Marketing Service Providers Streamline Finishing with Duplo Slitter/Cutter/Creasers

AlphaGraphics, in Bryan, TX, has added the Duplo DC-646 slitter/cutter/creaser to their shop. With the DC-646, AlphaGraphics has the ability to finish unique full-bleed applications with more efficiency and flexibility. “The DC-646 has cut down the number of touches required for small jobs, resulting in faster turnaround times and reduced costs,” commented Russell Price, president of AlphaGraphics. Performing up to eight slits, 25 cuts and 20 creases in a single pass, the DC-646 eliminates white borders and prevents toner cracking on fold lines up to 30 sheets/min. and also offers optional rotary tool and cross perforating modules, both with strike-perforating capabilities, for increased versatility. “The majority of jobs done on the DC-646 are business cards. Previously these had to be taken to a cutter where they would sit until we had a large number of orders and then they would all be cut down. Now they are done by the digital operator,” added Price. AlphaGraphics is a global leader in marketing and print communications. Each AlphaGraphics center is locally owned and offers products from direct mail campaigns and brochures to mobile sites.
