Variable data specialist Mailfactory has chosen four KODAK PROSPER S5 Imprinting Systems to help it meet today’s market demands for variable-colour images at high speed. The investment, complementing six existing KODAK VERSAMARK Printheads, allows the company to increase competitiveness with a broader offering and more cost effective production costs.   Based in Madrid, Spain, Mailfactory was established in the late 1990s by a group of direct marketing professionals to add a distinctive touch to the personalisation and variable-data options available on the market.

Coding and marking specialist Linx Printing Technologies has added remote control functionality as standard to the award-winning Linx CJ400 continuous ink jet printer, making it even more simple and cost-effective to use.   The new software enables users to control and monitor one, or several, printers from a single computer, and this means that users can look forward to further reductions in costly errors and downtime.   It can even accept instructions from other machines in the line – for example, a bagging machine can tell the Linx CJ400 to stop coding if there is a problem in the bagging area.   The Linx CJ400’s built-in remote communications protocol allows PCs and other equipment on the production line, such as PLCs, to "talk" to the printer when connected over a network via RS232 or Ethernet.   Custom applications can also be created to meet specific needs, and generic printer control packages such as CLARiSOFT® and CLARiNET® can be u...

Following its acquisition of S&C Labels in Huddersfield earlier this year, Print-Leeds is investing more than 3.5 million Euros in a new press and CtP system from Heidelberger Druckmaschinen AG (Heidelberg). This move comes ahead of the centralisation of its operations in Leeds, Yorkshire, where a building programme is increasing capacity from 10,000 sq ft to 19,000 sq ft. The press arrives at the end of November and the business transfer will take place over the Christmas break.     A Speedmaster CX 102-7+L with Prinect Inpress Control will be 80% used for labels work but will also handle some of the Print-Leeds plastics printing, primarily POS and promotional work. It will be fed by the new Suprasetter 106 CtP device that the company is adding.   The average run for the labels business is 20,000 sheets, much of the work for the beer, water and food industries. The plastics orders tend to be much shorter, averaging about 1,000 and frequently including lent...

UPM Raflatac has introduced three finely embossed paper label faces for premium-look wine and beverage labelling. ‘Velmart Ivoire WSA’ offers a depth of texture and tone for an elegantly traditional and natural look. Two silver-coated papers maximize colour contrast and contribute to a luxurious look and feel that’s thoroughly à la mode: the pearlescent, stipple-patterned ‘Silver Orion WSA’ and the rib-effect ‘Groovy Silver WSA’.   Paired with the RP 30 permanent adhesive, these faces extend their applicability to champagnes and sparkling wines, whites, reds, rosés and spirits.

The largest Indian paint manufacturing site being the third one from the dimensional point of view in the whole Asian territory (last year, this manufacturer has added fifteen new production lines), has expressed its satisfaction with the systems P.E. LABELLERS supplied them with in 2009; in 2011, the company bought eleven new machines being the same as the previously supplied ones. The orientation systems being mounted on P.E.
