Austrian converter installs Xeikon 3300 digital press

Austrian label converter Helf Etiketten has installed a Xeikon 3300 digital label press. 

The 3300 is Xeikon’s best selling high-volume digital label press. The system is designed for use with the most common web width of 330mm, but is also capable of handling a web width as narrow as 200mm. It runs at speeds up to 19.2 m/min. 

The Xeikon 3300 uses the QA-I toner, which meets all the applicable FDA guidelines for indirect food contact under room temperature and less severe conditions as well as direct food contact for dry food substances containing no surface oil or fat under the same conditions. The Xeikon 3300 was awarded the New Innovation Award at the Label Industry Global Awards during Labelexpo Americas 2008, and in 2009 became the first digital label press to receive an InterTech Technology Award. 

‘Customers are increasingly demanding sustainable and food-safe product packaging at competitive prices,’ explained managing directors Christian Coreth and Walter Schuppler-Helf. ‘We opted for the Xeikon 3300 because we wanted to significantly increase productivity by improving production speed and throughput. The system also delivers superior uptime, as well as fine detailing thanks to the high print resolution.’
