Presstek, Inc. a leading manufacturer and marketer of digital offset printing solutions, today announced that it is collaborating with Cyber, a multinational turnkey solutions provider for the printing industry and a Presstek distribution partner, to host a gala open house event at Cybers Singapore headquarters November 20th and 21st. During the open house, which is expected to attract hundreds of attendees, Cyber and Presstek will be demonstrating the Presstek 52DI digital offset press and educating attendees on the specific benefits the press provides for the Asian Pacific region. The company is headquartered in Singapore and also distributes the Presstek 52DI in Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam and Australia. The Presstek/Cyber distribution partnership was announced in mid-October 2009.
“We are excited to be bringing Pressteks family of DI digital offset presses to our customer base,” said Herbert Cheong, Chairman of Cyber. “This open house represents the first opportunity many of our customers will have to see the press in action, and we expect very good results and a large attendance. The press is ideally suited for many businesses in our region who are seeking competitive advantage amidst increased competition and higher demand for high quality, fast turnaround, short run color printing.”
Presstek DI digital offset presses offer printers the most profitable solution for meeting the demand for quick turnaround, high quality color printing in runs from 500 to 20,000. Capable of printing on a broad range of substrates from .0024″ to .02″ (0.06 mm to 0.5 mm) thick, the DI supports up to 300 lpi (120 l/cm) and FM screening without incurring additional time or expense. These highly automated DI presses combine the efficiency of an all-digital workflow with the versatility and high quality of offset printing. The Presstek 52DI, a 52cm landscape format press, has a maximum sheet size of 20.47″ x 14.17″ (520 x 375 mm) and produces up to 20,000 letter-size pages per hour. Presstek 52DI presses are also available with a UV printing option and an integrated aqueous coater.
“This open house marks our first major collaboration with Cyber as we work together to bring the Presstek 52DI to Cybers large and growing customer base,” said Tim Sawyer, Pressteks Director of Sales for the Asia Pacific Region. “We are also very pleased that we have been able to put this quality event together so quickly. We are looking forward to working with Mr. Cheong and his team on more events of this nature as we expand both the distribution network and the availability of presses at Cyber demonstration sites.”
