Doshi, speaking to PrintWeek India, said, “It was my dream to own a brand new four-colour press, after having used a secondhand machinery for years.”
Doshi added, “It’s not that we could not afford a Lithrone press, and did consider it. The features on the E429 like auto makeready, its compact size and economical power consumption, made it a suitable fit for us. Also, we did not want to buy a truck, not knowing how to use it.”
Doshi, who used to outsourced platemaking, has also invested in a Maclantis CTCP supplied by Insight. The CTCP, which is already installed, will complement the new Komori as well as two four-colour and one two-colour Heidelberg presses.
Located in five galas of 3,000 sq/ft each, in an industrial estate in Mulund, Adinath converts 20 tonnes of paper and paperboard per month, of which 10% is packaging and the rest is commercial printing. Adinath has a fully equipped bindery for post-press work.
The Insight stand also had a Kodak platesetter on display.
By the end of the show this evening, Insight claimed to have clinched orders for six Komori presses and three Kodak platesetters.
