2139 in one hour!

That's like 1 minute on the Coke bottling line. I am not impressed!

[Inkworks]

Lo,, that's just about 8 times faster than we run

[3Deep]

More than we've run all week   congrats Rich!

He'll Darryl, we probably do that a quarter! LOL

Great perspective!

[GraphicDisorder]

Only if we could all run them that fast for 8 hours a day and have enough work to do that all the time.

Meh











Just Kidding, that's impressive, I don't care who you are.  To maintain that speed for an hour is pretty incredible.  With someone helping me load (opening the shirts for me) I couldn't even get up to 1800/hr much less maintain it for an entire freaking hour.  With help loading doing 1000/hr on our auto is really easy but they just did double that.

Anyone have that guys number? I got a $8/hr job waiting for him!   
Heck, he can even slack off a bit our press maxes out around 1300/hr

Video? Closest guess?

LOL....

Congrates everyone at M&R..... Can't wait for the video.

I would love to see the VISA and Passport for the next challenge.

The faster the equipment goes, the lower prices will be driven......

Pretty Cool! I guess its good for bragging rites. I am sure it sold a bunch of pints at all the pubs
in London. Reminds me of the Coney Island Hot Dog champion who eats 150 dogs in an hour.
Wow! You could say its good for R&D. Good for the antacid guys, not real sure what it does for the
screen print guys. The reality is 20 years ago, tons of shops in the USA were printing 600 shirts an
hour, per press all day long, and some around the clock. Today in most , not all, shops that I visit have the
numbers coming off the presses today, they don't even come close to the numbers 20,10,5 years ago. The
amount of ink sales is a fraction today as well. The BOTTLENECK in screen printing today is the same as
it was 20 years ago. PREPRESS, SETUPS, are more of a problem than my press cycling less than 1000 an hour.
But most don't like to look at logic or numbers! Because reality can be a blessing, or a BIG slap in the face
wakeup call. I guess some of you can go after Walmart now, and make up the losses in volume. I think it still
works out that way doesn't it? It could be good for sales to Bangladesh, since the workers have gotten a dollar
an hour raise from $37 to $38 per month! Woww.. Walmart,Nikes,and the like can now EXPECT more units
per hour, so that should translate to even LOWER cost for our shirts. The screen print industry is on the decline.
I would be happy to see LAST YEARS technology at lower prices. I would like to see more energy in faster, cheaper screen making, prepress and post press, screen press setups. Then and only then, will we have a
chanch to print 600 shirts an hour, all day long, everyday. Hard to do, with smaller runs, more setups! So it
is really cool for bragging rites, KUDOS!  I am just not sure, how this helps printers here, in the good ole USA
put, and keep more money in their pockets. I think most could use a few more "greenbacks" and let the
"attaboys" take care of themselves.

dont know who you are visiting that is not taking care of prepress but I can assure you there are thousands doing it the right way. Winston I don't remember the last time we used micro register on a press at a show for other than demonstration purposes. Do prepress right( and the tools are available) and extremely quick setups are possible. On this site alone there are quite a few doing it right. Look up the post from Dan Zmuda at Castle for reference.
