Phillips Printing Reports Benefits of Switching to Heidelberg Consumables

In addition, “We certainly have noted a cleaner, sharper, more consistent dot on every color on every job,” Hearn confirms. “Generally, we’re able to get 30 percent more work off the press on a series of short runs, and 100 percent more doing one or two long runs during the day. Our run speed also has increased for most stocks because the plates, ink and chemistry deliver high-quality work at higher speeds.”

A Family Affair
Focusing on the larger picture, however, Hearn insists that what Heidelberg brings to the table with its consumable offerings is a combination of elements that have been thoroughly tested and proven by Heidelberg to perform as well as possible together. “While the greatest improvement Phillips has seen over the past 18 months is due to the new Saphira plates, “the outstanding results we see from Heidelberg Saphira consumables really come from using them together across the board,” he said.
