Didn't beak a sweat.Thats more than we do in a week right now. So we should have zero trouble haha.This is interesting to me. You do 180 screens a week, do you feel you will get a good ROI with the price of those units.180 screens isn't a lot but not just a few.Just curious as I would like to get one. We do about the same as you that's why Im asking. We are very efficient with work flow with ourLarge Amergraph and films.Re read what Dave posted..... He does 180 screens a day

Hopefully there will be a few CTS's's's's's's's at the ISS Ft. Worth this year because last year there was...wait for it....1 for me to look at.I'm sure we all remember the 11 month ROI thread and that famous CTS. That thing must be practically printing money by now...lucky.
Brandt, prepare to take Monday and instead of it being just a day to do set ups, a day of set ups and printing, you will see!!, That is if you still schedule like that, I remember you mentioning that in a past thread recently. Anyways congrats, and welcome to the Rocket Launcher posse!!

Anyways congrats, and welcome to the Rocket Launcher posse!! This is exactly what we are trying to do. We are at the point we need to print more jobs, we need to output faster to do that. Simple as that. We will be like most of our stuff in excess capacity which is great to have that problem then not be able to go faster because of some bottle neck. Our shop is running with 8 people today, sorted 48 boxes today via UPS..... we are not exactly slow here. We also paid cash for the CTS.

What's the impression count on your new press at these days?ROI isn't everything for sure. But having a machine that pays for itself (vs. some "alternate" funding paying for it) is.
Some of you could about afford a DTS just on the wasted time discussing it on the internet.

Those are powerful statements from guys like Bim, Danny, and Dirk. Do you have a column for that on your fancy ROI sheet?
