The press is equipped with six UV printing units, foil blocking and laminating and includes an Omega Rewind system also from A B Graphic International Ltd.

The second press joins an existing Lintec installation used for printing short runs and test marketing and compliments a range of high performance presses for the production of labels from single up to eight colours in print runs of 1000 to multi-million quantities from the simplest to the most sophisticated designs.

Comments Tony Bell, Director, A B Graphic International Ltd. “With brand owners constantly looking for new and innovative ways of marketing their products and run lengths steadily decreasing, the Lintec press is an ideal test and production vehicle. Two sets of cylinders are supplied with the machine so that while one job is running the other can be prepared and changed over in seconds”.
