Seaway Printing, a family-owned business based in Green Bay, Wisconsin, has recently enhanced its production capabilities by investing in Heidelberg’s latest technology. The company has installed a Speedmaster XL 106-8P press, which is 2.5 times more productive than the XL 105 it replaces. (heidelberg.com)
The new press features Push-to-Stop automation, allowing for autonomous job changes without operator intervention. This system, powered by Intellistart 2, streamlines job preparation, reduces labor requirements, and minimizes operator errors, resulting in consistent, high-quality products. Seaway Printing has reported a consistent maximum production of 18,000 sheets per hour since the installation. (heidelberg.com)
Additionally, the Speedmaster XL 106-8P is equipped with DryStar LED technology, offering zero dry time and halving energy consumption compared to traditional methods. This environmentally friendly feature produces zero emissions and provides rich color depth, even on uncoated papers. (heidelberg.com)
The press also includes the CutStar roll sheeter, addressing industry trends toward thinner materials and shorter runs. With AutoPlate XL and Prinect Inpress Control, the system automatically adjusts registration and color, allowing Seaway to hang eight plates every four minutes with approximately 150 sheets of make-ready.
