Printing Industries of America and manroland announced they will be collaborating on research initiatives and training activities, which will include stochastic printing on webs, benchmarking of materials, minimizing piling and optimizing techniques for consumables.
“We’ve been able to identify best practices and increase the productivity of our printer members, as well as improve consumables quality by working with manroland. The company’s vast knowledge of sheetfed and web technologies is indispensable to the industry. I look forward to a strengthened relationship with manroland and extending these benefits into this next phase, which will provide ongoing benefits to the graphic arts industry,” said Mark Bohan, vice-president of Technology and Research for PIA.
Printing Industries has laid the groundwork for this next phase in the partnership by using a manroland ROTOMAN web press for the benefit of printers, students and visitors. Over 7,000 people have either trained on or viewed demonstrations of the press.
Said manroland’s CEO, Vince Lapinski, “Printing Industries has represented web technology and manroland in their best light, and shares our philosophy in putting the print professionals’ needs first in everything they do. We look forward to bringing the power of our combined knowledge and experience to manroland customers throughout North America.”
