Why integrate an HMJ Tech solution into our processes?
We decided to incorporate a solution like the one from HMJ tech to address several key challenges:
Modernize the processing and preparation of our inks, anticipating regulatory changes, and aligning with our CSR commitments.
Better manage our inventory, resulting in a significant reduction in immobilized volumes.
Continue our ongoing improvement efforts focusing on key areas:
o The precision of our formulations,
o The stability of direct tones
o Reducing machine downtime (goal achieved: right the first time).
Why did we choose HMJ tech?
HMJ tech’s growing reputation in
the market naturally led us to this
choice. However, it was the ease
of communication, mutual trust,
and consistently excellent
relationships that truly set it apart.
The outstanding partnership with
the French importer, Laurent
Jacquemin (ACT-Print), made a
difference, alongside our longstanding
collaboration with Flint
Group.
Finally, the automatic cleaning
system and the touch-based
human-machine interface make the
tool extremely intuitive and perfectly
suited to our team’s needs.
Feedback and Observed Benefits
We received effective support from the Canadian technician during installation, and the quality of HMJ tech’s technical support enabled us to quickly and independently master the system.
Today, we have equipment that is simple, reliable, and fully integrated into our process.
Recommendation
The Canadian after-sales service is outstanding. Despite the distance and time difference, we’ve always had someone available, and our requests have always been promptly addressed. Kudos to HMJ tech for their professionalism, approachability, and the quality of their support.
