That is a good speed, I have a 2004 Challenger II, servo drive, we consistently run up to 8 colors with a flash at 600 an hour, fastest with this was a 4 color left chest with a stroke of 8 inches. We ran 860 an hour with two employees. My fastest record was 920 per hour on an old 1989 challenger, don't remember the print, and I was much younger, but we were able to push the platens to make it go faster than a zero. Fun times. And that record was not really ever reproduced, we will do speeds of 800 all the time, but that 900 mark was rare.

I just printed a 6 color no flash on a Hopkins 6 color 4 station MANUAL press at 120 pieces an hour for 2 hours then I was beat! My production dropped down to about 80 pieces an hour until I caught second wind (a good song cme on).
