talented people and capable machines that we have at NEWW,” says Ben Urquhart, Sales Manager, NEWW. “Our original Hycorr RDC enabled us to become one of the premier flexographic corrugated printers in the region, but the new Kolbus is an improvement in almost every re- spect. The performance of the machine has already deliv- ered significant benefits to our operation. Print jobs that were once painfully challenging due to print registration, sheet size, ink coverage or other issues are now running smoothly at good speed. “This impressive rotary die cutter was delivered and installed in a time frame that was simply unthinkable for some machine vendors suffering under the significant and real supply chain challenges of the pandemic. Kolbus has delivered an impressive machine at an opportune time. Our ability to accept and deliver on new business opportu- nities has increased significantly. I am extremely excited to present our new capabilities and capacity to customers.” “New England Wooden Ware has proven to be the per- fect partner for Kolbus with the introduction of the Ger- man engineered and manufactured RD115S, into the North American market,” said Jeff Dietz, President, Kolbus Amer- ica. “The trust they have placed in our organization to de- liver and support such a sophisticated piece of machinery, and their advanced understanding of flexo printing has been a great benefit.
