Manugraph sends Hiline by air to Abudhabi
Manugraph has done it again! Known for its prompt delivery they
have established a benchmark in supply and installation of a Hiline
web press by sending it by air to Abu Dhabi. The press reaches prior
to the commited target date. Here's a brief about the same.
It was a matter of pride for
Manugraph to keep on record
the airlift of mammoth printing
units. Right from the beginning, the
installation has been breaking
various set norms i.e. delivery of
units, installation progress,
inauguration at an earlier date than
actually planned.
The order for the United Printing &
Publishing, Abu Dhabi was placed
on December 20, 2007. For a
manufacturing company, such kind
of order would have taken lead-time
of minimum 6-8 months. But, the
logistics management divided the
entire project into seven phases to
facilitate non-stop machine delivery
with an ongoing installation at site
by the Manugraph dedicated team.
And the first phase of equipment
was delivered on January 10, 2008,
which was just three weeks post
the order placement.
From thereon there was no turning
back. The entire chain was well
maintained with no mishaps. And
the last phase of the project was
completed on March
27, 2008. To add
feather to the
Manugraph cap, the
committed target date
for the entire order
being April 19, the inauguration was
pre-poned to April 17 due to
Manugraph’s prompt delivery.
The technical details of this
mammoth machine include the
Hiline press with 8 towers + 2
folders with QF, 8 webs can be run
on any of the folder
as single pressline or
2 folders can run
separately as 2
presslines, 2 webs
heatset provision, 8
nos AR-70 autopasters installed at
90o, fully loaded pressline with
multicam automatic registration
and cut-off control system from
Quadtech-USA and Manucolour
remote ink presetting system with
CIP-3 interface.
