Spanish converter buys 400th Gallus ECS 340
At the Gallus Innovation Days event, which took place in St Gallen in September, the 400th label press of the Gallus ECS 340 series was sold to the Spanish label printing company Relieves Egara.
‘We already have several Gallus label printing machines in operation, including two Gallus ECS 340s, and we are extremely satisfied with the high quality, the productivity and flexibility of these presses,’ said Josep Gamundi, CEO of Relieves Egara. ‘In addition, the Gallus ECS 340 features an extremely short web path and delights us again and again with extremely fast makeready times.’
Relieves Egara, which has 60 employees at its plant in Barcelona, prints labels and sleeves for the consumer and also for the pharmaceutical industry.
Among other Gallus label presses, since 2014 the machinery of Relieves Egara includes two Gallus ECS 340s, one of them with 14 positions, the other with 12 positions. ‘Our new Gallus ECS 340 includes eight positions and a fully automated register control. Through our extensive facilities on the other two Gallus ECS we are able to use all our existing ECS- equipment on our latest investment such as screen printing and die-cutting units and we now benefit from this machine series synergistically to our advantage,’ said Josep Gamundi.
With its granite core, the Gallus ECS 340 is exceptionally quiet and stable, and offers minimal waste and set-up times. For rapid design and color changes, the fully servo driven press allows register presetting and the short web path of just 1.1 meters between printing units cuts waste.
