Gallus sells 20 ECS 340 presses within three months
The Gallus Group has sold over twenty ECS 340 presses to customers around the world within three months of its market launch at Labelexpo Europe 2009. The Gallus ECS 340 is based on a core of technical granite, said to ensure short web travel and minimal waste, minimum setup times and simple operation and access. Granite also has a positive impact on the CO2 footprint of the press, says the company.
For labels with limited finishing requirements in commodity applications – such as food and pharmaceuticals, substrate costs can account for up to 50 percent of the label’s total cost. This means that the amount of waste produced impacts strongly on the margin of a job. The Gallus ECS 340 is designed for maximum waste reduction, with the web length measuring just over 11 meters for an 8-color machine.
