Limpet Labels UK, a specialist in the production of self adhesive labels, has worked with Dantex to add a Screen Truepress L350UV Inkjet Label Press to its portfolio. Limpet believes that having a range of printing technologies is the key to offering customers the best possible quality and service for their requirements. Limpet already runs a Xeikon 3000 digital press along side its flexo machines and now, with the new Truepress, are able to offer high speed UV inkjet.
Truepress Jet L350UV is able to achieve a printing speed of 50 meters per minute and widths up to 322mm, at up to 16.1sq.m per minute and is designed to produce photo-realistic images with simple maintenance. Screen Truepress Jet L350UV digital label press was voted "Best Label Printing Solution" at the 2014 EDP Awards.
Lee Goode, Limpet Labels's managing director, says, “Great savings can be made as there is very little setup, and of course no plates, plus a variety of labels can be run at the same time. Some customers would simply not be able to afford to produce the very high quality labels they do for their extensive product ranges without digital.”
Jon Dudley, sales sirector for Limpet Labels, adds, “Limpet has met the demand for speed and quality with the Truepress. In most cases digital produces a cleaner image than its 'traditionally' printed equivalent and some customers are willing to pay a little more for it on longer run jobs”.
Lee Goode continues, “Digital plays its part within a company already using flexo technology, label printing is a jigsaw puzzle and you need all the pieces; digital is an integral part of that. Incorporating the Truepress was quite easy for us, our press operators have a great deal of experience and have the transferable skills to adapt quickly and successfully. In fact, one of our press operators, Kevin Jones, says the Truepress is 'a printer’s dream.’ We had a great deal of support and training from Dantex from the start and throughout the installation period. Since investing in the new system we are very pleased with its high quality printed results, as too are our customers."
In 2011, Limpet Labels was featured in a L&NW Narrow Web Profile.
