User (October 2026): "the factory should have more space for duplex
setups than classic, we will mainly focus on special prints and not mono
colours plan it to be 60/40 duplex classic".
- Press hall (~870 m2) planned 60/40 by floor: four Duplex bays along the
visitor corridor and six Classic positions in the second row (440 + 300
= ~740 m2 at 110 / 50 m2), the rest open for mould carts and staging;
the launch plant fills one of each, growth adds Duplex systems first.
Replaces "room for ten more Classics".
- Full hall: 8 semi-automatic presses + 6 Classics, 57/43 by press count,
~1,250 to 1,410 records/h gross, ~3.6 to 4.7M a year on the scale.md
basis (was 4.7 to 5.8M for 2 Duplex + 11 Classics); ~2.1 to 2.5 t/h
steam and up to ~1.8 MW cooling, still a utility phase of its own.
By hourly output the six automatic Classics still press more than the
eight semi-automatic presses (estimate).
- pressing-line.md, scale.md (capacity table, utilities), site-candidates
.md, crane-workshop-tours.md, roadmap.md, README (the FreeCAD Payap
model still draws the earlier layout; noted, not redrawn).
- Calculator: preset "Full hall 60/40 (4 D + 6 C)", fleet ladder Duplex
first (1+1, 2+1, 3+2, 4+3, 4+6) plus the same floor Classic-led (2+11)
and Duplex-only (7+0) for comparison; plant view reserves 4 Duplex
bays and 6 Classic positions.
- Business plan draft 0.2 rebuilt (capacity table row, plot fit, layout).
Checks: renderer 720 checks pass (node budget 2,700 for the Duplex-heavy
stress preset, 60 fps), calculator regression 0 fails, level selector and
page checks clean at 390 / 1024 / 1440 px dark and light; PDF 47 pages
with a filled table of contents.
The investor business plan (docx + pdf) rebuilt for the launch plant
decided in October 2026: one Duplex system and one Classic, Pheenix
galvanics with zero discharge, the Sibert line, a Sillitoe cutting room,
modular steam and cooling (rooms for four), cassette and CD-R; no bridge
stampers, no outsourced cutting; second Duplex as a growth option.
- Part A: executive summary (what changed since 0.1, the numbers, the
180M / 216M answer, first release marked open), reading guide, two
price points (ResurRec and Record Industry), anatomy rewritten for
Sillitoe, Pheenix, Sibert, Duplex + Classic, lead times without bridge
stampers, new 4.8 artist platform, cassette 4.9, CD 4.10.
- Part B: traceability with ERPNext as system of record, metrology launch
tier as the investor's choice, QC, efficiency (PEA tariff, utility
modules, fuel open, Chinese boilers and DIW rules), site (Mueang Chi,
Payap zoning result), building blocks, safety, BOI and licences with
galvanics in the first factory licence.
- Part C: launch-plant investment table, the investor's question and
levers, tranches, currency, operating picture of the launch plant,
timeline with the metal path on the critical path, commissioning
sequence and why the whole chain at launch, team, 22 risks, 17 phase 0
actions, the ask.
- plan_lib: grid column widths so LibreOffice keeps table widths.
- export_pdf.py: LibreOffice UNO export that fills the table of
contents (47 pages).
- README: total investment, revenue model and business plan bullets.
The docs and the plant page had labelling as a finishing step after the
press. On a record press the bottom label, the cake and the top label go
in between the stampers every cycle and the mold bonds the paper into the
vinyl; the oven only pre-dries them. Corrected everywhere the process is
described:
- process-flow.md: labels are a parallel input to pressing with their own
row (print inspection, oven, lot per cycle); stage 6 loads label, cake,
label; stage 7 is trim, sleeve, shrink
- process-flow.drawio (+ regenerated png/pdf): label input now feeds
stage 6, not stage 7
- README vision list and the business plan source (regenerated docx/pdf):
pressing paragraph explains the pressed-in label, finishing no longer
claims to label
- plant-operation.html: label dry oven station feeds two label discs
into the press with every cake, the cake in the mold shows its labels,
the cycle log records the label lot, finishing is sleeve + shrink
Leased land instead of purchase, in-house cassette duplication, CD-R
duplication with CD replication shown as a separate investor decision,
Ploy Printing as packaging partner and intended co-investor, and a
dedicated section on traceability, metrology, QC and efficiency.
