Afinia Label launches DLF-220L

Afinia Label has developed the DLF-220L digital label finisher, which can be used to produce full-color, laminated labels, in custom shapes and sizes, on-demand, for just-in-time manufacturing.

Afinia Label said DFL-220L can also be combined with the L801 digital color printer for a digital production system

DLF-220L is an all-in-one machine that can laminate, contour cut labels with a digitally controlled knife, remove the surrounding waste, slit and rewind finished labels onto rolls. These finished rolls of labels are then ready to be applied, either by hand or automatically, to packaging. The entire process is described as ‘automated, in-line and simple’. It can also be combined with the L801 digital color printer for a digital production system.

‘Many manufacturers struggle with managing their labels,’ said Mike Atkins, national sales manager at Afinia Label. ‘Overseeing the inventory for every label size and design often requires businesses to purchase more labels than they need in order to lower costs. And when label needs change due to compliance issues, or for a product that has become obsolete, labels have to be thrown out and reordered, resulting in lost money and time. The simplicity and versatility of this solution empowers companies to create labels as needed, resulting in faster fulfillment of orders and improved profitability.

‘We believe businesses can more efficiently manage their label inventory without having to sacrifice the look and feel of their packaging.’
