Outlook Group orders second MPS EF press
Less than two years after installing its first MPS EF flexo press, Outlook Group, based in Neenah, Wisconsin, USA, has bought a second: a 17-inch, 8-color EF press with automated print pressure settings.
Outlook Group, which in October 2016 announced its merger with M&Q Packaging under M&Q Holdings, is a leading printer of pressure-sensitive labels, flexible packaging and folding cartons.
Per Kees Nijenhuis, vice president of MPS Systems North America, commented: ‘We are very proud to share that our partnership with Outlook has been a real success and that the EF platform has helped Outlook Group to continue their growth. The EF platform has proven to be a very successful platform in the North American market as it is a real future proof press platform, helping our customers to grow in today’s increasingly dynamic and competitive markets.’
‘We looked at the success of our first machine from the standpoint of production speed, waste reduction and print quality,’ said Brett Peters, senior process engineer at Outlook Group. ‘We tracked press metrics very closely. The opportunity to add a second machine presented itself and we were able to quickly justify this project and move forward.’
He additionally stated that his team is excited about the EF’s ability to print extremely thin films while holding a very tight register, along with its operator interface and ease of use.
