Together we will go over the ways to tell if a Heidelberg Platen is in proper working order. We will assess operation and function of key systems, noting simple fixes and non-negotiables in a hands on way. Included will be a pragmatic discussion of actual costs to fix broken parts and when it’s best to walk away from a bad press. We will check out the overall mechanical condition of the windmill at Hamilton and use it as the basis for our discussions. Class participation will enrich the experience, so if you have a press with any issues please note them and we can discuss them. This class is ideal for the printer who is looking to expand their operations and buy their first Heidelberg but will also be valuable to the expert.
Ben will be presenting two identical half-day workshops. Please do not register for both sessions.
