Comexi Solventless Laminator Heads to Flexographic Packaging

Flexographic Packaging Co., a Waupun, Wisconsin-based flexible packaging converter, will add a Comexi NEXUS SL2 solventless laminator to its newly expanded printing and laminating facility.

The decision to add the NEXUS SL2 stems from Flexible Packaging's desire to maintain its high performance standards while being environmentally responsible.

Flexographic Packaging is mainly active in the converting of flexible packaging materials such as PET, poly, BOPP Met Pet, nylon and high-value added structures.

"The Comexi NEXUS SL2 will be a great addition to our laminating department," said Flexographic Packaging co-owners David Puente (president) and Erik Blankenberg (vice president). "The Comexi solution will allow Flexographic Packaging Co. to increase our capacity, which will allow us to exceed customers' expectations."

Versatility in Solventless Lamination

The Comexi NEXUS SL2 is designed to work with solventless adhesives, utilizing state-of-the-art technologies to provide maximum reliability and easy handling. This new model is the evolution of the Comexi NEXUS Evo and is capable of laminating at a maximum speed of 1,475 fpm with an available width of 52”- 60”.

The exclusive design of the metering sleeve, its ergonomic properties and great productivity mean that all job changes are completed with unbeatable speed and efficiency. The three nip roller solution, together with the robustness of the machine and the fully motorized coating rollers achieve perfect, consistent and transparent laminations without air bubbles. The result is superior optics at faster speeds.
