Blueprint for Success
Accurate Graphics’ expanded production capabilities include a computer-to-plate (CTP) workflow and digital printing equipment, as well as new book-making and folding equipment and additional cutters. “We’re doing anything we can to help us stay competitive in the market as it exists today,” said Strom. He conceded the company made the transition to CTP a little late versus some of its competitors. “Within the last three years, we totally got rid of film and cameras and are going direct to plate,” explained Strom. “A good portion of our business is from the digital side, so we’re constantly investing in better machines. We have a cream-of-the-crop [Kodak] NexPress on the way, and hope to have it up and running by mid April. The quality of product that will come off of [the NexPress] and the ability to [then] also offer variable data, is going to help us grow our [digital] business.”
