2000 pcs/hour but it's an Anatol so you'll only have so many hours to work with.

I suspect Evo knows nothing about our tag printer, he never owned one never used one.    I wonder how he came up with his facts or is he just "Anatol Bashing".
Is this a fair comment?  Do comments like this further a conversation about a press or a company?

I think it's a little brash to start calling members out when all history of Anatol on this board has proven towards his post.

Can some one post some pics of this press?  So everyone can see what is being talked about, and maybe a vid of the press running at the speeds posted.

Chris, thanks.   A video is currently in production as we speak.  I will post one as soon as it is available.

Companies can turn themselves around and I'm not sure if that really applies in this situation but I guess it all depends on how you look at it and who is looking at it.  I hope that a year from now I can say positive things about more equipment manufacturers.  I don't get enjoyment out of giving my opinions when they're negative, I really don't.  And I sure as hell don't get any enjoyment out of listening to shop owners or managers telling me about negative issues with equipment manufacturers, that is even worse.

If I remember correctly(I am pretty sure it was ISS Nashville) it looks a lot like "The Claws" tag machine that The OTS in CA made. Only with a large almost air tank as the base. Yes, you can use that idea of making the base a air reserve tank... ;D

Ok that was an off the cuff remark and maybe I should have kept it to myself.

Here is a clearer statement:

From everything I've read and heard about Anatol over the years, I would never buy an Anatol press and I would think twice about working for a shop that owned one.

I hope Anatol can turn that kind of sentiment around and I hope any current Anatol owners are happy.

Hey Anatolhelp, what's your name? Sometimes when people are on a first name basis it helps take down some barriers.

Ill help you out here-

I have to say, that's a cute looking little press ;)

side channel thought:

is this how those koozie printer guys are able to print for so cheaply?

or are they using a big press with 6 or 8 koozies per arm?

I'll see your reserve air tank and go you one better

This could open a whole new fan base as well!
