Oosterhout, febrero 2015
- Printing company Grafischer Betrieb Henke, based in Brühl, Germany has
decided to invest in the new system from Q.I. Press Controls. The
investment entails replacing its current IRS 40S colour register system
with the mRC-3D and expanding this with the print image-based
colour-control system, IDS-3D on its Goss M600 printing press.
Grafischer Betrieb Henke is a long-standing customer of Q.I. Press
Controls. In 2001, Henke was the first heatset customer to opt for the
IRS colour register and cut-off for its Heidelberg M600 press, a system
that is still proving its worth today. In 2006, the business plumped for
the IRS 40S solution for its new Goss M600. This system too still
performs to the customer’s satisfaction. Robert Onodi, Technical Manager
at Grafischer Betrieb Henke, had this to say about the system: “We’ve
been working for years with systems from Q.I. Press and they are just
perfect for what we need.”
The motto of Grafischer Betrieb Henke consists of three words: good,
affordable and quick. This means that the company is constantly looking
to optimise its product quality, so that the costs for customers are
minimised and the printing process can take place as efficiently as
possible. One consequence of this has been that the organisation has
been keeping a close eye on developments at Q.I. Press Controls and now
wishes to invest in the new mRC-3D and IDS-3D, despite the fact that the
current systems are still perfectly adequate in the client’s view. “In
my opinion, Q.I. Press Controls is an extremely innovative organisation
whose product developments are based on the needs of its customers,”
explains Onodi.
In February 2015, Q.I. Press Controls upgraded the Goss M600 by
replacing the current IRS 40S with the mRC-3D system for colour register
and cut-off. In addition, Q.I. Press Controls added to the solution
with the automatic colour control for the IDS-3D. Grafischer Betrieb
Henke anticipates that the effects of this will be threefold: not only
will the quality of its products remain good, they will also improve in
the future; consumption of ink and paper will be reduced; and the
start-up process will be quicker. In doing so, the company is remaining
true to its motto. “This system enables us to produce really small-scale
print runs with the minimum use of materials,” explains Onodi.
Onodi is positive about future collaboration with Q.I. Press Controls:
“I’m expecting a harmonious relationship, particularly in the
forthcoming installation phase and anticipate that the helpful and
flexible service will continue.” Jaco Bleijenberg, International
Director of Sales & Marketing at Q.I. Press Controls, is extremely
happy with the order from Grafischer Betrieb Henke: “The upgrade from
such loyal customers as Grafischer Betrieb Henke demonstrates that our
clients believe in our product and concept. This encourages us to keep
innovating and investing in the future so that we can continue bringing
novel solutions to the marketplace.”
