JUNE 29, 2001:
Specialized Machine is Capable of Folding
"Clamshell" Style Miniature Inserts and Outserts
Chicago, IL – Rickard Bindery
is proud to announce the installation of a new miniature/small format
Vijuk insert/outsert folding machine. This specialized unit allows
“clamshell” style miniature folding sequences that are compatible with
inserting and outserting machinery frequently used by pharmaceutical,
cosmetics, food, beverage and other manufacturing companies. Common
applications for clamshell miniature folding include product inserts
(placed into boxes, bubble packs and other containers), outserts (mounted
onto boxes, other substrates and directly on products), instruction sheets
and hang tags.
Rickard Bindery now has a
diverse fleet of 18 small format folding machines and processes
pharmaceutical and other miniature folding work for customers in more than
half of the US states.
“Our new right angle Vijuk
system delivers many types of folded products that are highly automation
compatible,” says Jim Egan, Sales Manager. “We’ve always
attracted miniature and specialty folding work from all over the country.
This new investment should help reinforce that message.”

Competitive
Advantage Cited
Chicago, IL -
Production update from Rickard Bindery. After two months of running
its new Rollem TR rotary scoring system, customer feedback has been
positive.
Account
Manager Jim Egan says, "Customers are getting faster turnaround times
than in the past. For many jobs, die scoring is a slower
process. Now, we are able to score and fold sheets inline at speeds
up to 10,000/hr. This is a tremendous competitive advantage for our
customers. Until recently there weren't a lot of other
options. The Rollem has changed everything."
