Oosterhout, November 2016
– The Slovenian printing concern, Salomon Print, is set to replace the
outdated automation system which is currently in use on its press. The
Ljubljana-based concern has placed an order with Q.I. Press Controls (QIPC),
the Dutch specialist in automation solutions for the printing industry. QIPC is
to fit two mRC-3D cameras for colour register and two for cut-off
register on the company's manroland ROTOMAN N press in Slovenia. In the words of Salomon
Print: “QIPC is well-known in the market for its top-class products.”
Essential
“Replacement of the existing
automation system was absolutely essential,” explains, Andrej Semen, technical
director at Salomon Print. “The current system is out-of-date.” Initially,
Salomon Print entered into talks with suppliers active in the region, but QIPC
appeared on the scene at a later stage thanks to the intervention of its agent
Ivan Rogić of Grafmat-Usluge. “At that
point, we decided to make a competitive bid ourselves,” explains Erwin van
Rossem, Head of Sales at QIPC. In fact, Salomon Print didn't need to think
twice about QIPC's offer. “Not only was the price attractive,” say Andrej
Semen, “QIPC is highly competent and is well-known in the market for its
top-class products.”
Best option
Ivan Rogić,
managing director of Grafmat-Usluge and agent for QIPC in the region, followed
the whole process at close quarters. According to the agent, this is the best
option for both Salomon Print and QIPC. “QIPC has the most effective solution
on the market and Salomon Print soon realised this.” Together, the four mRC-3D
cameras will automate the colour and cut-off register systems. “We're counting
on the reliability of these systems to bring about big savings in waste when it
comes to colour and cut-off control,” adds Andrej Semen.
Service
In addition to the attractive
price and the superior product, Salomon Print can also fall back on QIPC's
excellent service in the unlikely event of anything going amiss. “We expect the
collaboration with QIPC will mean quick response times and a long-term
relationship,” says Andrej Semen. Erwin van Rossem is certain his colleagues
won't have any problems in meeting these expectations. “What's more, if we make
sure the new system works better than the current one, I envisage new
opportunities for cooperation in the future.”
