Knight Labels installs Focus Proflex 250

The Proflex 250 is a 10in modular in-line press equipped with quick change print cassettes, turn bar, die station, sheeting station, slitting, rewinding, and a combination of IR and UV drying systems.

The unit installed by Knight Labels is to be used for production of self-adhesive labels on a range of substrates, and was purchased in order to increase production capacity, optimize print quality and improve customer service levels.

‘The Proflex has proven to be the perfect choice for us at this stage in our development,’ said Paul Lever of Knight Labels. ‘It has all the sophistication of larger, more expensive presses, but still has a relatively short web path and remains an efficient, compact design. ‘More importantly, it has increased our productivity considerably and it gives us plenty of options for the future, since the Proflex is modular and we can add to it as we need to. The new press has enabled us to reduce downtime and produce a higher quality of work, which in turn, is opening doors in new markets for us.’

Focus Label Machinery sales manager Antony Cotton added: ‘We are delighted that Knight Labels has chosen us for its latest press requirement. We like to work closely with our customers, offering the best possible back up service, as we firmly believe that this is the basis for a strong future business relationship. In addition, we listen to the feedback from our customers and we continue to develop our equipment, making sure that we are able to offer the very latest technology to meet their requirements.’
