The RYOBI 520X/520HX
Expanding Print Shop Capabilities by
Enhancing Productivity and Flexibility
Rotary Type Stream Feeder
The rotary type stream feeder ensures stable, smooth and
high-speed paper feeding. This versatile mechanism can
reliably handle a wide range of paper stock, ranging from
0.04 mm (0.0016'') onion skin to 0.5 mm (0.02") card
stock.
High-Speed Infeed Mechanism
(underswing and drop-away front lay)
The simple, accurate movement of the underswing infeed
system and drop-away front lays guarantee precise sheet
alignment and transfer, while the cam-closed type sheet
grippers ensure firm sheet grip. These reliable infeed
mechanisms guarantee precise registration-even during
high-speed printing at 13,000 sheets per hour.

Flat-Type Operation Panel Simplifies Control
Operation panels at both the feeder and delivery sides of the
press increase press control efficiency. A flat panel design
concentrates control of vital mechanisms in a user-friendly
layout to allow a single operator to run the press with ease.
Convenient Production Button
One push of the production button from the delivery side starts
the press operation-from activating pumps and starting
printing to gradual acceleration to the desired press speed.
Front/Side Lay Register Controller
A front/side lay register controller comes as standard
equipment to allow operators to simply push buttons to
make micro adjustments in the image position. From the
delivery side, the operator can quickly adjust the registration

Flexibility for a Variety of Paper Sizes
The RYOBI 520X/520HX can handle a wide range of paper
sizes-from a minimum of 100 x 150 mm (3.9" x 5.9'')
postcard up to a maximum of 520 x 375 mm (20.47" x
14.76''). And an integrated feeder board roller movement
system and paper size change button allow quick and easy
resetting of paper guides for different stock sizes.
Quick Plate Mounting
The RYOBI 520X/520HX come equipped with an plate
automatically stops the plate cylinder at the position where
the printing plate is easiest to mount. A straight-edge plate
clamp with positioning pins and a quick-tension mechanism
allow accurate and easy plate mounting.
Quieter Operation and a Smaller Installatoin Space
RYOBI conducted a thorough analysis of cam shapes and
the drive section for quieter operation. The installation space
has been further reduced by placing the pump under the
