Müroll installs its first Nilpeter FA line press

The machine was designed for the production of paper materials, which are used for adhesive roll cores, tickets, and other paper products. However, in order to expand the possible product portfolio in advance, the machine is also equipped with a rotary die-cutter, a crossover unit, and expansion options for UV and LED-drying. This alternative drying technology can subsequently be used also in combination with the existing hot air-drying system.

‘In our industry, we see a continuing reduction of job sizes, shorter product life cycles for our customers, and strong international competition,’ said Kurt Pichler, managing director of Müroll. ‘As a producer in a relatively high-wage environment, we have to maintain our own competitiveness at the highest level using state-of-the-art machine technology and efficiency. Our new Nilpeter FA-22 provides massive support in this effort.’

Müroll is based in Austria and has additional two European production sites. Its main 25,000 m² manufacturing plant in Frastanz produces nearly 200 million m² of self-adhesive tape using polypropylene (BOPP / MOPP), PVC, and paper substrates.
