What the Foil Stamp?

Hello!

I purchased a Heidelberg Windmill 10x15 in the beginning of the year and it came with a foil stamping unit on top and a few random items as well.

I’m looking to get into some foil stamping and I need to know what I have, especially what I need to actually foil stamp and any other suggestions.

First what I have(pictures included);

Honeycomb Base
Bunter Heating Base with connections
Top Foil Unit

I’m most likely missing a few key parts. I’m unsure where the foil is supposed to go as it pushes it down. Assuming there is a bar that is supposed to roll up used foil(i could be wrong) at the bottom of the chase area.

I’ve seen a lot of different foil units for the Windmill but I assume the one I have is from Heidelberg since it has there name on the dial section. So I’m just trying to find out what I really got.

So any insight on these would greatly be appreciated. I’ve included a few pictures to help describe my problem as well.

Thanks!

Dear Chad,

I think that you have the same problem than us.

We have all the parts, but we don’t have the hot foil bar that it supposed to be located under the chase.

The new hot foil roll shoulld be placed under the chase, and the old hot foil is collected at the top part of the hot foil system (4th pic).

Have you found the bar and screws to attached it at ther bottom of the chase?

Kind regards,

Lola

Seems you have most of the parts but not the foil bar as Lola says
Also the heater plate seems to be incomplete not sure if the temperature probe is there need more pics
