Labelexpo Americas 2014 is Omet’s 13th
consecutive showing in this leading trade show series. And as with all the
previous shows, Omet’s booth #3123 will be packed with innovative new products
for visitors to see. Omet will debut its XFlex X4 press with 10
colors in an expanded 17” version. This press features Omet’s innovative Vision
fully automatic register control system, along with twin servo drives on each
printing unit. The extended 17” width for the XFlex X4 family is especially
targeted for the American market, where printers can easily accommodate the
printing of short and medium runs of labels, along with longer runs of flexible
packaging.
Alongside the XFlex X4 press, Omet will also
be running a 21” XFlex X6 press, demonstrating its modularity, flexibility, and
multi-process capabilities. It can now be configured as a highly efficient
combination printing platform incorporating flexo, offset, screen, gravure,
hot/cold foil (including platen hot foil/embossing), and laminations. The XFlex
X6 press uses lightweight print sleeves and also features Omet’s Vision
register control system. At the show, this press will alternate between
printing shrink sleeves and self-adhesive materials to show its versatility and
highly consistent printing performance.
Omet introduced its JetPlus combination
inkjet press at drupa 2012 with the support of its partner Domino. After
extensive beta testing, the JetPlus inkjet system is now available for printers
around the world. JetPlus is especially suited for high-quality label and
package printing with the capability to print on a variety of different
substrates. Available in print widths of 13”, 17”, and 21”, the JetPlus can run
at speeds up to 164 ft./min. and accommodates water-based and UV inks.
An additional feature available for JetPlus
is the ability to incorporate Omet’s innovative Mono-Twin Cut “Tool-Free”
variable die cutting system, which further enhances its overall productivity
for short- and medium-length production runs. Just snap on the magnetic
flexible die (for any label shape or dimension) to the single magnetic cylinder
and it’s ready to go.
Omet has also expanded its Varyflex product
line to incorporate a 33” wide version. In addition, Omet will soon be
releasing sleeved offset print stations for the Varyflex platform. Omet is driven by engineering excellence.
