Print Designs invests to eliminate bottleneck
Print Designs in Stafford has bought a Zund G3XL3200CVE cutter from Robert Horne to ease a converting bottleneck created by increased production speeds since upgrading to an EFI Vutek QS2000 UV flatbed printer in February 2010.
The Zund G3 cuts materials up to 50mm thickness and can operate 24/7 due to heavy-duty construction and state of the art technology for accuracy. The machine comes with a two-year warranty as standard.
Mark Thompson, Print Designs, said: “We are investing in new machinery to ensure we stay one step ahead of the competition and can offer our customers a high quality streamlined service - we all know in today’s fast paced business arena everyone wants something yesterday.
“When we bought the new flatbed printer we saw a dramatic increase in output, but found work was grinding to a halt, as we just couldn’t convert the projects quickly enough. The new cutter has allowed us to increase our channel of work on standard product conversion such as Opaljet for roller banners and pop up stands. In addition we now have the capability to look at new areas such as point of sale display stands and have ordered new products such as revive Honeycombed Board from Robert Horne for cut outs.”
