Label Leaders purchases ROTOCONTROL EDM200 Flexo Machine

Thursday 29. July 2010 - Installation is scheduled for mid-August by ROTOTEC, the local Agent for ROTOCONTROL throughout South Africa

ROTOCONTROL today announced another order for the EDM200 semi-rotary, servo-driven UV-flexo machine placed by Label Leaders in South Africa.  The order was placed by Pascal Aengenvoort, Director from ROTOTEC, the local Agent for ROTOCONTROL throughout South Africa who will also manage the installation scheduled for mid-August.
 
Founder and chairman of Label Leaders, Ben Raubenheimer and Factory Manager Craig Stange were both impressed with the superior print quality and speed of the EDM200 Machine.  “We plan to utilise the EDM200 in short-run production of generic labels requiring a change in the description of the product” states Craig Stange.  “The speed and ease of job setup and changeover in addition to the flexibility in producing smaller runs of unique labels led to our decision to invest in the ROTOCONTROL EDM200.”
 
Launched in 1995, Label Leaders is a nationally recognised company and produces a wide range of flexographically printed labels for a diversity of industries including retail products, wine, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals. Label Leaders utilises cutting edge technology and is at the forefront of latest developments in the label industry.
 
The EDM200 is the world’s first ever designed semi-rotary, servo-driven UV-flexo machine, using
sleeve technology for both print and anilox cylinders, and working with chambered doctor blade technology. The machine is designed to work mainly as an over-printing machine and has been specifically developed to provide very economic production of short-run and fast turnaround for labels, tickets and tags.  An informative video educating Converters on the features and benefits of the EDM200 is available through ROTOCONTROL.
