PROVIN TECHNOS GETS A HEAD START ON PRINTPACK INDIA 2019
Provin Technos-Techno Roll announce joint venture in India
V
inay Kaushal began the press
conference on the day before
the Printpack show by saying,
“Printpack has been a lucky show for
us starting from 2015, where we par-
ticipated with 156 square meters, to our
250 square meter stand in 2017. And
now at this show we have an even big-
ger stand of 385 square meters.
“From July 2012, in a span of 6
years, we have moved up as one of the
most trusted machinery suppliers and,
according to me, we hold the top posi-
tion in customer service support. At eve-
ry edition of Printpack, we have been
showing new breakthrough technology
through live demonstrations – be it the
first LED UV machine in 2015 or the
Multi wave LED UV lamp in 2017.
“Starting from today, we will give a
demo on all the products on offer from
us in this Printpack. The importance
of the Indian print market should be
understood from the fact that we have
with us 23 top and senior executives
representing several Japanese compa-
nies that we represent.
“In the last 5 years, we have suc-
cessfully sold and installed 70 RMGT
presses across India and have reached
a stable market share of around 20%.
This year, despite tough economic situ-
ation, we were able to ship 16 presses
so far with more coming in before the
financial year ends on 31 March.”
At its stand, Provin is showcasing
an RMGT 920 ST 6-color plus coater
UV press and the Miyakoshi intermit-
tent narrow web hybrid press – the
MLP13C. It has five offset units and
two flexo units. Both presses will run
with UV Energy’s Multi wave LED UV
curing systems which can cure conven-
tional UV ink and varnishes.
PROVIN’S JOINT VENTURE
WITH TECHNO ROLL OF JAPAN
Kaushal went on to make an announce-
ment of Provin’s new joint venture
project in collaboration with Japan’s
Techno Roll, saying, “In our constant
pursuit to provide high-quality solu-
tions to the Indian printing industry, we
are pleased to announce our association
with Techno Roll Japan for manufactur-
ing of high-quality PU and NBR roll-
ers for all types of printing machines
for the Indian market. We are setting up
a joint venture company with Techno
Roll Japan under the name of Techno
Roll-Provin India Pvt. Ltd. We expect
the new company to be operational by
October 2019, subject to all govern-
ment clearances.”
Established in 1979, Techno Roll
Co. Ltd., Japan has five manufactur-
ing units in Japan and various licencees
across the world. Techno Roll is an
OEM supplier to many reputed print-
ing machinery manufacturers in Japan
and other parts of the world. Kaushal
introduced Eeji Asao, president, Eeji
Horrike, manager, International Sales,
and Santosh, International Sales and
Kaibara, assistant manager, Technical,
R&D department of Techno Roll who
will be at Printpack throughout the
show.
Kaushal also revealed that Provin
and RMGT will be showcasing a new
technology that they will put into action
in India for servicing and maintenance
of offset presses. He explained, “We are
also pleased to showcase for the first
time in India, a unique service concept
called ‘Smart Glass.’ This unique inno-
vation was introduced by RMGT during
IGAS 2018 last year and India becomes
the first country outside Japan where
this will now be implemented. With
the implementation of this system, our
customers will be able to get real-time
service support by getting connected to
our service support server using the de-
vice. The device is capable of transfer-
ring live feed with data transfer and on-
the-spot notes, and advice can be given
by the back-end engineer who may be
sitting in Japan, based on the feed given
from the site.”
At Provin’s stand there is another
new technology – a smart concept me-
chanical pile turner from Edics System
in Japan. Kaushal added, “Edics built
this system and holds a patent for the
design. This space-saving, easy-to-
operate pile turning system can be very
useful for Indian customers.”
In answer to a couple of questions
from the trade journalists present,
Kaushal said that the joint venture rub-
ber roller plant will be in the Delhi-
NCR and that its initial annual capacity
will be for manufacturing 20,000 PU
and NBR rubber rollers.
