Lithrone 28 M1/M2 Values

[Kaoticor]

Hello,

I was wondering if any of you could explain in simple terms what exactly the M values are on a Komori Lithrone 28 and what exactly they do, and how they differ from the Ratio? Thanks in advance for posting

The M1 & M2 values are presets for the console. They will do things like set your metering startup speed values,(L= M= H=) amount of kickback when you move the cylinders...etc....

Basically these setting run in the background and are very rarely changed.

The ratio values are the amount your settings (ink and water stroke) change depending on the speed of the press. The faster the press goes.....the higher the settings go depending on your ratio settings.

Hope that helps
