Flexographic Trade Services wants to help you cut your waste and down time in half.

Is your press room efficiency out of whack? Do you spend more time with the press sitting still than running? Is your waste costing you profits?

If so, then let FTS show you what can be done. In our 2-day hands on training program your press operators will learn:

• How to set your press up the most efficient

way possible.

8-color work in less than 300 feet of stock

and in 30 minutes maximum.
• Color consistency press side.*
• How you can match your color the next time

that job is repeated.*

*The color issue seems to be a big problem in most plants I go in yet it really is one of the easiest things to control when done right.

This program is offered to you in two formats:

• Open class
This class is open to all companies. Class size is kept to 8 attendees or less.

• Custom class
This is a class set up strictly for one company only. Class size is kept at 10 or less.
