Halm Jet Press: Modular Enclosure & Brand Modernization

Vertex was commissioned by Halm Industries Inc. to modernize their line of high-speed printing presses. The primary goal was to refresh the appearance of legacy models and align them with the sleek, high-tech aesthetics of the Jet EM and EM SuperJet series.

Cross-Platform Modular Strategy

To maximize manufacturing efficiency, our engineers devised a modular strategy that allowed a single design language to scale across the entire product range.

  • Universal Cover Design — Engineered a system where covers for smaller presses were adapted to fit larger 4 and 5-color machines, significantly reducing unique part counts and tooling costs.
  • Unified Brand Identity — Maintained visual consistency across the entire series, from two-color to five-color models, creating a strong, modern presence for the new product line.
  • Modernized Industrial Aesthetics — Transitioned from legacy "industrial-block" styling to a streamlined, professional look that reflects the precision of the underlying technology.

This project highlights Vertex PD’s expertise in industrial machine design and strategic enclosure engineering. We help manufacturers unify their product lines for better market impact and lower production overhead.
