Just noticed their spec sheet for this press claims speeds up to 2K per hour. Seems a little bit ambitious.

[Orion]

Yes, does seem ambiguous ambitious.

Well I don't care who makes it, who the hell gonna run a press that fast every day, sales pitch yep!!!!! can it, maybe or maybe not also depends on the person loading and unloading or person's.

[blue moon]

my understanding is that the tag printers run much faster than regular full size press. It is a smaller print and less discerning when it comes to placement. . .

also faster to load and unload

Still that's a lot of work for an hour is what I'd be doing after an hour

If that is a tag printer that they make, I can see those numbers if you have 2 good people running it. It is ridiculously easier and faster to load a tag printer. Think I have seen a YouTube video with 2 ladies running a RapidTag at something like 2100/hr. Good pallets with notches in them help a tremendous amount, you really can almost feel the shirt into place.

Its not a tag printer. No digs at Anatol I've done enough of that.. Some of their machines are quite well designed. It's just that (at least for our clients) QC would just go out of the window no matter who makes the machine. Some placement tolerances are less than 1/4" these days.

Sincerest apologies. It is indeed a tag printer. Must have been dyslexic when going through the spec sheet. There is a video on you tube. No time to time it but yes, it is fast.

Tony, maybe you should join my Mom's support group. She spent 30+ years as a reading specialist. Her group is DAM, Mothers Against Dyslexia.

Haha Dave. Yes I was looking at a spreadsheet not a spec sheet. Looking foolish on this one. Got your message will be in town this weekend. Again my apologies to Anatol. That was an inappropriate post.

FYI..........The new Prodigy has Servo-indexing and with dual flashes, the Prodigy can print up to 2000 tags in an hour.  The advanced operating system allows one-touch access to machine settings.

The Prodigy offers 6 stations and prints from 1 to 3 colors. The maximum image size is 6” X 6” and the standard pallet dimension is 6” X 9”. The user can print tags, koozies and thicker fabrics (for example: socks). Dual flashes provide virtual stacking and packing of finished products.

HA Tonypep that's what you get for jumping the gun and trying to bash my Red Team LOL

[tonypep]

Agreed!
