C.P. Bourg developed a bridge to enable In-Line connectivity in between KODAK NEXFINITY or NexPress Digital Sheet-Fed Presses Series and C.P. Bourg print finishing solutions.
The Bourg Bridge is not necessary if the print output height of the production press to which you want to connect Bourg print finishing equipment is 860 mm (33.85 in). This is for example the case of the Kodak Digimaster Series.
Let the Bourg Box included in the bridge do the work for you: instructions for incoming jobs are converted in the pre-press software into an electronic JDF/JMF job ticket. When the Print Manager submits the job to the Kodak press, it sends the corresponding JDF/JMF job ticket to the Bourg Box. The Bourg Box then translates those instructions for the connected Bourg BM-e and other print finishing equipment (BSF and/or BPM).
Specifically designed to adapt the height of the input module to the height of your KODAK NEXFINITY or NexPress Digital Sheet-Fed Press, this bridge is compatible with the Bourg Sheet Feeder (BSF), the Bourg Booklet Maker (BM-e) and the Bourg Preparation Module (BPM).
This Bourg bridge matches the paper speed between your KODAK NEXFINITY or NexPress press and C.P. Bourg print finishing modules without slowing down the printing and finishing performances.
This Bourg bridge has a small footprint and is easy to install.

Incoming paper velocity | Adjustable based on printer ppm mode: 83 ppm = 375mm/s ; 100 ppm = 450mm/s; 120ppm = 541mm/s. All velocities at +/- 1%. Speed selection by means of DFA C6/ C7 coding. Speed change only effective at subsequent cycle up. |
Paper weight | Coated: 80 to 350 gsm Uncoated: 60 to 350 gsm |
Paper thickness | 0,05 to 0,40 mm (0.001 to 0.01 in) (single sheet) |
* In summary, this bridge is not a source of any limitations. It handles all sheet sizes/weights/number of layers that can be treated by both KODAK NEXFINITY or NexPress Digital Sheet-Fed Presses Series and the connectable Bourg print finishing modules. |
