Re-base scale, pressing line, roadmap, revenue model and calculator on the launch plant
Deploy test site / deploy (push) Successful in 48s

Launch plant (user, October 2026): one Duplex system and one Classic,
with cutting and galvanics in-house, everything in one capital round.

- scale.md: capacity table now launch plant 0.71-0.97M records/yr, the
  second Duplex as a growth option; launch utilities (450-540 kg/h on
  B-1/B-2, ~390 kW on 2 x 250 kW); calculator figure ~0.94M.
- pressing-line.md: launch plant section on top; five-press fleet kept as
  the layout fleet the hall and backbone are built for.
- roadmap.md: long-lead orders for the launch plant, no bridge stampers
  or outsourced cutting, commissioning order, what stays revenue-gated.
- revenue-model.md: operating picture of the launch plant: central
  revenue ~3.75M USD, EBITDA ~1.6M, operating profit ~1.1M, payback ~4
  yr on 216M THB, break-even ~0.3M records; adverse corner cannot cover
  depreciation. Five-press table kept and labelled.
- fleet-calculator.html: start fleet 1 Duplex + 1 Classic, target 850k,
  capex base 6.55M (cases 8.9 / 6.55 / 4.9M), Duplex beyond one, chiller
  500 kW, imported machinery 2.3M, ladder from the launch plant.
- total-investment.md: superseded note updated.

# Pressing Line: Equipment Plan
## Current plan: an all-Newbilt fleet of five presses (October 2026)
## Launch plant: one Duplex system and one Classic (October 2026)
Decided (user, October 2026): the plant launches with **one Newbilt Duplex
system** (two HRP 12 presses, EX 50 main and EX 35 colour extruder) and
**one Newbilt Classic**, bought in one capital round with the galvanics,
stamper-prep and cutting room and commissioned in sequence
([total investment](../finance/total-investment.md#launch-plant-october-2026)).
That is ~0.71 to 0.97 million records a year on two shifts
([scale](../scale.md#production-capacity)). The second Duplex system below
is a growth option with its room, utility modules and ring-main tees
reserved, not part of the investment. The five-press fleet stays the
layout the hall and the utility backbone are built for.
## Layout fleet: an all-Newbilt fleet of five presses (October 2026)

path would have carried.
- **Phasing.** The Newbilt Single 2.1 system of the 2024 quote (one press,
one extruder) is the launch configuration and the first half of Duplex

The second press and the EX 35 complete system 1; system 2 and the

launch plant buys the whole of system 1 (second press and EX 35) and the
Classic at once; system 2 is the growth step ([scale](../scale.md) capacity table,
