Currie brings Roadshow to Visual Impact

Currie Group is bringing its mobile showroom to Visual Impact in Brisbane, giving visitors to the show a VIP preview of its latest technology.

 

The company says it is well known for its Roadshows, trucking the latest technology around the country to provide regional print service providers with hands-on access to the latest technologies.

 

Visual Impact visitors will have the opportunity to see an inline automated booklet production via the combination of an HP Indigo 7900 Digital Press with a Horizon 200 series booklet maker.

 

Currie says, the combo, which made its world debut at PacPrint 2017 in Melbourne last year, delivers end-to-end productivity and solutions and is an illustration of automated printing – a theme which is underscored by the company’s eye-catching robot, which will also be on the mobile showroom.

 

Phillip Rennell, sales and marketing director, Currie Group, says, “The Horizon booklet maker takes the sheets from the HP Indigo and, in one operation, stitches, folds and trims, to deliver a finished product onto the conveyor at the far end, all without a single touch point.

 

That line will be complemented by a range of finishing equipment – Horizon RD-4055 rotary die-cutting system, Horizon SmartSlitter sheet cutter and creaser, Horizon CRF-362 creaser and folder, Foliant Mercury 400SF laminator – which will be set up in front of the mobile showroom.

 

The company’s involvement at Visual Impact made sense, says Rennell, particularly given that the company is about to kick off another major Roadshow from outside the company’s showroom in Brisbane on May 2-3, before heading south to Albury and Adelaide.

 

Rennell says, “We have a long association with VI, so we know the value of the show and its importance to the industry. Given that our next Roadshow event will start outside our Brisbane showroom early next month, VI Brisbane was the opportunity for us to give some of the industry’s key decision makers a look at technology many of them may not have had the opportunity to see at PacPrint, while also kicking off the Roadshow.”

 

Visual Impact will open its doors this Thursday, and run from 10am till 6pm on Thursday and Friday, and from 10am until 4pm on Saturday.
