Beta said to be ‘future proof’ in India
P
RESS MANUFACTURER Edale has announced the sale of a five- colour Beta modular press to Uflex, the India-based flexible packaging company to be installed at its factory at Noida, near
New Delhi.
Uflex is a large reverse integrated flexible packaging company manufacturing flexible laminate and films and security products with a strong market presence in over 105 countries.
The Edale Beta has the capacity to incorporate up to 14 print stations and three converting stations and is suited to the production of high quality labels, tags and sachets.
Because of the modular design of the Beta, it allows for the machine to be upgraded easily, and a wide range of additional options retrofitted, ensuring that the press remains ‘future-proof’, claims Edale.

Slitter rewinder orders for Rotocontrol
R
OTOCONTROL HAS won a second order for a RSC slitter rewinder inspection machine from Reslan Labels, the Turkish label company. The order was placed by Feyzi, Rotocontrol’s
local agent.
Omer Surucuer, Feyzi’s sales engineer, says: “Sedat Soysev of Reslan selected Rotocontrol for its new 440mm wide control machine requirement with a full suite of standard features in an economical, compact machine designed to maximize operator efficiency. Standard features such as cartridge slitting system, vertical inspection zone, automatic tension control, S-Drive servo driven operation, job save and simple, functional, controls means more time producing labels and less time in set up.”
In a separate deal, Rotocontrol International has sold a second finishing machine line to Taflex, one of the largest producers of high quality self-adhesive labels in Russia. Azat Gabidullin, of Taflex, saw the machine during Labelexpo Americas and subsequently placed an order for an RSC slitter rewinder inspection machine. Latterly he placed an order for RSP 440 with vertical vacuum splice table and full re-inspection capability. IMB Group, the recently signed local agent of Rotocontrol in Russia, will provide Taflex with local service and technical support.

UK/TURKEY K2 press for Turkey K
2 International has installed a fourth flexographic printing press at packaging contractors, Toros Ambalaj Sanayi in Turkey. The 3-series 410mm wide, six colour machine will be used to meet increased capacity for fruit packaging and joins three existing K2 press installations at the company’s location in Mercin. “We have been working with K2 International for eight years and have standardised our printing operation with this manufacturers presses,” says vice president, Sahir Carilli. “This brings a number of benefits including reduced costs for spare parts from one manufacturer rather than say from four different ones. In addition, if one of our operators is absent it is easy for another to operate his machine without impacting on production schedules. “Our presses are equipped with PLC controls for greater reliability and are designed with print and die stations at the same height for ease of use and operator safety,” says K2 managing director, Russell Oddy. “The series 3 model

has a floor standing large die cutting station equipped with two product label rewinds. The presses print on very thin, tissue like paper for citrus fruits and this is quite difficult material for some flexo presses, but ours do the job successfully. We are delighted that Toros Ambalaj Sanayi has re- invested in the design and reliability of our equipment and our two companies have developed a strong sense of partnership. We see this as a key factor in winning and keeping business away from our competitors.” K2 T: +44 (0) 1562 515 017
