MPS announced its debut
participation alongside its Chinese distributor Jebsen Industrial at Labelexpo
Asia 2013, held December 3rd-6th at Shanghai. The tenth anniversary and sixth
edition of Asia’s biggest label and converting industry event promises to be
the largest in its history. Show visitors are welcomed to stand G17 in hall E2
to learn about the recently broadened range of MPS flexo and offset printing
presses from the EB, EF and EXL series, available in print widths ranging from
280 to 660mm.
New extended EF multi-substrate
flexo press line Unveiled at Labelexpo 2013, the extended MPS EF
multi-substrate flexo press line, now available in three versions: EF, EF-APC
and EF-APC Advanced, ranging in cost and level of automation. APC (Automated
Print Control) allows pre-programming of print pressure settings and enables
the press operator to store and recall repeat jobs. The EF press line is the
premium solution for both labels and unsupported film materials for flexible
packaging. The EF press from MPS is one of the most productive flexo systems in
the industry.
EXL offset and packaging presses
The EXL offset is a full rotary
offset combination press for high-speed and high-end label production. The
innovative press has variable sleeves for different repeat lengths. With APC on
all pressure settings, MPS EXL offset offers the fastest job changeover,
highest predictability and repeatable print quality available today in offset
combination printing.
The EXL packaging press is
ideally-suited for wide-web flexible packaging printing, providing an
economical alternative. It offers extremely quick change-over time and
remarkably little set-up waste guaranteeing optimal printing and converting.
MPS presses are designed with an
absolute focus on the lowest cost price per 1,000 labels. Manufactured in the
Netherlands, all MPS machinery meet the highest standards in terms of print
quality and ease of use.
China emerging market for MPS
MPS views Asia as an important
area for future company growth, with China as the key emerging market. MPS Area

MPS at China Print held in May this year, we are once again teaming up with
Jebsen Industrial at Labelexpo Asia to present our innovative flexo and offset
printing presses ranging from cost-efficient to fully-automated press
capabilities. We look forward to further engaging with label and packaging
