Southern Italian luxury label manufacturer, Auroflex, has acquired Nilpeter MO-Line Fusion press to help its customers to compete in international markets. The new Nilpeter MO-Line Fusion is its fourth press from the Danish manufacturer.   

‘It is the most advanced press we have acquired so far in a collaboration that began more than 20 years ago, and which has brought many eloquent and mutual successes to our companies,’ said Fabio Butera, chairman of Auroflex. ‘Auroflex is committed to providing ever-increasing quality to both current and future customers - the market in which we operate stimulates competition and we want to raise the bar and put our customers in a position to compete in international markets. In that sense, it is no coincidence that our new MO-Line Fusion is a mixed media printing system equipped with all the most advanced printing, regulation, and control technologies.’   

It is a custom-made combination press with a host of analog and digital embellishment technologies inline for high-volume or short-run markets.  

Each of its components are manufactured in-house. The press is built with high levels of automation to minimize manual adjustments and ensure faster setup times and reduced start-up waste.   

‘What the new Fusion brings to Auroflex is unsurpassed print quality, the innovation of a machine with a simplicity and accuracy of electronic controls never seen before; and above all, the versatility of a configuration that will allow us to serve our current customers, and to expand our business area to products that, up until now, we have not been able to produce. The choice of this press model was carefully evaluated by comparing the characteristics of the major companies on the market. The choice of Nilpeter was relatively easy to make as it combines printing machines of proven quality and innovation, with a support and assistance that in many years of collaboration has never failed,’ Butera added.   

With the arrival of the new Nilpeter MO-Line Fusion, and with other investments made in recent years, the need has come for Auroflex to design and build a new production plant, a process which started a few months ago.  

‘I believe that the new printing plant will allow us to grow in turnover, quality, and product offerings.  Our new Nilpeter MO-Line Fusion is part of a more general investment plan, and the implementation of an innovative marketing strategy, with which we are positioning ourselves, with the ambition of becoming a point of reference for the entire national territory,’ Butera concluded.
