JB MACHINERY Westport, Connecticut: Dave Burgess reports: “Though starting out a bit slow, 2025 evolved into a solid and en- couraging year for the company, marked by continued a result, we see many converters opting to retrofit and upgrade existing systems rather than invest in full line re- placements. This shift has reinforced JB’s long-standing focus on modular, scalable solutions that allow customers to adopt the latest technology while maximizing the value of their installed equipment. “One product benefitting from this trend is the JB Ma- chinery ColorDry® XL-UP system. Interest in XL-UP contin- ued to grow throughout 2025 and is expected to acceler- ate into 2026. Designed as an upgrade path for existing installations, XL-UP delivers all the features and advan- tages of JB’s ColorDry XL3000 IR Drying System. This in- cludes AutoDryer Control, which optimizes drying perfor- mance while minimizing energy usage. In addition to being a component of XL-UP, AutoDryer Control is now standard on all new ColorDry XL3000 systems. “Innovation remained a central theme for JB in 2025, highlighted by the introduction of InkMate™, our latest ink management solution. Designed for simplicity, stability, and unattended operation, InkMate brings the full power of JB’s proven InKomand® precise ink management tech- innovation, strategic growth, and strong customer engagement across global markets. “While the lingering effects of the pandemic largely leveled off, glob- al economic uncertainty continued to influence capital equipment in- vestment decisions worldwide.
