NEWLY INSTALLED ROLLEM TR ROTARY SCORING
SYSTEM IS SAVING CUSTOMERS TIME & MONEY

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."
