South African converter installs Rotocontrol EDM200

South African converter Label Leaders has purchased an EDM200 semi-rotary, servo-driven UV flexo machine from Rotocontrol, through the German company’s local distributor Rototec. The machine is due to be installed in mid-August.  

‘We plan to utilize the EDM200 in short-run production of generic labels requiring a change in the description of the product,’ said Craig Stange, factory manager at Label Leaders. ‘The speed and ease of job setup and changeover in addition to the flexibility in producing smaller runs of unique labels led to our decision to invest in the Rotocontrol EDM200.’ 

Founded in 1995, Label Leaders produces a wide range of flexo-printed labels for retail products, wine, cosmetics and pharmaceuticals, among others. 

The EDM200 is a semi-rotary, servo-driven UV flexo machine which uses sleeve technology for both print and anilox cylinders. It is designed to work primarily as an over-printing machine.
