05.10.11 - After several years’ experience in the international market, DCOS has started the first German quality upgrade programme at Torgau Press.

DCOS, a ‘Gazelle’ company based at Kinna in Sweden, offers a complete quality upgrade programme for newsprint machinery. The upgrades are all offered and delivered from our own factory. As a single source, DCOS offers colour register, cutting register, colour density control (in development), drive and control systems, and control stations. Where other suppliers need to use subcontractors, DCOS provides a one-stop service.

‘We need to reduce waste, and we want higher quality in our presswork’, says Andreas Plaul, CEO of Torgau Druck. ‘We looked for alternatives in the market and we found DCOS Sweden AB’. With DCOS, Torgau Druck has discovered a young, innovative partner that thinks about solutions, not problems.

The Goss Uniliner Machine is now completely equipped with new control station, register and cutting controls, as well as fan-out control. Also, the control system has been rebuilt so that the drive system can be re-equipped without problems in the second stage. The quality phase will be ready before the end of the year.

‘The project at Torgau symbolises the greater number of similar projects in the market’, says Mattias Andersson CEO of DCOS Sweden. ‘We offer systems and solutions for the future where we renew the customer’s system step-by-step. We build higher efficiency and higher quality’. When the project is complete, Torgau Press will have secured for itself technically, qualitatively, and economically higher standards for the next ten years as a result of this quality programme from DCOS.
