Omet to launch K6 platform at Labelexpo Europe 2025

Omet has confirmed it will launch its new KFlex K6 platform at Labelexpo Europe 2025, introducing what it calls a benchmark printing system that combines maximum flexibility, efficiency and quality for label and flexible packaging applications.

The Italian manufacturer will demonstrate the K6 alongside its XFlex X7 press at booth 3E73 from September 16-19 at Fira Barcelona, marking the global debut of what Omet positions as tomorrow's printing standard.

According to the company, the K6 represents a new concept in modular and fully interchangeable printing platforms.

The system features direct-driven flexo units with sleeve technology, a Swich interchangeability system, automatic pressure adjustment and control and a new interchangeable offset unit.

The platform includes Omet's Cold Foil Saver technology, which delivers up to 50 percent material savings in cold foil applications. Next-generation Vision and Multivision systems optimize automated register adjustment while minimizing waste.

Omet will also showcase its XFlex X7, designed for shrink sleeve and flexible packaging production. The press features fully servo-driven 'Zero-Gear' flexo units, reaching speeds of 250m/min.

The company also highlights its digital portfolio, which includes Omet Sfera for production data collection and real-time analytics, Omet Nova for virtual remote assistance, Omet Gaia for AI-integrated machine management and Omet Tasker workflow management system.

Live demonstrations of both presses will run throughout each day, with the K6 showing at 10:30am, 12:30pm and 2:30pm, and the XFlex X7 demonstrating at 11:30am, 1:30pm and 3:30pm.
