The Ultimate Workhorse for the Professional Print Shop
The Takach 4072 isn’t just an etching press; it’s a lifetime investment in your craft. Designed for the artist who refuses to compromise on scale or precision, the 4072 provides the smoothest bed travel and most consistent pressure in the industry. Whether you are pulling delicate intaglio plates, beautifully colored monotypes, or bold relief blocks, this press delivers gallery-quality results every time.
Why Printmakers Choose the Takach 4072 Package:
-
Unrivaled Precision: Equipped with micrometer pressure dials, the 4072 allows for absolute repeatability. Dial in your exact settings and return to them with 100% accuracy—no more guesswork.
-
Effortless Operation: Our signature double-reduction chain and sprocket drive system makes hand-cranking feel weightless, even under extreme pressure.
-
Superior Bed Construction: The 3-inch thick, staggered-grain Hard Rock Maple core eliminates warping, while the phenolic-resin surface stands up to the harshest studio chemicals.
-
Versatility in Printing: With an upper drum that raises 1.25" above the bed, you can seamlessly switch from deep-etched copper plates to thick woodblocks.
