Xeikon will be joined by the Flint Group’s Narrow Web and Ink divisions at Labelexpo Asia 2017, scheduled for Dec. 5-8, 2017 at the Shanghai New International Expo Centre. The companies will be located on Stand G21 at the show. By combining Xeikon’s digital printing expertise with the wide range of conventional narrow web offerings from the Flint Group, visitors to Stand G21 will find solutions that address all label converter needs for self-adhesive and heat transfer labels. In addition to a Xeikon 3500 roll-to-roll digital press configuration, the stand will also feature a ThermoFlexX integrated plate production system for flexo and letterpress.
“There is huge growth potential in the Chinese market for digital label production, and it is an important market for Xeikon,” said Bent Serritslev, Xeikon’s Managing Director of Xeikon Asia Pacific. “With the broadest range of digital label printing solutions in the market, Xeikon has doubled its market share in China over the last two years, a growth rate we expect to continue. This expectation is validated by the fact that Xeikon customers are experiencing strong volume growth on their digital presses, indicating there is no shortage of volume suitable for digital production.”
About the Xeikon 3500
The Xeikon 3500 roll-to-roll digital label press prints on web widths up to 516mm (20.3”) at 1200 dpi, and at speeds of up to 594 m2/hour. It uses high lightfastness QA-I or ICE toner. As Xeikon’s flagship wide web label press, the Xeikon 3500 enables shorter runs, faster delivery times, and the utmost in production flexibility. It’s highly functional X-800 digital front end with VariLane imposition software minimizes prepress activities, allowing label converters to easily combine different jobs on one substrate – even if the labels are of different heights and widths and with different run lengths. Last-minute adjustments to artwork or the addition of variable data is fast and easy, further increasing profitability for label converters. This type of out-of-the-box thinking and unique value-add sets Xeikon apart in the world of digital label printing.
