Ferag has showcased its Rollstream technology as a small-newspaper solution with an installation at the ‘Spectator’ newspaper in Bangor, Northern Ireland. The third-generation family newspaper has teamed Ferag’s RollSert inserter with additional RollStream elements.
Ferag sold its first RollSert drum to the ‘Evening Leader’ across the Irish Sea in Barrow, England, and now has nine customers with circulations down to 2000 copies in the UK and Northern Ireland. Additional components for stitching and trimming are available for commercial products.
One option is the use of Ferag’s TriLine application system to glue reply cards onto product title pages (above).
And at Chemnitzer Verlag und Druck – which publishes East Germany’s largest regional daily newspaper, the ‘Freie Presse’ – a flexible Ferag system has helped the publisher process many more supplements and increase zoning. The custom solution includes three processing lines incorporating RollStream precollecting (below), MultiSertDrum drum inserting controlled by a LineMaster system. A TriLine module can apply MemoStick notes or cards and there is a StreamStitch stitching component and SNT-U trimming drum.
• And in the USA, a combination of Goss and Ferag mailroom equipment is being supplied to a new Transcontinental site.
The equipment includes Ferag UTR conveyors, DiscPool buffering, five MultiSert inserting drums and two Goss 30:2 Magnapak inserting systems, plus stackers and strappers. Goss is a distributor of Ferag products in North America. gx
