Sanjeev Vyas of Spot Grafiks said, “Our decision to invest in the Thermostar T9 was driven by the need for higher productivity, consistent plate quality, and faster turnaround times. With increasing demand for shorter runs and frequent job changes, we required a reliable and efficient plate exposing solution.”
He said that TechNova played a supportive role in the decision-making process. “They provided detailed technical guidance, demonstrated the machine’s capabilities, and helped us understand how it would fit into our existing workflow. Their prompt responses and transparency gave us confidence in selecting the Thermostar T9.”
Founded in 1996, Spot Grafiks has established itself as a leading name in the printing industry, specialising in offset printing. From the beginning, the company set a high standard for quality, offering exceptional results with every print job.
Over the years, Spot Grafiks expanded its services to include digital printing, adapting to evolving market demands and technological advancements. Known for its commitment to precision and excellence, the company has earned a reputation for delivering outstanding prints with excellent finishing, whether for business, marketing, or creative purposes. Spot Grafiks' dedication to superior craftsmanship and customer satisfaction has made it a trusted partner for clients looking for reliable, high-quality printing solutions.
Vyas said, “Our magazine and brochure printing services cater to businesses looking to create visually appealing, informative, and professional marketing materials. In the growing EdTech sector, Spot Grafiks plays a vital role by providing customised printed materials for educational kits, while catering to various industries for their printing needs, self-adhesive labels(sheet-form), mono cartons, etc. We collaborate closely with companies to design, produce, and deliver materials that enhance the learning experience, helping educators and students alike benefit from engaging, well-crafted resources.”
Vyas said there has been a noticeable increase in the demand for printing plates. With the shift towards quality printing, shorter runs, versioning, and more frequent job changes, plate usage has gone up significantly. Additionally, the need for quick turnaround times has made efficient plate production more critical than ever.
According to Vyas, key challenges include rising costs, faster turnaround demands, and maintaining consistent quality. “The solution is adopting advanced technology, improving workflow efficiency, and focusing on operator trainin,” he said.
He added, “It is true that technology adoption can be challenging in many Indian pre-press houses, mainly due to investment concerns and the need for process changes. In our case, we managed the installation of the platesetter through careful planning and a clear understanding of our long-term goals.”
Spot Grafiks ensured that the required infrastructure was in place and involved its team from the beginning to make them comfortable with the new technology. Proper training and hands-on support from the supplier helped the operators adapt quickly. “As a result, the transition was smooth, and we were able to start realising benefits almost immediately,” Vyas said.
With the installation of the device, the company has eliminated that dependency on bureau houses. Production has become faster and more streamlined, with better quality control and quicker turnaround times. This has helped us serve our customers more efficiently and reliably.
Vyas concluded, “We expect improved capacity, faster turnaround, and business growth after this investment. ROI will come through savings in outsourcing and higher productivity. TechNova’s technology and strong support will help us achieve these goals efficiently.”
