Global Web Finishing is pleased to announce the flawless installation and start up of a custom designed, multi facet, prefolding arrangement at York Mailing LTD of York, England.  York Mailing is an award winning, UK leading print manufacturer of retail promotion and free standing insert products.  The GWF system installed on an MAN Lithoman, long grain 64 page web offset/heatset press and was desperately needed to exploit production capability by expanding the press folder capability. 

This exclusive GWF prefolder system design includes additional ribbon creation, shifting and compensation as well as additional former folding and delivery and believed to be the first design and installation of its kind. 

Works Manager, Mark Bennett was at times nearly at a loss for words in describing how well such a complex design came together.

“We’ve never seen a system of this size, location on the press and complexity install so well”.  “This project was delivered on time and completed at less than half the cost of other quotes and the best part is we lost absolutely zero production time on the press whereas another proposal we received suggested that the press be down for 5 weeks”

“Operationally, we started it up and brought the speed to 35,000iph (2700fpm)”.   “We can run any grammage weight paper through…no problem”.  “We were a bit concerned with electronics and drive control interfacing with the press which turned out absolutely A1, easy…superb”.  “One particular format that used to be on press 3.5 days is now produced in 1.5 days…we’ve doubled our output on many formats”

“It’s really groundbreaking, phenomenal that we took a 6 month old press still in warranty and contracted a new firm in Global Web Finishing to custom design and build something that we were told was impossible and will never work…no one does that and the reward is superb!”
