Flexographic Technical Association (FTA) has named Gidue’s Digital Flexo Excellence technology the winner of its 2015 Technical Innovation Award in the Heavy Metal category. The award was presented at FTA’s Annual Awards Banquet, held in conjunction with the association’s Annual Forum in Nashville, TN, USA.
Federico D’Annunzio, CEO of Nuova Gidue, accepted the award before an audience of hundreds of package printing and converting professionals.
The strength behind Digital Flexo Excellence is the utilization of the best aspects of flexo and digital. Its aim to optimize the flexo print process is accomplished by a design that automates common, time intensive and operator dependent press tasks, which results in higher productivity, lowered costs, greater production flexibility, consistent quality and ease of operation.
Additional benefits brought about by the technology are: setup waste of less than 33-ft. (10-m.); setup time of less than one minute; consistent quality; a largely digitized workflow and less reliance on operators; a more easily predictable cost/profit model for each job; multi substrate handling; lowered operating costs; and improved sustainability.
The suite of technologies that comprise Digital Flexo Excellence include; Flower, PrintTutor, ExcelPrint, DigiGap, ExcelDie, ExcelCut, QuickCut and DigiMount.
Gidue believes that the technology changes the industry by giving flexographers access to new markets, a viable path into the future of package printing and many other benefits, all built on a foundation of proven technologies and a process favored by the majority of brands.
