B&R MOLL, INC. AND PLATINUM SED, INC. PRODUCTIVE PARTNERS FOR PROGRESS


"With our Standard 2000 we could now produce four-page pocket folders regardless of what shape the pockets were in, whether they were curved, angled, or in unusual configurations,” recalled Williams. “Our production capabilities and the types of jobs we could now handle greatly increased, while our turn-around times greatly decreased. Almost overnight we became much more competitive because we could now take on a larger variety of jobs requiring heavier volumes with complete confidence.

"The user-friendly nature of the Standard 2000 system was particularly significant for us in terms of dollars and cents," Williams continued. "Although this system is high-performance and very versatile, it is simple to run by only one operator. This allowed us to divert staff members from this process to other operations taking place in our plant. Use of this system has economically enhanced our overall capabilities, and enabled us to utilize our personnel more advantageously, without the need to expand our staff."

Another important benefit of the Standard 2000 system is its ability to avoid unsightly paper marking. This is a particularly big plus for the management of Platinum SED.

"Unlike competitive high-speed folder/gluer systems which regularly mark the paper sheet, the Standard 2000 system never leaves marks, even on the most finicky paper stocks, from 60-pound to 120-pound covers," maintained Williams.

Over the years Platinum SED has made solid strides in its automation program by continually adding a series of high-performance components to enhance its production capabilities and better meet customer needs. The most significant addition was the installation of the innovatively designed REGAL® folder/gluer system, a product of B&R Moll. This system includes a primary pocket folding/gluing unit; a secondary unit called the VERSA-FOLD®, that glues and forms pockets and is capable of changing product directions for additional operations; and the DIAL-a-STACK®, an adjustable mobile stacking unit with electronic scanner control which eliminates delivery jam ups due to feeder gaps.
