Per Lindberg Jørgensen, director of Alfast, said of the choice: ‘Ease of operation was the primary reason, from navigating software, initial job set-up and die-cutting tools to quickly and efficiently run production. Rotocontrol was extremely professional, from the initial sale to the machine installation at my factory.’

The Rotocontrol RCF series of servo-controlled finishing machines are designed as a robust, configurable platform for the addition of various standard and custom modules as required by specific customer applications.

Founded more than 25 years ago, Alfast is a rapidly growing niche business, specializing in converting 3M and tesa tape to meet customer-specific criteria.
