Sheet Feats

In the past 12 months, MAN Roland has catered specifically to the large format crowd with the introduction of its Roland 900 series 44˝, 51˝ and 56˝ sheetfed presses, which can achieve speeds of 13,000 sheets per hour.

"The mainstay of the sheetfed industry is the large format, 40˝ x 56˝ machine," says Rudy Valenta, director of sheetfed press sales. "The larger presses allow printers to gang jobs differently—more efficiently—with twice the output at the end of a shift and only 33 percent additional operating costs."
