First Grafotronic finishing machine installed in Canada

Labelink, a converter based in Toronto, Canada, has installed the country’s first Grafotronic finishing machine for slitting and die-cutting of blank labels.

The machine was bought off the stand at Labelexpo Americas 2010 in Chicago. Grafotronic’s managing director Mats Marklund said: ‘We are proud being a supplier to a company like Labelink that targets ambitious growth, fast and friendly service with a large social commitment. Labelink is being recognized as the fastest printer in the flexo industry and the new Grafotronic machine will support and service their business for many years to come.’ 

The Grafotronic 280 (11 inch) die-cutting machine is built for production of blank labels and operates at speeds of more than 200 m/min (600 ft/min).
