MPS Systems Asia to host open house in Malaysia

Tim Klappe, managing director Asia Pacific at MPS, said: ‘We are pleased to bring together our Asia-Pacific agent network and customers in Kuala Lumpur to provide an informative presentation agenda and demonstrate the EF-530 next generation flexo press. This beautiful, state-of-the-art press will feature powerful flexible packaging capabilities such as pouches, wrap around, and shrink sleeve labels, which is a lucrative growth market here in Asia.’  

 

Also taking place on September 7, 2022 is a table top exhibition at MPS Systems Asia where customers will have the opportunity to interact and ask questions directly with industry partners.   

 

Launched earlier this year, the latest MPS EF fully automated multi-substrate flexo machine is equipped with the slide-out ink drawer as standard, E-Sleeves, improved job memory functionality and two automation levels and connectivity and performance improvements with MPSConnect.  

 

The EF next generation press to be featured in the MPS Asia showroom during the open house was purchased by a customer in Malaysia specializing in shrink sleeve label production.  

 

On September 6, 2022, Klappe will welcome visitors to the open house and provide the introduction and demonstration of the EF-530 next generation flexo press.
