Knurled Nut requires periodic inspection for wear or damage to prevent slippage or misalignment that could lead to printing defects. Regular replacement as part of cylinder upkeep helps sustain optimal machine reliability and minimizes unplanned downtime in demanding B2B printing environments.
