LemuGroup sees successful Labelexpo Europe 2025

LemuGroup participated in Labelexpo Europe 2025 in Barcelona, where the company presented innovations, including a complete conversion line.

The complete self-adhesive label conversion line was a fully automated system, beginning with Martin Automatic's MBS non-stop splicers, which fed ETl's Cohesio modular machine, efficiently transforming raw material into finished labels through a continuous process of coating, laminating and die-cutting in line. Lundberg Tech's MatrixCompactor collected and managed the matrix waste produced after the die-cutting process. The production process continued across the aisle at the LemuGroup stand, where it passed through the GTU rewinder for conversion of the web into finished rolls, followed by the UltraCompact robotic end-of-line boxing and palletizing system. A particularly striking feature was the structure designed jointly by the companies: a five-meter paper bridge suspended over the aisle connecting the two stands, allowing attendees to pass underneath. Beyond its visual appeal, this installation demonstrated the engineering capabilities and technical coordination between the companies involved.

This project, which debuted at Labelexpo America 2024, represented a strategic collaboration between Martin Automatic, ETI Converting, Lundberg Tech and LemuGroup. Its goal was to demonstrate the possibilities in configuring a complete converting line. Each company contributed its expertise, enabling the construction of a highly productive machine. 

At its stand, LemuGroup also presented digital embellishment equipment, consisting of digital inkjet printing and stamping modules. The Mi 305 Digital Inkjet model can operate individually or be integrated into presses such as the MA 350. Its roller system for accumulating paper allows the machine to be stopped and started without losing labels, ensuring complete processing. Its interface facilitates instant job changes without the need for additional tooling.

The Mi 350 Digital Inkjet is designed to apply varnish in large volumes with maximum precision, without varnish waste and without any tooling screen or plates. In addition, its stamping module eliminates the need for primer or pre-varnishing, optimizing the process.

LemuGroup also presented the LI 220 RFID, its RFID insertion equipment, in combination with the Voyantic Tagsurance 3 module. This modular and compact technology offers real-time coding and quality control.

Additionally, LemuGroup received the Labels & Labeling Global Award in the Innovation category, in recognition of its end-of-line automation. This award validates the company's commitment to innovation and its effort to offer technologies that optimize customers' processes.
