The death of the duplicator??

[BertThePrinter]

Can anybody tell me if there is still a duplicator press being manufactured? Of course all the American press makers are long gone, and I have been told that Ryobi and Heidelberg are only selling existing machines and are not manufacturing new "Duplicator" presses. What about Hamada? Does anybody have any insight or inside knowledge? I guess I am just an old dinosaur!

Heidelberg is manufacturing the QM46 here in the US, under the name BaumPrint 18. Baum folder is owned by Heidelberg, I spoke to them not to long ago about one of these presses. I think he said they are making about 6 a month and they are built to order right now.

Hamda has been gone for a couple of years.
