UK converter installs second Multiflex finishing machine

Bradford, UK-based OPM Group has installed a second Multiflex, a Bar Graphic Machinery-manufactured finishing machine for flexible packaging printers. It has been specially designed to finish supported and unsupported multiple substrates. The installation coincides with the installation of another FA4 full servo Nilpeter press.

Chris Ellison, managing director of OPM, commented, ‘For some time now we have had the requirements for a finishing machine capable of finishing multiple substrates; one of our major requirements being the finished profile of the roll. After demonstrations and attempts from other finishing machine manufacturers, our decision was easily made when we visited BGM and viewed a demonstration on their very latest Elite Multiflex. The machine was effortlessly demonstrated with several of our bespoke products, achieving outstanding profiles and speeds.

‘Furthermore, since the first installation one month prior to Labelexpo, we decided that to complement our entire finishing requirements, on completion of the installation of a new press we would require a second Multiflex. Just one week prior to Labelexpo we proudly decided to place the order for another Multiflex from BGM.’

Daniel Carr, sales manager of Bar Graphic Machinery, commented, ‘We are truly delighted that OPM decided to use BGM as a supplier. The Elite Multiflex recently set the new benchmark for finishing equipment being able to finish a multiple of substrates, the machines capabilities are outstanding achieving supreme performance and profiling on multiple, films and plastics, foils, papers, self-adhesive papers and light carton substrates, we are delighted with the new Multiflex, and equally delighted that a second machine has recently been installed within the OPM Group.’
