German printer Druckhaus Ulm-Oberschwaben (DUO) has elected to use a IDS-3D system from Q.I. Press Controls as a color-density control solution, QIPC announced.
The decision follows DUO’s 2014 comprehensive renewal program, when the printer invested in four Colorman autoprints from manroland.
The core business of DUO with its two sites in Ulm and Weingarten is the production of newspapers and local weeklies published by Neue Pressegesellschaft Ulm and Schwabisch Media Ravensburg.
The introduction of 16 IDS-3D cameras from QIPC is aimed at reducing the ink consumption and further automate the production process. "As a modern printing operation, we have to protect the environment by reducing our use of resources on the one hand, and, on the other, using our well-trained staff effectively by automating unnecessary manual tasks," says CEO Ernst Jackwert.
The QIPC quality management system IQM will also come into use in Ulm and Weingarten in fall 2018. IQM is a web-based reporting system that logs data relating to register, color density or fan-out that is relevant to product quality and summarizes all nonconformities in a clearly structured production report.
"We are very pleased that DUO, as a classic manroland customer, elected to use our systems," says Menno Jansen, chairman of Netherlands-based QIPC.
