A DC-746 slitter/cutter/creaser and a 600i Booklet System made it onto Brunel Print’s shopping list at drupa.

The new machines will increase automation and take the strain off of two previous Duplo DC-645 systems.

Sue Tugman, managing director of Brunel Print, said, ‘We really do push the capabilities of our equipment to the maximum, with challenging applications and high volumes.’

Duplo’s multi-functional DC-746 is capable of up to 10 slits, 25 cuts and 20 creases in a single pass, and can perforate too. It also comes with Duplo’s new advanced waste management system to enable longer runs when unloading.

The 600i Booklet System, combining DSC-10/60i collator towers and the DBM-600 bookletmaker and trimmer is capable of producing up to 5,200 booklets per hour and can produce A4 landscape format.
