Box-It (Ireland) realised that its two-hand fed platens were not coping with the increase in orders and wanted to be able to substantially increase productivity. The company initially chose to approach Diecut UK mainly due to its confidence in the vast market experience of Steve Waterhouse, Diecut UK's MD.

Alan Knox and Barry McAllister, of Box It (Ireland) visited a Redline in operation and were so impressed by the production rate and quality of the diecutting that they placed their order for the Redline 1700 with a stripping section along with grip edge and waste removal.

The machine has a maximum diecutting capability of 1700 x 1180mm with variable speed control and mechanical pressure settings. The Redline 1700SF runs at 3500 sheets per hour leaving a 100% stripped blank.

Box It (Ireland) is delighted by the increase in production and say that the Redline has already 'proved its worth'.
