Thursday 20. August 2009 - Bobst Group Business Area Flexible Materials will present an advanced range of technology and process solutions in slitting & rewinding, short-run gravure printing, coating & laminating and flexo printing for the global labelstock industry at LabelExpo Europe 2009 in Brussels, from 23rd to 26th September, on stand 7L115 in Hall 7.

ATLAS is the world leader in technically advanced centre-surface slitter rewinders for high volume production of all types of labelstock (paper/paper, paper/film & film/film). The technically advanced 2 metre wide Universal LS slitter, with individual shaftless rewind arms and the OCS-2 duplex rewind shaft slitter are the most successful models. ATLAS provides unique rewinding technology for filmic/synthetic material as low as 50 micron, at speeds up to 750 m/min (2460 ft/min) and rewind diameters to 1250 mm (49.2 in). Enhanced automation systems also dramatically reduce machine downtime for job changeovers & short runs.

TITAN is a world leading manufacturer of secondary slitter rewinders for flexible packaging materials, labelstock, paper, film and laminates. The TITAN SR8 twin-shaft cantilever slitter rewinder is particularly suitable for slitting narrower width labelstock materials for smaller manufacturers and printing converters, with differential rewind shafts, rapid job changeovers (for shorter production runs) and up to 1800 mm (71 in) web width. A semi-automatic slit reel unloading system is available with other reel handling systems, as options.

ROTOMEC has a comprehensive range of gravure printing presses providing various solutions, each delivering specific customer benefits in various market sectors. The modular design of the MW 60/80 medium web sleeve press can provide in-line special applications like UV or EB curing, die-cutting, lamination, reel-to-reel or reel-to-sheet delivery and is particularly suited to label printing. The range of ROTOMEC coating & laminating equipment comprises high performance solutions to produce high quality composite materials for self-adhesive labelstock using a variety of different process applications.

FISCHER & KRECKE CI flexo presses meet the requirements of the most demanding package printing applications with varied repeat lengths and medium to super-wide printing widths. At LabelExpo Europe 2009, FISCHER & KRECKE will provide comprehensive information on its latest models and innovations including the revolutionary smartGPS (Graphic Positioning System), which makes impression and registration setting a thing of the past.
