Same Press, Separate Routes

Polestar Hannibal maintains line speeds of 165 fpm to 195 fpm on the EM 410, which may lag slightly behind U.S. productivity standards, but, Blow says, make it easier to maintain necessary quality levels. Hot foil stamping is done off-line to prevent further reduction of press running speeds.

To maximize profits, core customers' largest orders (up to 264,000 sq. ft.) are printed all at once, and then parceled out in batches as needed.
