Brands[edit]

Do you know any other brand of record press? There was a brand out of Denmark if I remember correctly called "xxx and Johanssen".

There was also am automatic press said to be made in Taiwan.

Also, I have blueprints in Japanese for an automatic press, but no brand name. The blueprints are in an A3 format book about 1" thick. Any ideas of a Japanese maker of record presses?

I am quite sure the Philips presses I saw that came out of PolyGram New Zealand were branded "Kamal". Any comment on this?

So, are there any other brands out there? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.213.61.188 (talk • contribs)

No longer in production?[edit]

The last record presses ever made are said to be those built and supplied by Alpha Toolex to Melodiya Records (USSR) in the mid 80s.

So are all the record presses in use today of 1980s or earlier vintage? 217.155.20.163 10:28, 1 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, all the record presses in use today were made well before the mid 80s. Most presses are thirty years old and I know of one plant using presses made in 1962 or 1963. In the 1990s CBS Australia were using presses made in the 1960s if not earlier. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.216.74.124 (talk) 07:28, 1 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Spelling[edit]

Please don't edit my article if you don't know anything about record pressing. Standard record sizes are 7", 10" or 12" and a metric conversion is not standard when discussing records. The language of this article is ENGLISH and not AMERICAN so please don't go changing the terminology or my spelling. Thanks in advance. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 60.229.25.118 (talk • contribs)

This is not your article. It was first created by User:48v, an American editor, without any spellings that would indicate US or UK style. The single reference at that time was an American book.

Certainly it is true that someone using IP addresses in Australia, possibly yourself, has expanded the article several times. That does not make it belong to you, nor does it establish UK spelling. Binksternet (talk) 11:03, 7 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
