UpFront Installs Mitsubishi UV Sheetfed Press

MINNEAPOLIS – A new Mitsubishi Diamond 3000LX sheetfed press with ultraviolet (UV) printing and coating capabilities fits perfectly into UpFront’s growth strategy. It is similar to the press that Mitsubishi demonstrated at Graph Expo & Converting Expo 2006.

Installed in August 2006, the six-color, 40˝ press prints on 0.002˝ paper to 0.040˝ carton stock. It also accommodates vinyls, styrene, polyesters and static-cling substrates. The UV process shortens production times, because the product is dry and can be finished more quickly than with conventional printing.
