Lithuanian printing company Kopa has invested in a 3692 gathering machine from Muller Martini and expects a major boost in productivity and quality as a result.
The new gathering machine 3692 ensures greater production reliability and an increase in quality at Kopa. Three years ago, a new building was erected on the outskirts of Kaunas, creating space for further growth. Now, step by step, the existing machinery is being modernized and technologically upgraded to the latest standards.
As a long-standing partner, Muller Martini is supporting Kopa with its comprehensive technical and commercial expertise in the modernisation and expansion of its print finishing operations. Due to its continuous growth, the company is focusing on the level of automation, performance and accompanying production control for all its investments.
In the course of Muller Martini’s analysis of production, collating in particular was identified as a neuralgic point. This work step in the run-up to perfect binding and thread sewing has so far been carried out manually.
To remedy this, Kopa will install a 3692 solo gathering machine from Muller Martini for gathering layers for both thread sewing and perfect binding. It is equipped with 16 stations – in line with the product range. The control options associated with the Asir 3 optical image and barcode recognition system ensure greater production reliability and also contribute to an increase in quality.
