Gallus Innovation Days 2016 lived up to its name. The press manufacturer announced the launch of the Gallus Labelmaster on September 19 at its event in St. Gallen, Switzerland.
The conventional press is designed for the label and packaging market, and has the capabilities to meet individual customer requirements. The Labelmaster capitalizes on expertise from parent company Heidelberg, building on the Speedmaster offset printing platform. The flexo press is driven by two servomotors and is capable of being fitted with a newly developed screen printing unit, allowing users to take advantage of multiple finishing options.
“We want to produce something that other companies cannot,” said Stephan Plenz, a member of the Heidelberg management board. “We are pushing performance to completely new levels with the Labelmaster.”
The press runs at speeds up to 200 m/m and features high register accuracy. In addition, Labelmaster engineers have introduced “Best Spot Interaction,” a user-friendly feature designed for ease of use and fast operation across all sectors.
