Production capacity improvement in DUNAV PRESS AD

The current project proposal is aimed at purchase and commissioning of 1 automatic cutting machine and 1 folder gluer. Serious problems in the production process related to limited capacity for acceptance of orders by new clients in the pharmaceutical industry and specifically production of packages for those clients will be overcome by purchasing and maintaining the new machines. Currently the candidate can’t conclude new contracts with big companies in that industry because it can’t produce the necessary production volumes. Limitations in the production process arose from the insufficient technological availability in Section “Finishing processes”. While the first two sections of the production cycle related to pre-print and printing are distinguished for their high-tech and highly productive equipment, section “Finishing processes” has only two cutting machines, one of them depreciated as well as one folder gluer line which can’t take the production coming from the previous production sectors. The envisaged cutting machine will replace the old one and the new folder gluer line will supplement the capacity of the existing one. The new machines are high-tech, automated and extremely precise which will lead to increase in the production capacity with more than 15%, increase in the average generated export revenues based on the investment with more than 25% due to the availability for acceptance of new orders from foreign clients as well as increase in the production costs efficiency with more than 16% due to decrease in the prime cost of packages due to resource efficiency improvement. After the new cutting machine is installed, the old one can be used for cutting of other product groups manufactured by Dunav Press, different from packages, which will additionally increase the capacity of the candidate and optimize the production processes.
