New Press Installation Halfway

Our new press is exactly halfway through it’s installation – all of the units, the feeder and delivery are all bolted together and Heidelberg’s team of technicians are now connecting up the many air pipes and electrical connectors.

During the installation, half of the press room team are undergoing intensive training at Heidelberg’s Brentford HQ with the rest of the team working twice as hard to cope with their increased workload.

The £ 950,000 B2 press will enable effect finishes and varnishes to be applied inline by using the dedicated anilox coating unit.

Philip Dodd, MD commented “We can’t wait to get into production on the XL.  We love hosting our friends from Heidelberg, but on this occasion we want them gone as quickly as possible so we can start to get to grips with the press.  It’s capabilities and performance will bring significant extra scope and capacity and represents many of the great things about Healeys – investment, innovation, sustainability and quality.”
