Oosterhout, January 2018
–
Q.I. Press Controls (QIPC) continues to thrive on the Indian print market. The
Dutch specialist in measurement and control systems for the web offset market
recently received five new orders from printing concerns in the Kolkata region
of West Bengal: CDC Printers; Sristi Graphic (two separate orders); Darpan
Conclave; and NAP Printers. A sixth order was placed by Bhiwandi-based Print
Plus. “It is a promising sign that existing clients are satisfied with our
products and services.”
Satisfied
customer
At
the beginning of the summer, CDC Printers ordered two mRC-3D cameras for
colour register control and automatic cut-off control for its printing plant in
Kolkata. QIPC systems had already been installed in the plant, but with an
extra printing tower having since been added to the Manugraph Cityline press,
further automation was essential. “They have been a satisfied customer of ours
for a while now, so they wanted our automation for their new printing tower
too,” explains Vijay Pandya, managing director of QIPC-EAE India.
Double
order
Sristi
Graphic placed two identical orders for its two Naph presses, involving a double
order for two mRC-3D cameras for colour register control, fitted with
AIMS (Automatic Ink Mist Shield). “Prior to this, Sristi Graphic had no
automated colour register whatsoever,” Vijay Pandya observes. “Thanks to the
exceptional collaboration we enjoy with Naph, Sristi Graphic decided to
approach us. They were quickly persuaded by the benefits of automation; waste
savings and consistency of print quality.”
Positive
experience
Darpan
Conclave has been using QIPC systems for many years. Their positive experience
with the mRC-3D system for colour register and cut-off control on a TPH
Orient press meant that the company was more than willing to order two mRC-3D
cameras with an identical configuration for their new TPH Orient press. “It
both delivers significant time and waste savings and it increases the quality
of their production process too,” Vijay Pandya remarks, adding: “It is a
promising sign that existing clients are satisfied with our products and
services. Not only does that enhance our already established reputation, it
also helps ensure that these companies will continue to invest in our systems.”
Reputation
the decisive factor
This
positive reputation played an important part in the order placed by NAP
Printers. “Ultimately, it’s the positive feedback from other users that was the
all-decisive factor in landing this order,” Vijay Pandya reports. Two mRC-3D
cameras for colour register and cut-off control were installed on their Manugraph
Cityline press.
Savings
in labour and waste
The
final Indian order came from Print Plus. The printing plant in Bhiwandi is
about to have two mRC-3D cameras for colour register installed on a Prakash
press. The automation system will lead to considerable savings in labour costs
and help reduce waste.
