Primera launches digital label finishing system

Primera Technology, a manufacturer of digital label presses and printers, has unveiled its new FX1200e digital label finishing system.

FX1200e is an off-line label production machine that accepts up to 305 mm (12”) O.D. rolls of printed output from digital label presses such as Primera’s CX1200e digital color label press. It offers a variety of features, including lamination, digital die-cutting, matrix waste removal, slitting and rewinding.  

Using Primera’s patent-pending QuadraCut technology, virtually any size and shape of label can be produced including complicated contour cuts, without the need to purchase expensive rotary or flat dies, says the company. Up to four cutting blades can be installed at one time, which is claimed to quadruple the speed compared to machines that use only a single blade.

‘After introducing our ground-breaking CX1200e digital color label press last year, we discovered that the few existing finishing systems available were not fast enough, not reliable enough and not easy enough to use. So, we built our own,’ said Mark D. Strobel, Primera’s vice president of sales and marketing. ‘The result is FX1200e. There’s nothing else that compares to it for even four or five times the price. Although FX1200e is ideal for finishing digital output created by a wide range of digital presses, it’s the perfect companion to Primera’s CX1200e digital color label press.’

Primera says that the FX1200e is the industry’s first digital label finishing system to be UL listed, CE certified and FCC Class A approved.
