Hofprint Etiketten, based in Groenlo, The Netherlands, has installed a Vegaplus LF330 diecutting label finishing machine from Italian manufacturer Prati.
Hofprint supplies customised labels to a range of industries and, states Managing Director Albert Hof, “serving a wide range of markets and versatility was a key selection criteria. When Prati introduced me to the Vegaplus, I was hooked instantly. Excellent quality at a good speed – and suitable for a wide range of applications: just what we needed."
With its modular design, the Vegaplus can be customised to meet the specific needs of individual customers. ‘Superb accuracy’ and a top speed of 200m/min are also promised. The version customised for Hofprint is equipped with an unwinding module for diameters up to one metre – including the roll-lifting unit, two die-utting stations and an automatic register control. The rewinding module is processed on a glueless three-shaft turret.
The Dutch company also needed automatic pitch winding and a number of specific attributes for textile labelling – such as pinfeed holes. These holes enable the textile to run perfectly round, ensuring a smooth run through the machine.
