Established in 2011, etikett.de aims to become Germany’s market leader for online label production due to its competitive pricing strategy. The company benefits from its lean work processes and efficient technology, state-of-the-art equipment, and 70-strong team. 

Being modular in design, both of etikett.de's new Digicon Series 3s have been configured to meet its production requirements. One of the machines features ABG’s Fast Track die-cutting module, suited for large jobs of 1,500 linear meters or more at speeds of up to 150 m/min. Also included on this machine is an auto-slit module, which features a label gap sensor and automatically setting knives. 

etikett.de's second machine includes ABG’s Big Foot 50-ton capacity hot foil and embossing module. Featuring a rotatable foil head that can foil across and along and with the web, allowing a wide choice of foil options, together with much deeper embossing and debossing, the module also includes a special coating unit for imprinting with UV coatings. ABG’s die-cutting module and a 100 percent camera inspection unit are also included.

Klaus Nordlohne, ABG’s sales manager for Germany, said: ‘etikett.de's investment in two high-specification Digicon Series 3s provides a good insight into their ongoing market ambitions. And in testament to the resolve of the ABG team and our customers that, despite the challenging circumstances, we are delighted that we can continue to push forward with important machine installations.’

Both machines were installed at the company’s premises in early December 2020, in accordance with the German government’s pandemic guidelines and restrictions.
