Label Technology, Inc., a leader in flexographic
printing and converting of flexible packaging and pressure sensitive labels,
announces that it has installed a new ten-color 26-inch flexographic press for
converting flexible packaging. The new press extends to nine the number of
presses at its Merced, Calif.
The MPS EXL 660 was custom built for Label
Technology by MPS in The Netherlands. The press has ten print stations and is
equipped with digital servo drive technology for accurate web velocity and web
tension as well as a cutting-edge defect detection system and high efficiency
dryers. The press is specifically designed for high productivity flexible
packaging production with state of the art technology that minimizes waste and
reduces set-up time while producing industry leading flexographic print
quality.
“This new press expands our manufacturing
capacity to be able to provide unbeatable turnaround times and service for
flexible packaging while maintaining our high standard for print quality,”
states Dave Bankson, president of Label Technology. “Historically, Label
Technology has invested in leading edge converting technologies to drive down
waste and continually supply improved products and service to our customers,
and this press is the next step in that evolution.”
Label Technology’s commitment to providing their
customers with the highest quality printing is supported by the recent
installation of HD Flexo, an upgraded prepress and digital imaging technology
that utilizes high resolution optics to bring an expanded tonal range, wider
color gamut and smoother vignette printing than standard digital technologies.
In addition to the new flexographic press, the
company has also installed an additional pouch manufacturing line to support
the growth of the market for pre-formed pouch
packaging formats. The Mamata Vega pouch maker doubles the company’s
capabilities for three side seal, zipper and gusseted stand-up pouches.
“Our new press, pouch machine and upgraded
imaging technology ensures we are able to meet the market demand for
quick-turn, high-quality packaging film and pouches that are manufactured in
the United States,”
continues Bankson. “Our culture of employee ownership, pride in our products
and continued improvement is what drives the expansion of our manufacturing
capabilities.”
