From September 11-13, Muller Martini will be
in Chicago at Label Expo Americas to showcase its innovative Variable Sleeve
Offset Printing press (VSOP), which provides a one-stop solution for a variety
of packaging needs, including shrink sleeves, wet-glue, wrap-around and in-mold
labels; films, laminates and food packaging; liquid packaging; and carton
printing.
The VSOP features a unique sleeve technology
which allows print sizes to be changed without having to remove entire inserts,
making the process quick, simple, and highly efficient considering the infinite
variety of print lengths inherent in packaging. In addition, the press delivers
the first-class printing quality needed to meet the demanding requirements of
the packaging market.
Muller’s new generation VSOP features an
impressive list of functionality and operational advancements, including:
New ergonomic construction, allowing for
easier machine access for sleeve changes and daily operation
Innovative electronic control technology
utilizing fewer components for greater machine reliability
Efficient external roller setting feature
reduces the initial and operational roller setting time by half
Optimized ink train design delivers
consistently reproducible ink settings
Modular design philosophy enables flexible
machine configurations for a wide range of hybrid packaging printing
applications
At Label Expo Americas, Muller Martini’s
booth will display a VSOP print tower which has been modified with a
see-through doorway. This provides booth visitors a unique perspective to the
VSOP’s changeover technology. The demonstration reveals how easy and fast it is
to change the sleeves and begin a new job.
The VSOP’s flexibility and proficiency make
it the most dynamic web press technology available in today’s packaging market,
affording numerous opportunities for label, flexible packaging, folding carton,
and packaging printers to grow their business.
Label Expo Americas takes place September
11-13 at the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center in Rosemont, Illinois (a
suburb of Chicago). Muller Martini will be at Booth #820.
