Optimised flexo print quality and productivity with TRESU’s F10 iCon ink supply system
impression (CI) and inline flexo printing machines, thereby reducing material waste and operational costs. The system has enabled several of the world’s leading packaging converters and brand owners to achieve significant improvements in efficiency, print quality and environmental performance since its introduction in 2012. Tetra Pak, the world’s leading food processing and packaging solutions company, has chosen to install the F10 iCon ink supply system on both its new and existing flexo printing operations around the world. The F10 iCon supplies precise volumes of ink, ranging from 5 to 30 litres /
K
minute, at constant, predetermined stroke frequencies. The supply system maintains optimum ink pressure in the chamber system to ensure clean print quality and accurate ink densities are achieved, consistently throughout the printing run, at speeds of over 600m/min. Furthermore, the supply system also assures an accurate way of returning inks
to the bucket and fast, thorough chamber cleaning, without manual intervention. TRESU Group Tel: +45 76 32 35 00

METSÄBoard’s design for T2 tea packages is a refreshing success
the new T2 Mini Fruit Tea range gained a prestigious Merit Award at the 28th Hong Kong Print Awards in the category of Paper Packaging. With over 1000 entries and 200 participating companies, Metsä Board’s
M
design team based in Shanghai, needed to be both structurally and visually innovative to stand out from the crowd. The designs clearly reflect the new flavours in the T2 Mini Fruit Tea range with each flavour contained within individual fruit shaped boxes, including banana bake, watermelon sorbet, Turkish apple and peach. These uniquely shaped boxes also have an unusual and eye catching opening mechanism. The design is printed on reverse side of Metsä Board’s Carta Solida 250
gsm fresh fibre paperboard. The uncoated side was deliberately selected to echo the natural feel of the fruit and give a softer texture to the boxes.

ROTRONIC has launched its environmental temperature and humidity monitoring system (RMS)
T
his checks, documents and visualises all the required measurements in one system. The data can be retrieved anywhere, at any time
using a PC, MAC, tablet or smartphone. The system offers the highest level of performance, flexibility and versatility. The RMS software stores all recorded measurements, data and events
securely for retrieval remotely with integration into 3rd party systems if required. Alerts and warnings can be generated. The RMS data loggers transmit data to the software via wireless or LAN communication. RMS is a modular system; components can be added easily to extend its
functionality. Other parameters from 3rd party sensors can be incorporated. The monitoring system is ideal for companies throughout industry, as well as organisations of all types. Contact ROTRONIC to discuss your project or application.

compact 8000-SLIM web gauging system and SlimTrak scanner for narrow web applications. The new SlimTrak scanner offers several benefits for narrow web
N
processors. First it is designed with a small cross section footprint for compact installations. SlimTrak’s cross sectional area is less than 150mm x 150mm (6” x 6”) and
supports web widths from 200mm (8”) to 1600mm (63”). Next, the scanner electronics can be mounted up to 20 meters (65ft) away from the scanner, allowing them to be located in a more suitable environment for enhanced reliability and maintainability. NDC’s 8000-SLIM system delivers fast, real-time measurement and tight
control of key product parameters such as thickness, coat weight, basis weight and moisture. It offers a rich feature set from NDC’s 8000 web solutions family and can support up to 2 SlimTrak scanners, each with one sensor. By combining speed, accuracy, control and information into an intelligent open architecture, this cost- effective system represents an ideal solution for narrow web process lines. The result is a well- designed system based on solid technologies and applications knowledge from NDC.

TRESU’snew XL5i coating circulator regulates unblemished application of high-viscosity, sensitive packaging varnishes
T
RESU Group's new XL5i Coating Circulator ensures precisely regulated, stable flow, and uncontaminated print
and coating, when applying sensitive UV and water-based flexo varnishes for packaging and label applications. A compact system with two speed-controlled
TRESU XL5i Coating Circulator for sensitive UV and water- based varnishes
peristaltic pumps, TRESU XL5i is easy to operate thanks to semi-automatic cleaning and timer settings.
Used in combination with a chamber doctor blade and customized open- cell anilox roll, TRESU XL5i provides fully enclosed circulation from the bucket to the point where the ink or varnish fills the anilox cells, thereby enabling pressure and control needed to delicately handle the medium. The enclosed system prevents contamination of air inside the chamber that can lead to foaming and undesired blistering of the printwork. Printing applications for which the XL5i are suitable include opaque
white, gold and silver metalure, pearl lustre, blister coating, scented, high- gloss, scented or silky soft touch effects, on folding carton, self-adhesive labels or metallised papers.
