DI Presses in the In-plant
Impracticality aside, though, Hoover also acknowledges, when pressed, a lingering lack of trust in DI technology.
“It did seem like the technology just didn’t catch on,” she says. This notion was intensified when Heidelberg stopped manufacturing DI presses in 2006.
“Heidelberg kind of abandoned it, and that made us say, ‘wow, there’s got to be some reason why they’re not supporting it any more,’ ” Hoover notes.
