Tensor International LLC, a U.S. manufacturer of single-width web offset press equipment, is pleased to announce the sale of a new pressline to Indonesian book publisher and printer, PT Tiga Serangkai. 

Mike Pavone, Tensor’s COO and VP of sales said, “We are happy to be selected as the OEM of choice by one of the most successful book publishers in this region. Tiga Serangkai’s continued faith in Tensor quality and technical support is greatly appreciated by the Tensor team.”

This is the fifth Tensor press purchased by Tiga Serangkai.  Those presslines are often running 24 hours per day at full speed with small windows of maintenance time allowed.  The presses have performed well under this heavy production schedule, so the company opted to purchase another Tensor press to accommodate demand for a  new book format.

The latest T-1400 4-high tower and T-1 folder, scheduled to ship to Solo, Indonesia from Tensor’s U.S. plant this May, will have a 630 cutoff for the new textbook format.  The T-1400 units are equipped with bearers on both the blanket and plate cylinders, features that are generally standard on Tensor’s T-400BE press design.
