ffering advanced cutting technology, the systems and products that make up the Jarshire portfolio come from the Italian
manufacturer, Espo srl. Applications for Espo equipment are to be found throughout the converting, tissue, paper, non-woven, corrugated cardboard, film and foil markets — wherever there is a need to slit flexible materials. Where required, fully-customised slitting systems may be designed and manufactured to meet a customer’s specific requirement or supplied as components for rebuild and up-grade programmes. Espo systems are designed to improve slitting
quality, reduce slitting problems and minimise set up and maintenance time. Their features include an accurate positioning system, either in manual or fully automatic mode; reliable knife- holders; variable slit widths and style mode, such as shear, razor and crush cutting; and the use of a certified range of steels and materials for blades and bottom knives appropriate to different slitting applications. To support and prove Espo equipment, Jarshire
offers prospective customers an advisory service that includes a production survey, the supply of a
test unit and then, if identified as beneficial, a full on-site maintenance package managed by a specialist engineer. The complete maintenance package includes advice on, training for, and maintenance of any make of knife-holder, backed up by full UK-based spares stock-holding and
with all repairs carried out in the UK. Costs to the customer are therefore kept to a minimum, downtimes reduced, a speedy return service guaranteed, and the need to buy extra knife- holders or spares removed.

Triple Knife Outsert Systemincorporates more copy into folded leaflets of the same size
Packaging, specialises in the design and manufacture of custom folding cartons, printed literature, inserts, outserts, labels, foils and unit dose applications. The company has added a new 24-plate folder to its Vijuk MV-11 Triple Knife Outsert System. The Vijuk outsert systems

produce RTA (right-turn-angle) cross-folded outserts, a standard for providing information in the pharmaceutical industry. The ability to fold outserts with more panels allows packaging providers to fold larger outserts with more copy space, often eliminating the need to stack, or ‘piggyback’, outserts. The Vijuk MV-11 Triple Knife Outsert System is
originally designed to work with up to 20 plates, which ultimately determine the number of panels (the panels are multiplied by the folding process). The intricate system typically maxes out in

advance of 300 panels; it is the additional plates within the system that allow 3C! Packaging to reach the
production of 350-panel leaflets. This creates a 14 per cent increase in copy space over the former 294- panel maximum. While a typical 294 panel (for an 1.25- inch by 1.25-inch leaflet) can accommodate 420 square inches of copy per side, a 350-panel leaflet can accommodate 477 square inches of copy per side, a significant increase that allows for the growth in more intricate instructions, warnings and disclaimers. The new system’s capability is reflective of the
growth of 3C! Packaging in recent years. With the introduction of its Clear Code coating system, the installation of a Nilpeter FB-3 Flexo Press, and the addition of more than 3,000 square feet of additional facility space, the company has enhanced its capabilities and increased its customer base significantly.
“The 350-fold capacity afforded by 3C!
Packaging’s outsert system exemplifies our commitment to providing customers with the most advanced capabilities available,” says Russell Hill, vice president of sales and innovation for 3C! Packaging. “In an ever-evolving industry, we are dedicated to staying on top of marketplace needs and trends by offering the best-possible solutions to address them.”
