MPS announced the successful
installation of an EF 430 flexo press for Russian label printer AzimutPrint.
The EF press, a second MPS flexo press for AzimutPrint, will primarily print
industrial, food and commodity self-adhesive labels. AzimutPrint previously
purchased an MPS EF 410 flexo press with 10 colours and Automated Print Control
(APC), which prints and converts comprehensive designs for oil, pharmaceutical
and cosmetic labels.
AzimutPrint’s second EF press is
equipped with 7 colours, UV dryers, a die-station, matrix rewinder, web video
and a low tension control rewind system. Another feature of the EF flexo press
is gearless technology; as there is no connection between the plate roller and
the impression cylinder there is no friction, resulting in no gear marking.
Superior performance from their
first MPS press along with exceptional after-sales service and support from
local MPS agent Ogard led to AzimutPrint opting for a second MPS flexo press
investment. AzimutPrint’s printing manager Mr.Artem Volkov comments: “Our first
MPS EF press proved to be a versatile printing press: stable print quality,
flexibility and performance are a given on this press. Even when running more challenging
print jobs, we achieved optimum production results. We also valued the
availability of local sales and service support from Ogard, who is always quick
to respond with any advice or assistance we need. It just simply made sense to
invest once again in MPS.”
Founded in 1996, AzimutPrint
specializes in the production of self-adhesive labels, wraparound labels,
carton board and synthetic tags. Highly qualified and experienced staff and the
latest high-tech machinery has led to Azimut’s strong position in the Russian
market of high-quality self-adhesive labels. AzimutPrint employs 90 people and
is located in Yaroslavl city, an industrial region North-East from Moscow.
