The Duplo Slitter/Cutter/Creaser/Perf/Fold systems are the very clear winners when it comes to the MVP of digital finishing. There are absolutely no other products on the market that are more versatile and can do more things in one pass than these products can. Proof is in the pudding! Duplo sold nearly 700 of these in 2023!
Digital print and finishing processes are all about maximum efficiency and minimal touches as well as minimal waste. Every sheet counts! Nothing addresses those requirements for success like a Duplo slitter/cutter/creaser/perforator/folder system does.
Check out these production comparisons with one printer using one of these systems and the other one not using the system:
Operator loads her Duplo 648, pushes the run button and leaves.
The 648 feeds the first sheet, scans the barcode, brings the related job from memory and automatically sets it up and runs the job totally unattended while she tends to other work. Operator returns later to unload output, reload feeder and once again, move on to other work.
Day in and day out, month after month, and year after year, Printer B1 is getting this job done along with many others using less labor and reducing overall job costs. Who is more profitable?
Takes the job over to his guillotine cutter in the hope that there is no image variance. Yes, it’s a single step and relatively quick, but he never leaves the cutter while performing this task.
Takes the job over to her Duplo 618, loads it, pushes the run button and leaves.
The 618 feeds the first sheet, reads the bar code, pulls the job from memory and automatically sets the job up and runs it while she tends to other matters. The operator has no concerns over cut accuracy due to an image bounce because each sheet is scrutinized and any image movement is accounted for. Operator returns later to unload output, reload feeder and once again, move on to other work.
Day in and day out, month after month, and year after year, Printer B2 is getting this job done along with many others using less labor and reducing overall job costs. Who is more profitable?
Takes his printed lifts of 23″ x 39″ sheets over to his guillotine cutter to break them into finished pieces. It may be a single step, but the operator never leaves the cutter.
Takes the job over to her Duplo 746, which is configured with the B2 format sheet feeder that can handle stock up to 29″ x 29″. She loads it, pushes the run button and leaves to tend to other jobs.
The 746 feeds the first sheet, reads the bar code, pulls the job from memory, automatically sets the job up, and then runs it unattended. Operator returns later to unload output, reload feeder and once again, move on to other work.
Day in and day out, month after month, and year after year, Printer B3 is getting this job done along with many others using less labor and reducing overall job costs. Who is more profitable?
Takes his lift of 23″ x 29″ sheets and first heads to his guillotine cutter for initial trimming before heading to his second step of perforating.
Once again, this operator loads the B2 feeder on her Duplo 746, presses the run button and leaves to tend to other matters.
The 746 feeds the first sheet, reads the bar code, pulls the job from memory, automatically sets the job up and runs it unattended. Operator returns later to unload output, reload feeder and once again, move on to other work.
Day in and day out, month after month, and year after year, Printer B4 is getting this job and many others done with less labor and overall job cost. Who is more profitable?
For those of you who don’t own one of these, now you know why your competitors have one. See them on Duplo's website.
