Replacement Jet Press for Emmerson

Kenilworth based Emmerson Press has taken on a new Fujifilm Jet Press 750S to replace its 720S B2 inkjet and significantly upped its digital firepower. 

Operations Director, Jamie Emmerson said; 'this was a bit of an unplanned purchase!  We had it in the back of our minds that it might be time to consider replacing the 720S - but we went to see the new system purely out of interest and we were convinced straight away. "It is 33% faster than the 720S and we were impressed by the engineering and particularly its drying technology and the productive way sheets pass through the press.

Also recently installed was a Duplo DBM-600 bookletmaker in May, which brings digital bindery capabilities onsite for the first time to free up a persistent bottleneck in Emmerson's workflow.  With a roster of 25 staff, Emmerson Press runs a five-colour B2 Heidelberg Speedmaster XL 75 and a Speedmaster CD 74 in tandem, as well as a small Heidelberg Linoprint C751 digital system and a varied clutch of finishing kit on its 1,860sqm site. Its turnover is £3.5m.

Dawn Reid, Regional Director for the area added 'I first saw this press courtesy of Fuji and was then keen to see it in operation - which Jamie and John were happy to support. Emmerson Press will be using the system primarily for short-run, high-quality work, focusing on clients in the property, education and automotive sectors.
