Derschlag has equipped its Gallus press with GEW UV curing, and it credits the company for creating energy savings. Derschlag, headquartered in Bad Berleburg, is a printing and converting company specializing in aluminum foil, plastic films and paper.
Derschlag has over 50 years of experience in the printing and converting industry. It holds ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certification and was granted BRC-IoP in 2013.
With over 50 staff, Derschlag provides high-end aluminum foils and plastic films to Europe’s cosmetics, dairy and pharmaceutical industries, with exports going to some 40 countries worldwide. To deliver the precision quality and complexity expected by the major brand-owners and retailers, the firm uses two 45-cm wide Gallus EM 410 flexo presses equipped with GEW E2C UV curing systems on all print stations with chill rollers, complete with finishing techniques.
Derschlag has been able to meet its clients’ growing demand for customization special series and use of low migration inks conforming with regulations for food packaging.
“Integrating the GEW UV system with our MIS enabled us to develop a digital flexo workflow,” says Michael Scholz Jr., authorized officer at Derschlag
With the GEW E2C system, Derschlag achieves better temperature control, higher productions speeds and improved curing performance, and were able to satisfy stringent requirements and generate fresh turnover with new and established customers in the pharmaceutical and food industries.
Scholz adds: “With the RHINO electronic power supply, we experienced a significant reduction in our energy consumption in line with our efforts for ISO 14001 compliance and the German official policy of preference for alternative energy sources.”
The RHINO ArcLED is upgradable to LED UV lamps and is supplied, as standard, with GEW’s Embedded Service package, which allows remote monitoring of the systems’ running condition. This allows the manufacturer’s service engineers to detect and correct out of tolerance parameters. This type of remote preventive maintenance ensures the entire UV system operates at peak performance at all times, thus avoiding unplanned machine stoppages.
