Recent
Developments
Diamond recently developed the Diamond TruColorSM
color system, a proprietary method of color
control, color
monitoring and color matching, offering unparalleled quality and
economic benefits
compared to traditional four-color process
printing. The Diamond TruColorSM color system uses just six
colors
to accurately and optimally reproduce over 1000 colors, while
delivering near-photographic fidelity
from an offset printing
process.
A new Heiber & Schröder window-patching machine
combines precision with production efficiency, offering speeds up
to 30% faster than competitive machines. The addition of a Heiber
& Schröder Universal "UF" pick-and-place feeder is the perfect
complement to the window-patching machine, enabling it to merge
virtually any flat shape or material, such as coated paper,
paperboard, film, or mesh.
