Comexi ML2: the perfect combination of versatility and high productivity

Comexi have launched their latest lamination technology: the Comexi ML2. A top-range laminator designed under two key concepts: versatility and the highest productivity. "These are the pillars that best define this new laminator that, thanks to its ergonomic design, facilitates daily operations, maximizing production", highlights the Comexi's Lamination Brand Manager, Carles Rodríguez. "I like to call it the gadget machine, because is full of new solutions that will delight operators", explains Rodríguez.

This laminator can work with solvent-based, water-based or solvent-free adhesives. It provides a wide range of lamination and coating options and works with materials up to 1530 millimeters (60.2 inch) wide and at a speed of 450 meters per minute (1467.4 ft/min). Also, enables all kinds of coatings and applications such as coldseal, heatseal, ink or varnishes. It has five easily interchangeable technological trolleys - gravure with open chamber, gravure closed chamber, solventless, flexo GL and semi-flexo - that satisfy all current market demands. At the same time, customers can configure the drying tunnel - 6 or 9 meters with 2 or 3 independent zones - to respond to all their needs.

Specifically, the design of the Comexi ML2 began in 2015 after detecting an increasing demand for jobs with multiple solutions that required frequent changes. "This machine was designed to increase productivity; with this technology, changeovers can be done with the maximum speed and minimum waste" emphasizes the Comexi's Lamination Business Unit Director, Albert Chicote. This laminator has a high precision register control system to meet the highest quality demands of the market. At the same time, thanks to the motorization of the linear web guide and the Quick Front-Reverse Reading system, job adjustments are made with maximum agility and speed.

It has 3-roller NIP technology that allows applying a higher pressure at a lower point of contact, thus obtaining a uniform pressure across the lamination NIP, offering the highest optical quality and reducing breakage or wrinkle generation. 

On the other hand, the Comexi ML2 is equipped with other technologies that reduce downtimes. In this sense, it's fitted with two panoramic screens with latest generation software and graphics, and a user-friendly touch design that facilitates its use and maximizes efficiency. While machine is working, it allows loading the next job, centralizes all peripherical equipment, save the parameters of all jobs reel to reel and a vast variety of other possibilities to maximize the performance. It also offers a fast coupling of technological trolleys and dosing sleeves that make the Comexi ML2 a highly profitable machine and, above all, a productive laminator.
