Digital print is moving faster. Finishing needs to keep up.

In the latest Commit to Print episode, Graphco President, Chris Manley, shares what’s new with Foliant, including the release of the Vega 530.

For years, the Vega 400 has been a strong fit for digital print environments. The Vega 530 builds on that foundation by giving printers access to a larger format and a noticeable jump in throughput.

As Chris explains, the Vega 530 expands capability up to 21” × 40”, making it a strong match for HP Indigo users and a wide range of commercial applications.

Here’s what stands out:
• Larger sheet size to support more applications
• Increased speed (3,500+ sheets/hour on the Vega 530 vs. ~2,300 on the Vega 400)
• A clearer path to keeping finishing aligned with digital press output

As digital presses continue to push productivity, finishing can’t afford to fall behind. The benefit of the Vega is straightforward: lamination keeps pace, so everything downstream runs smoother and more profitably.

Tune in now and see what the Vega 530 could unlock for your operation.👇

Bender Inc. isn’t just adding new equipment, they’re rewriting the economics of print.

With the installation of an 8-color RMGT 970 Long Perfector with LED curing, the St. Louis-based commercial printer has transformed how work moves through its pressroom. It’s now faster, leaner, and more efficient than ever.

“This press is a true productivity multiplier,” said CEO Dave Bender. “We’re now producing double-sided work in a single pass with fewer touchpoints, less labor, and dramatically faster turnaround… every impression now counts two-for-one.”

What’s driving the impact?
• 4/4 printing in a single pass — eliminating extra handling and cycle time
• True single-operator performance — slashing labor costs
• Instant LED curing — no drying time or spray powder
• Up to 15,000 sheets per hour with rapid makereadies
• Lower energy per finished sheet — more than 2x efficiency vs. previous equipment

The result is shorter lead times, higher consistency, and a cost structure built for scale.

For Bender, it’s more than a press upgrade; it’s an Unfair Advantage™.

🔥 We’ve Found Your Spark—Thank You for Sharing It with Us at ISA.

A big thank you to everyone who stopped by the Graphco booth at ISA Expo. It was great to connect, talk shop, and explore what’s possible for the future of dimensional signage production.

At the show, we had the chance to demonstrate how the SD-Italy Augusta F150R PRO with Auto Stud Welding is helping shops work smarter by:

⚡ Streamlining production through one integrated workflow
⚡ Reducing labor and manual touchpoints
⚡ Increasing speed, accuracy, and overall output

For a lot of people, there’s a moment when it clicks. The moment they realize this could genuinely change how their shop operates.

That’s what we mean when we say, We’ve Found Your Spark.

Now it’s about turning that spark into real results.

Let’s keep the conversation going.

Drop a comment, send us a message, or connect with our team to take a deeper look at how this could fit into your workflow.

We’ve Found Your Spark.

We’re set up and ready at ISA Sign Expo!

If you’re at the show, stop by Booth #1015 and take a look at what Graphco has on the floor. We’re showcasing the SD-Italy Augusta F150R PRO Hybrid CNC Router paired with Auto Stud Welding, and it’s a setup built to help sign shops produce dimensional letters faster, more accurately, and with less manual work in between.

That means:

✨ Perfect stud alignment
✨ Faster production of dimensional letters
✨ Reduced rework and labor
✨ A seamless routing-to-stud welding workflow

We’ll also be doing live “Do the Math” presentations each day so you can see the real numbers behind the process and what this kind of system can mean for production.

If you’re looking for a better way to handle dimensional signage, come see us at Booth #1015.

We’ve Found Your Spark. Now Watch What Happens Next.

At Graphco, innovation isn’t just something we talk about—it’s something our customers put into action every day.

That’s exactly what happened at Awning Innovations.
After finding their spark with the first SD Augusta F150R Pro, they didn’t hesitate—they doubled down.

After just one year with their first system, the results spoke for themselves:
• Replaced five legacy cutting systems with one machine
• Increased workflow capacity by 35%
• Automated a previously labor-intensive, two-operator process
• Achieved faster, more accurate production across a wide range of materials

When a company invests in the same technology twice, it’s not a trend—it’s proof.

Now it’s your turn to experience the power behind that decision.

After 50 years, Graphco is stepping into its next chapter.

We’re proud to announce new ownership as Jeremy Gattozzi and John Berger have acquired the company—positioning Graphco for continued growth and long-term investment.

This transition came together over the past year. It began with a simple question about the future—at a pizza shop in Bainbridge, Ohio—and evolved into a deliberate process of spending time inside the business, building relationships with our team, customers, and vendor partners, and aligning on a shared vision for what comes next.

Jeremy has already been working within the organization, while John brings decades of experience building and growing businesses. Together, they share a deep appreciation for what defines Graphco and a commitment to continuing “The Unfair Advantage” approach that has guided the company for decades.

We’re proud of what has been built—and focused on what comes next.

Importantly, the foundation remains strong. Chris Manley will continue as President, and Theresa Manley will remain Chief Financial Officer. Our leadership team, organization, and commitment to serving customers remain unchanged.

Celebrating 125 years in business takes more than legacy. It requires continuous evolution.

That’s exactly what Lawton Connect has demonstrated with the installation of the RMGT 970ST-5+CC five-color press, equipped with Insta.Color™ makeready automation, a fully integrated aqueous and UV coater, and dual LED and ECO UV curing systems.

This strategic investment enhances both performance and creative capability—delivering faster makereadies, greater color consistency, and the ability to produce high-impact specialty finishes such as soft-touch, spot UV, and chemical emboss effects.

“Our company has been serving clients for 125 years because we continue to invest in the right technology at the right time,” says Ty Koon, Owner of Lawton Connect.

By expanding into a larger 25” x 38” format, Lawton Connect is also realizing measurable productivity and ROI advantages:
• More sellable pieces per sheet
• Fewer sheets required for comparable jobs
• Reduced labor touchpoints
• Lower cost per finished piece
• Faster time-to-market

At Graphco, we’re proud to support partners who recognize that long-term success is built on innovation, adaptability, and a commitment to excellence.
