The Grafotronic HI-Series (Horizontal Inspection) has a modern design with an innovative web path integrated inside the machine. This unique web path is very stable and allows the machine to run and stop in high speeds, said Grafotronic. The Ajanta Packaging machines will be equipped with the Grafotronic semi-automatic turret rewinder, which has been installed previously in more than 100 machines.

‘As we continue to grow and expand, to augment our label slitting and inspection capacity we preferred Grafotronic in whom, we believe that we have found the right partner to support us with new technology solutions to improve our quality control,’ said Chandan Khanna, CEO, Ajanta Packaging.

Mattias Malmqvist, vice president of Grafotronic, said: ‘Our slitter rewinder inspection machines have been very well received in the region and to get this kind of recognition from one of the most important players is very pleasing and shows that we have the right product.’

Naalin Sharma of Global Graphics added: ‘The uniqueness of the Grafotronic HI-Series is their ergonomic design wherein the inspection system is mounted below the working table. Apart from the semi-turret, we offered some well-designed functionalities on the Grafotronic HI to Ajanta which makes these machines more purposeful.’
