SWITCH FROM COLDSET TO HEATSET IN A SNAP! $$$ NEW REVENUE OPPORTUNITY $$$  APPLICATION

The traditional coldset web printer will gain a new share of the market by competing for those customers seeking a glossy heatset product at a fraction of the capital cost compared to heat set printers. This hybrid system allows the coldset printer to produce gloss products and ground wood products on the same press equipment without switching out ink or making timeconsuming press adjustments. Traditional heatset web printers cure or dry their product utilizing large (30’ – 40’ long) gas-fueled ovens. This new hybrid system has a compact footprint of about 25 sq. ft. and is readily installed on existing coldest press lines with no additional floor space required. This innovative product enhances the quality of all your web printing – coated & uncoated.
