BH Media has ordered a drive retrofit from ABB for two
Mitsubishi presses at its print site in Mechanicsville ,
Virginia , according to ABB. The Times-Dispatch Hanover County
production plant prints the daily Richmond Times-Dispatch, the Newport News
Daily Press and an assortment of BH Media weeklies and other publications.
The two
Mitsubishi presses are shafted and each currently has 11 Fincor drives, five
with 200HP and six with 100HP. These drives are obsolete and also difficult to
troubleshoot and repair, ABB says.
ABB will
supply the latest DCS880 DC industrial drives.
The new
drives will be commissioned on the first press around mid-year 2019. The second
press follows in 2021.
