Edale reports successful first training day

The one day course was held at Edale’s head office in Hampshire and included presentations and practical training from Fujifilm, Cheshire, Lohmann’s, Reproflex3 and Alphasonics.

The course aims to train supervisors, pre-press personal and operators in the different variables that could improve print quality and how to implement them. Half the day was spent listening to presentations and participating in interactive discussions and the other half of the day was based in Edale’s showroom alongside it’s FL-3 flexographic printing machine with hands on experience and practical sessions.

Attending companies were split into smaller groups to allow more one on one time.

Edale’s account manager, Louise Bailey, commented: ’It was great to see so many people getting involved, engaging not only with the suppliers but also each other in group discussions and on the press. As the day concluded the positive feedback was exciting to hear.’

Attendees were said to be impressed with the various subjects covered that contribute to improving print quality, as well as the information that was available on new technologies. ‘What a great day, the interaction was consistent, the atmosphere relaxed and I gained a good insight to improving our print quality’ commented one attendee.

Edale will be holding its next training day, ‘How to improve productivity’, in October.
