MAN Execs Assess State of Industry

This press was the shop’s first experience with closed-loop color control, says the company president. “We love it. Makeready only takes 30 minutes for a job that’s being rerun or 45 minutes for a new job. We’re considering retrofitting our other press with this capability.”

A new sheeter was installed at the same time as the press. “We’re getting tighter cut off tolerances, less paper dust on sheets and better performance of sheets on press,” Codo notes. “We don’t hear any more complaints from press operators about sheet quality.”
