The machine features a fully customisable workflow solution and helps the printer improve quality and reduce turnaround time.

ST Reddiar Printers was established in 2019 by R Sarada and R Rajendran, former partners of the 100-year-old printing firm, ST Reddiar & Sons. Most of the company’s customers are newspaper publishers, and now, these customers prefer digital printing plates for processing. 

According to Ramesh Rajendran, ST Reddiar Printers, there were many reasons to invest in ThermoStar T9. “We were facing time constraints in processing the plates, as we had many clients who were providing us with different files at the same time. This caused a lot of delay in the production of the newspapers. TechNova gave us a good solution for the problem we were facing and suggested that we go for ThermoStar T9 CTP,” Rajendran said.

After installing the ThermoStar T9, Rajendran said the company was able to increase its production and reduce the delay in processing plates.
