Webinar: overcoming converting challenges with Maxcess

Maxcess, a supplier of web-handling technology, will share industry insights and new technologies from its portfolio of brands, including RotoMetrics, Fife, Tidland, Magpowr, International Cutting Die (ICD), Componex, Webex, and Valley Roller, in a webinar with Labels & Labeling on December 15, 2025. 

From thinner liners to challenging adhesives, new materials, and new converting business opportunities, Maxcess will explore how winding influences tension, the effects of tension on guiding, and how guiding and tension impact die cutting and slitting.

Maxcess will explore these challenges in light of the difficulties facing many converters today. They include significant loss of institutional knowledge as the Baby Boomers and Gen X retire, labor skill gaps in the trade, and difficulty recruiting and retaining good talent. Continued emphasis remains on reducing waste and scrap, recycling or repurposing and improving sustainability. The ability to be flexible, adaptable and an increasing shift to ever more customization, personalization and shorter runs.

The webinar begins at 10 am US Central Time, is free to attend and will be available at www.labelsandlabeling.com after the broadcast. Participants can register here.

Participants will hear from Paul Young, who brings 32 years of industry experience specializing in converting applications within the narrow web tag and label industry. His expertise in flexible cutting dies and solid engraved dies has assisted converting companies to reach new heights in waste reduction and improved machine thruput while helping to achieve their sustainability goals. Young’s ability to share insights from unwind to rewind can help converters work better, faster, and smarter.
