Optimum Replenishment with Heidelberg Primesetters

Echo Graphic is pleased to introduce optimum replenishment on all Hope/Carnfeldt on-line processors for Heidelberg Primesetters. Based on Speedway expose data from the Primesetter like material type, size and black clearance proportion the processor calculates optimum replenishment. For additional information about optimum replenishment please follow this link for film and this link for polyester plates.

Print 01

During Print 01 Echo Graphic and our American distributor Carnfeldt America Inc. focused on the use of polyester material. Polyester material was produced on-line on CreoScitex equipment at the Carnfeldt stand and on Heidelberg equipment at the Heidelberg stand. During the past two years customers in North America, Mexico and parts of Latin America have showed an increasing interest in using polyester material and Print 01 showed a continued positive interest.

Furthermore, the new Kodak Polychrome film material “Premier” was produced at a Heidelberg Primesetter 74 and successfully developed at a Hope/Carnfeldt EG 901 at the Carnfeldt stand. This was the only stand at the entire exhibition, which showed this new product in action.

Unfortunately, September 11 had a great influence on the last part of the exhibition and the focus for graphic equipment was considerably reduced.

Kodak Sales Conference in Paris

At the beginning of October Eastman Kodak had arranged an international sales conference in Paris for European and Middle East sales staff.

Our Managing Director, Mr Frank Østergård participated as speaker on the first day to inform the representatives about the status of the cooperation as well as to inform about the future range of Hope/Carnfeldt PCB processors.
