NJ printer to host large format seminar
Sep 3, 2008 10:55 AM
Edison Litho & Printing will host a seminar on new developments in large-format printing September 16, 2008, at its 80,000-sq.-ft. facility in North Bergen, NJ. The firm has two 81-inch sheetfed presses at that facility and will continue the seminar at the nearby Hilton Secaucus, NJ, where industry experts will present their take on the growth of large-format printing, its new and potential applications, and new substrates.
“Our company is unique in that we have two of the largest printing presses in the world in our facility,” says Joe Ostreicher, Edison’s vice president. “Our new KBA Rapida 205 81-inch sheetfed press gives us the additional capability of printing on substrates like plastic, vinyl and styrene, and allows us to service our customers with their entire large-format printing needs. We’ve found there are very few printers who have this ability, thus making us unique in the market.”
The seminar will begin with a demonstration of Edison’s unique facility and its trio of large format presses: its newest KBA Rapida 205 81-inch six-color sheetfed press with coater and custom plastics package; an 18-month-old KBA Rapida 162 64-inch six-color sheetfed press with aqueous coater; and a second KBA Rapida 205 81-inch six-color press, installed in late 2005.
Once attendees have seen presses, they will hear from speakers including RIT professor emeritus Frank Romano and KBA North America director of technology Chris Travis. Greg Kestler, printable films product manager for GPA, will discuss the growing use of specialty substrates for large-format printing.
The seminar will run from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. To make a reservation or for more information, call Nini Rubin at 718-431-0100.
