M&R Challenger III 12/14 and Sprint 2000

Challenger III from 2010, Sprint 2000 from 2011. Sprint 2000 was bought new by us, Challenger III was bought second hand off the east coast - installed in our shop May 2014. Available approximately mid August. We are moving and installing new equipment instead of moving these into the new building. Full details below.

Challenger III total print count 2.51 million and counting - still in use today up until we move. We will know exact date this can be picked up by about the end of July. Print count from previous shop was 4-5 million. They were rougher prints and we have done a lot part replacement on the press. Head 3 is out of commission, which we find doesn’t affect the press since that is always a cool down station or where the first flash unit is. Press is at 98% right now so just needs a little more work to have no issues at all. It does have slight registration issues at times. Some days are completely problem free, some days take a few adjustments.
-M&R updated the press firmware to the latest that could work with the hardware. Index buttons on heads do double click to lock into place for instance. This reset the counter on the machine.
-Front frame holders were sent into M&R in 2’s to update to sturdier design
2 were completely new with this update process
-All forks and bearings replaced by M&R tech less than a week after initial install
-We have replaced at least 8 of the valves at back of heads
