Schlaefli & Maurer in Interlaken will be taking charge of
Switzerland's first Speedmaster CP2000 SM 74-10-P - and one of
the first high-performance ten-color Speedmaster SM 74 units
worldwide.
After S&M made a name for itself in the fall of 1996 by
taking the first eight-color press, its ambitious owners are now
once again looking to make headlines through this exciting new
innovation. S&M will replace its entire production
installations with cutting-edge print solutions from Heidelberg at
the start of 2001. The showpiece of its equipment park will be the
Speedmaster SM 74-10 which will replace the existing eight-color
press. This will be augmented by a further, convertible Speedmaster
SM 74 which will also have five printing units - four colors plus
varnish. At the same time, the prepress section will be changed
over to cutting-edge CtP components such as the Topsetter 74,
Prinergy Workflow und Signastation.
The sizeable investment package will be rounded off by a
POLAR 115 ED guillotine system with peripheral finishing units.
"This 'high-tech offensive' will help reposition our
company and enable us to respond to customers' changing needs, with
their ever greater emphasis on top performance," states Rolf
Hänni. "This cutting-edge technology, combined with all
the opportunities offered by the Workflow and cross-departmental
networking, provides us with a platform for pursuing a professional
and successful strategy on the 50 x 70 market using powerful new
arguments."
