Dion Label Printing, a digital and flexo label printer in Westfield, MA, USA, has announced the installation of a second MPS servo converting press to provide greater capacity and diversity in its product offerings.
The new press, an MPS EF-430 hybrid press, allows printing on 17" wide substrates from thin films to heavy tags. The press uses both UV and water-based inks and has many rail-mounted accessories for multiple web configurations. Integrated CC1 controls allow for extremely precise and consistent registration.
This new press, as well as an earlier model MPS press at Dion, have also been equipped with AVT video inspection equipment. With high-speed, high-resolution line-scanners, these server-based systems monitor 100% of the web, providing operators with immediate feedback on possible defects while digitally mapping the results for editing on newly installed inspection equipment.
“This press has definitely exceeded expectations and will surely extend our ability to meet our customers’ challenges in the years ahead,” says John Dion, president of Dion Label Printing.
Dion’s first MPS press was purchased in 2008.
