SunDance Marketing Solutions Increases Finishing Capabilities with New Duplo Machine
SunDance Marketing Solutions, a full-service Orlando marketing and printing company, is thrilled to announce the purchase of a Duplo DC-646 Slitter/Cutter/Creaser/Folder. The new machine allows for efficient, precise and flexible finishing for digital color documents.
The new DC-646 will take the place of folders and guillotine cutters. With the Integrated Folding System, the DC-646 can perform slitting, cutting, creasing and folding capabilities in a single pass. While the manual operators at SunDance have always been committed to excellence and perfection, the automation and precision of the Duplo DC-646 is like a shortcut to unparalleled accuracy. Projects like business cards, slit-score greeting cards, micro-perforated coupons, direct mailers with tear-away cards and more can be produced quickly in-house - and with great cost savings. “What previously might have taken us days or hours can now be produced in minutes,” says Director of Operations JohnHenry Ruggieri. “We are incredibly excited to be able to improve our accuracy and turnaround time while decreasing costs for our clients.”
SunDance works closely with many Fortune 500 and medium-sized companies to produce online ordering systems for folded business cards, small brochures and other print products that may need to be ordered on a recurring basis. With the new DC-646, print runs become faster and more accurate, even further removing the headache often caused by complicated print ordering. And for projects that might require a reorder in the future, the machine also features a CCD scanner, allowing it to scan a barcode, recall any job stored in memory, then set up the job identical to the previous run.
