‹If a proof and not a testpress can be accepted, then choose at least the quality of the FAG Swissproof 40. FAG and SWISS are your guarantee for the quality of the press and the proofs. › FAG Swiss Proof 40 order sheet, around 1970

The FAG Swiss Proof 40 is the less technisized brother of the FAG Control 405. There was no adjustable bed and no power driven cylinder available, which made this press much lighter than the FAG Control 405. With early models, even the power driven inking system was an optional feature.Aswell as the FAG Swiss Proof 52 and the FAG Control 525-MRS, the Swiss Proof 40 was officially presented at Drupa 1972 in Düsseldorf, Germany. FAG completed their very high standing Control modell line with the MRS update and the two simpler – they call it the «Volkswagen» of the proofing presses – Swiss Proof model line.
