Ray Bounsall joins Ferag Australia as senior sales manager
“We are very pleased to welcome Ray to the Ferag team at a time when the Lüscher CTP series continues to go from strength to strength,” said Markus Haefeli, Ferag Australia managing director. “We have been experiencing very solid growth in the electronic prepress sector since we expanded our operations into CTP. Ray’s appointment will provide us with valuable experience and expertise in this field.”
The expansion of Ferag Australia’s support for Lüscher comes in the wake of a successful drupa 2004 exhibition for the Swiss-based manufacturer that included the 500th worldwide sale of its XPose! thermal CTP system. The company also launched its largest platesetter to date, the 32-page XPose! 190 CTP device that can image plates up to 1500 x 2100mm in size.
“The Lüscher systems are clearly an exceptionally well-designed and made product, as you might expect from a Swiss engineering company,” said Bounsall. “They encompass everything from entry-level four-up systems right up to some of the largest platesetters on the market and they incorporate some unique features that make them ideal for high quality production work in the commercial and packaging markets.
“I know that since Lüscher was introduced a few months ago, the response from users in Australia has been very positive indeed. There have been a number of key installations to date with more to come and I am confident that we can continue to build on this success.”
