Value-Conscious Printers Nationwide Choose Heidelberg
In addition, Autiero noted, a major advantage to buying Heidelberg equipment concerns its resale: “You go to sell a Heidelberg in five years’ time and find it has retained its value,” he said. Marange often runs the XL 105 at its full rated speed of 18,000 sph while turning out a staggering array of commercially printed products. Autiero credits the new machine’s outstanding preset capabilities, and rapid setup and changeover for enabling his company to continue to provide the outstanding customer service his clients expect. The company also operates a Suprasetter 105 MCL platesetter, a 45” programmable POLAR cutter 137ED, TH 82 Stahlfolder, a Stitchmaster ST 100 saddlestitcher, and several Heidelberg small-format presses. As for consumables, Autiero said, “With the installation of our new Suprasetter 105 MCL we committed to using Heidelberg Saphira chemicals and proofing materials. We’ve found that our plates achieve longer runs and higher print quality than before.”
