1993 Heidelberg GTO 52-1 in Bangladesh For Sale: The “Golden Era” Press
If you are a printing press owner in Fakirapool, Arambagh, Sutrapur, or anywhere in Bangladesh, you know one truth: Old is Gold. And when it comes to offset printing, no machine proves this better than the Heidelberg GTO 52-1.
Specifically, the 1993 Model.
You are likely searching for a 1993 Heidelberg GTO 52-1 in Bangladesh for sale because you know this specific vintage represents the perfect balance of German mechanical engineering and modern reliability—without the headache of overly complex electronics found in newer models.
Total Import Solution is proud to offer this legendary machine, imported directly from Europe or sourced via trusted global auctions, delivered straight to your press floor.
Why the 1993 GTO 52-1 is the “King” of Dhaka’s Print Market
The 1993 model is special. It sits in the “sweet spot” of Heidelberg’s manufacturing history.
1. The Perfect Mechanical Balance
By 1993, Heidelberg had perfected the GTO 52 mechanism.
-
Less Electronics: Unlike the post-2000 Printmaster models, the 1993 GTO 52-1 relies heavily on mechanical gears and levers. In Bangladesh, where humidity and power fluctuations can fry circuit boards, a mechanical beast is far easier and cheaper to maintain.
-
Durable Casting: The iron casting from this era is legendary. These machines don’t vibrate; they sit like a tank, ensuring dot-on-dot registration even after 30 years.
2. Ideal Size for the Bangladeshi Market
-
Sheet Size: 36 x 52 cm (14 x 20 inches).
-
Why it matters: It fits Double A4 (A3+) perfectly with gripper margin and bleed. Whether you are printing cash memos, pharmacy cartoons, flyers, or office stationery, this is the most profitable size format in Bangladesh.
3. The “Plus Version” Features
A 1993 model typically comes with the “Plus” version upgrades compared to older 1980s models:
-
N+P Unit Ready: Most 1993 models are geared for Numbering and Perforating units (essential for cash memos).
-
Quick Plate Clamps: Faster make-ready times compared to older screw-bar systems.
