In conversation Danny Gazit emphasises the Apollo system's potential to revolutionise Screen printing by addressing current industry pain points through innovative digital technology.

Key Takeaways:

Digital Transformation is Inevitable: The screen printing industry is rapidly shifting towards digital solutions due to challenges like shorter production runs and labour shortages. The Apollo system represents a critical technological response to these industry pressures.

Massive Operational Efficiency: One Apollo system can replace three carousels and 15 employees while maintaining the same production capacity, dramatically reducing labour costs and increasing operational efficiency.

Production Flexibility is Critical: The system enables manufacturers to handle runs as small as 1, 2 or 3 units alongside industrial manufacture profitably, which was previously impossible with traditional screen printing methods. This allows for more agile and responsive production.

Ease of Adoption: The technology is remarkably user-friendly. A seasoned screen printer (Tony Palmer) learned to operate the system in just 15 minutes, demonstrating the low barrier to entry for digital printing technology.

Future-Focused Technology: The Apollo system is designed with scalability in mind, currently handling T-shirts and preparing to expand to hoodies, with potential future capabilities for neon colors and more complex materials.
