Live label print jobs will be demonstrated on the new EB flexo press, which is built with a combination of high-quality MPS printing technology, optimal performance and a strong focus on affordability. It is designed to print self-adhesive label jobs at optimal performance while reducing overall printing costs.

With the new EB press, MPS offers a mid-range machine with a much lower entry investment level to accommodate printers and converters seeking this type of solution.
In addition to the EB press, the EF flexo multi-substrate press series will also be demonstrated. This top-selling MPS press type can convert a vast variety of different substrates and designs and can be equipped with a wide range of converting options, including gravure and screen. Automation packages and control systems can extend the productivity of the EF press even further.
