Comexi completed the installation of Comexi R2 gravure printing press at Cheonil plant in Gwangju-city, the second main factory that Cheonil has in Korea. This is the first European gravure press for flexible packaging that it is installed in this state and, at the same time, means a big step further for Cheonil, a leading and awarded packaging converter company dedicated to produce high quality functional flexible packaging with environmentally friendly materials such as pouches, transparent barrier packaging materials, retort food and other household and industrial packaging.
This is the second Comexi equipment that Cheonil installs at their facilities. Some years ago, the company purchased a Comexi SL2 solventless laminator and, currently, they are interested in acquiring another gravure printing press that will work with water base inks.
Comexi’s innovative gravure press Comexi R2 has been designed to meet the requirements of the current flexible packaging market whilst maintain the highest levels of quality. This gravure press incorporates the most revolutionary technology in terms of machine control with mechanically driven systems in order to increase efficiency; as well as Siemens’ SIMOTION, which raises energy savings in the consumption of the press. Furthermore, features ink system of variable volume that significantly reduces ink usage.
“This gravure press offers quick job changeovers, reduces waste, provides mechanical stability at high speed and offers greater adaptability and flexibility with a significantly reduction of ink usage,” said Comexi’s Business Unit Director, David Centelles. “Moreover, incorporates a trolley system that allows quick job changeover in order to considerably reduce downtime in the printing process, one of the most demanded requirements in the current market”.
Furthermore, all Comexi R2 units incorporate their own touch screen panel in order to facilitate maximum use. Besides, their trolleys reduce changeover times, have spectrophotometers and increase efficiency with latest innovation in blade systems and dryers. Comexi R2 can print with materials of width up to 1350 mm (53 in), formats ranging from 450 to 920 mm (18 to 36 in) and a speed of 400 m per minute (1,312 ft per minute). This machine enables water based printing and can reach easily great lung runs with high stability and top quality. Comexi’s gravure technologies are the best technologies for in line finishing such as lamination solvent based, solventless or cold seal, among many others.
