Can I join in the fun?  We just pulled the trigger on this same unit!

You will love it!  Let me know if you need some pointers, I know you will have questions.  I worried Mike to death with all of my questions.  Who is doing your install?

Not sure who will be on the install.  I am sure we will have questions and I will be calling you to talk to me like I am 5.

Make sure at install they make the adjustments to print pockets, if not you will be pulling your hair out later.  Also, we have done all the work on a badass art board for Illustrator that you will definitely need.  I will send you ours for FREE!

honestly we are a bunch of dummies over here, and it took us a day to get it figured out on the STE 2. maybe two days for different placements. but it is really easy.

It will be in our warehouse.  Just no room inside our offices. At some point we will build a dedicated room for screen production.

I was shocked at how big it is.  The flow of our screen room blows right now...eventually I'll figure something out.

I didn't have the means to pull the trigger on a DTS but we've had our Starlight for 2 weeks now and we absolutely love it. Definitely a game changer.

I already know! We went from 4 minutes on our old Lawson unit to 24 seconds. (180 Mesh, 2/2 coat, Imagemate 343 Dual Cure).
We've been testing CCI VPR emulsion on it this week. 6 seconds!

Give me more details on the VPR on the starlight.  I have a sample but haven't opened it.  Coating method, time for discharge screens, time for plastisol. Let me know, I want to open my sample. thanks.

We are just going through our sample today. So far we have only been doing 50pc. runs today with it; only about 6 screens so far.
2/2 on 180 mesh. Using a Saati exposure calculator film, we got 8 solid blocks at 6 seconds and 7 solid blocks at 4 seconds.
We ran 50pcs., 2 color discharge with the 6 second burns, no issues. The 4 second burn was 50pcs. plastisol. No issues.
