REGAL® FOLDER/GLUER SYSTEM HELPS FLORIDA PRINTER BOOST BUSINESS THROUGH "ONE-STOP SHOPPING"

While Blue Ocean Press was expanding its line of services for its customers, this resourceful company also began taking certain activities away from its suppliers and performing them in-house. One of these activities was its die-cutting operation.

"We wanted to better control the quality of our products, foster more precise on-time delivery, and reduce costs, so we installed a well-known folding and gluing system to handle our die-cutting under our own roof," said Mounce. "Unfortunately, this system proved to be a dismal failure. It constantly stopped running, had to be frequently adjusted, and regularly slowed our production schedules. In a move that has proven to be as good as installing the previous system was bad, we replaced this equipment with the high-performance Regal folder/gluer system. The Regal system has proven to be extremely efficient, has greatly enhanced our production capabilities, and shortened turn-around times. It’s an important component in our program to expand our business with current customers and add new ones by providing superior products and on-time delivery. The Regal system has definitely helped us sharpen our competitive edge in the marketplace."

Designed and engineered by B&R Moll, Inc., of Ivyland, PA, the Regal system includes a primary folding and gluing unit, and a secondary unit called VERSA-FOLD® that glues and forms pockets and is capable of changing product directions. The system is equipped with such features as one fold plate, a Tipper plate offering exceptional versatility, built in sheet spacer and batch counter, and DC controls. The Regal system has been customized for use by Blue Ocean Press to also feature a refold component, a transfer tape, and an affixing unit which glues cards onto either brochures or pocket folders in-line.
