“We were sending out all of our die-cutting and I found out that I could pay for my own machine in about three years,” he says.
Along with the new Heidelberg SBB die-cutting press, the in-plant added a tab folder/gluer from B&R Moll, which is used to fold and glue the pocket folders.
“I am able to be more responsive to my customers’ needs because it’s in-house now,” he says. It’s also less expensive for clients. The die-cutter has allowed the in-plant to do new types of work, like door hangers and specialty die-cut effects on brochures.
