In-line Finishing--Going Retro on Presses

Frick feels there are several reputable auxiliary equipment providers meeting the needs of direct mail printers, including Scheffer and Versatech (formerly Baldwin In-Line). Another provider of technology for Lehigh is Western Printing Machinery (WPM). The Schiller Park, IL-based manufacturer has long been known for products such as its diecutter or rotary cutter, the Rota-Cutter, but has beefed up its offerings and become a more well-rounded finishing hardware and software provider with the acquisition of two businesses: MRG Technologies and AGM in-line products. Both additions came within the last two years and have served to heighten WPM's aggressive approach toward the market.
