Nies adds more digital equipment
Thursday, May 28th, 2009

Since the fall of 2006, Nies/Artcraft Companies moved into high quality digital printing in a big way. We now have 17 HP Indigo commercial sheetfed presses supporting a wide range of customer needs. Our digital business includes fully-variable direct mail runs as high as several million pieces, custom photo-products, and custom professional quality book production. We are currently implementing the HP WS6000 industrial rollfed press to support custom specialty products and empower our labeling division with high quality digital capabilities. 

Nies adds 4 new FeedMax S high capacity feeders
Friday, May 1st, 2009

NAFCO, the Nies/Artcraft Fulfillment and Mailing Division, added four (4) FeedMax S High Capacity feeders to the equipment arsenal. The units allow us to keep our inkjet machines running at better speeds with less operator intervention on the feed side meaning our operators can focus on the output side and quality control measures. The feeders integrate with our inline inserter inkjet bases and allow them to function as standalone addressing units with a simple reconfiguration. In addition to better space and equipment utilization, this allows us to take on larger inkjet runs without relying on any single piece of equipment. This also allows us to fit more projects into our schedule with less time needed for teardown and setup from one job to the next.  We now have a total of five (5) available units, all with 4″ of print capacity via 2-2″ print heads for inkjet addressing projects.
