UniLock-Up® System

UEI’s innovative new UniLock-Up® system makes a press set-up quick, easy, reliable and efficient. Perfect for large sheet applications with multiple-up dies as well as repeat jobs.

This system utilizes your press sheet layout and through precision engineering UEI cuts out, pre-mounts and locks copper or brass dies to a specially designed steel plate, which can then be securely affixed to the chase. To allow for modifications in the printed sheet, each die position has the capability to be slightly adjusted before final lock-up. Each UniLock-up® system is custom made to fit the press layout and can be easily stored for future repeat jobs.
