Speedmaster XL 106-8-P and 2x Speedmaster XL 106-4-L. High productivity and service availability supporting dynamic growth.
“We are steadily growing in terms of online print jobs and will continue to expand these sales channels,” reports Esben Mols Kabell from LaserTryk. “We print short runs of around 200 sheets digitally. The average runs for offset are slightly longer, between 1,000 and 1,300 sheets, which still means lots of job changes. Our Speedmaster presses are the perfect fit here. They are highly productive, easy to operate, very fast to set up, and print with average speeds of between 14,000 and 16,000 sheets per hour. As a rule of thumb we allow an average of 9 minutes per job, including makeready times of 3.5 minutes, which cover all activities,” continues Esben Mols Kabell. “Here’s another figure: we use 5,677 plates per week. With this workload, the good availability of Heidelberg service and its ability to have a local team on site quickly at all times is also crucial.”
Originally a digital printing company when it was established in 1999 by Esben Mols Kabell and Anders Grønborg, today the company is one of the leading players in the online market in Scandinavia. LaserTryk has also been part of the international Onlineprinters group since 2017.
The company, based in Aarhus in Denmark, currently employs around 200 people, split evenly between sales, service, marketing and IT as well as production. It runs three shifts, five days a week, with additional weekends shifts if necessary. As well as advertising agencies, its customers mainly include sales and marketing companies. It is a full-service provider, offering layout, prepress and press, and postpress. “For us, the high productivity of the Speedmaster and good service availability of Heidelberg count. The productivity on our 8-colour Heidelberg XL 106 is extreme; we regularly reach 50 make-readies (400 plates) with 75.000 sheets printed in an 8,5 hour shift,” concludes Esben Mols Kabell.
