BST Sayona rebranded as BST eltromat India

BST Sayona, an Indo-German joint venture company and part of Elexis Group, has been re-branded as BST eltromat India, effective January 14.

BST Sayona rebranded as BST eltromat India
BST Sayona was incorporated in 1993 jointly with BST international. Headquartered in Mumbai, and now known as BST eltromat India, it has a manufacturing unit in Vallabh Vidyanagar, Gujarat, and several branch offices across major metros and industrial hubs.
 
Tappan Patel, BST eltromat India managing director, said: ‘This move is in line with the global merger to align ourselves with all the other BST eltromat subsidiaries.’ 
 
BST eltromat has also re-launched its register control device, regi_star 20, in the Indian market with new features.
 
The new features of the BST eltromat register control system optimize various processes on a printing press by adapting automatically to the respective process conditions with the aid of pilot control, and reducing the amount of waste created during set-up, start-up, reel changes and speed changes.
 
In addition to detecting wedge marks using a one-pixel color camera, the equipment enables connecting matrix cameras to detect dot marks. In-setter modules are also available to control a pre-printed web and for the electronic gear adjustment of tools.
 
Other new features include an additional keypad, an additional remote display and operating unit for the control system, register pre-setting for the printing press, acquisition of the print cylinder positions, motorized traverse bars for the register mark sensors and a remote maintenance module.
