Upbeat performance from Nilpeter

Nilpeter's bell rang 22 times by the middle of the last day at Labelexpo, with more orders expected. They covered the company's product ranges, the most comprehensive offered by any press manufacturer at the the show. Receiving its European debut was the the sleeve-based FA-4* for high-end labels and packaging, and the high-performance FB-3 UV flexo press. The MO-4 offset platform and the new MO-5, a wider 520-mm version for labels and package printing, also created much interest among premium-quality converters.

The company also experienced strong interest for the new inline Quick Change (QC) magnetic die module. Recently developed, the system allows operators to ergonomically change cylinders in less than 10 seconds. Solid die-cutting cylinders can also be incorporated. Another attraction was the flatbed FP-4 hot-foil and embossing unit, and the G-4 gravure unit for printing metallic inks and other coatings. 

 

Jakob Landberg, sales director, said, 'Two years ago there was less hype and it was not so exciting as an exhibition. And now the hype is back and the show is vibrant and positive. This year we have had customers come on the stand and have enthusiastically made a buying decision on the spot. Instead of concentrating solely on efficiency the accent this year has been capacity. Heavy metal is back!'
