Upgrading our printing department is a
project we have been working on for a long time. In July 2008, we
settled
on a W&H Primaflex 8 color press. Below is a "photo-blog" of the progress
on the installation of the press.
Preparing the space with a new
concrete floor. Early October 2008.
Due to the weight of the
press, the
floor had to be reinforced.
Painting the ceiling and polishing the
new concrete floor.
The space is all completed, and parts
are beginning to arrive. The dryer is the
background, right.
The central impression drum arrives
in mid-November 2008.
The CI drum weighs over 40,000lbs.
The management team watches the
activities. L to R, Bob Tate (CFO), Chris Rogers (VP), Olle Mannertorp
(CEO).
Dave Rohrschneider (COO) inspects
the CI drum and gives it two thumbs up!
