BST Pro Mark and Mark Andy have continued an eighteen year tradition of cooperation and partnership by further enhancing their working relationship by installing a VSR slitter/rewinder at their headquarters.

BST Pro Mark’s demo Center in Elmhurst, Illinois now includes a Mark Andy VSR100 rewinder, and is used to demonstrate both companies equipment.  BST Pro Mark has mounted a Shark 100% inspection system with both black and white and color cameras on the Mark Andy VSR rewinder, and the combination is used to demonstrate the full capabilities of both the rewinder and the 100% inspection system.

Said Greg Palm, vice president of Mark Andy, “We have had a strong business relationship with BST Pro Mark for both web guides and inspection systems for many years.  We are always looking for unique ways to reach out to our customers and to effectively show the capabilities and competitive advantages of our equipment.  Having the VSR for demonstrations at Pro Mark’s Demo Center gives us that extended capability.”

“The combination of the Shark 100% Print Inspection System and the Mark Andy VSR inspection rewinder is a perfect marriage. The two systems exemplify the leading edge technology that both BST Pro Mark and Mark Andy provide to the narrow web converting marketplace. These two products are a winning combination for converters world wide. They help our mutual customers meet the ever increasing quality requirement of today’s print buyers” said John Thome, general manager of BST Pro Mark.
