One on One — Ulrik Nygaard on Finishing

In addition to user friendliness, how much more improvement is possible in terms of the actual mechanics of folding a print job?

With some of the higher speed machines, there are improvements being made to increase productivity and deal with different types of paper, but in terms of the actual folding process, we have been in business for 90 years, and the basic concept of how you fold is still the same. We are working on faster and on more accurate folding, to reduce the setup time so you can change from one fold to another in a matter of seconds. These are all things that are very valuable to the end user so they can improve the productivity of the finishing department significantly.
