Dion Label Printing Installs Second MPS Servo Converting Press
Dion Label Printing, a label converter based in Westfield, Massachusetts, has installed a second servo converting press from MPS, providing greater capacity and diversity in its product offerings.
The EF-430 hybrid press allows printing on 17" wide substrates from thin films to heavy tag. The press uses both UV and water-based inks and has many rail-mounted accessories for multiple web configurations. Integrated CC1 controls deliver extremely precise and consistent registration. This new press and an earlier model MPS press have also been equipped with AVT video inspection equipment. With high-speed, high-resolution line-scanners, these server-based systems monitor 100 percent of the web, providing operators with immediate feedback on possible defects while digitally mapping the results for editing on newly installed inspection equipment.
Dion Label's first MPS press was purchased in 2008.
"This press has definitely exceeded expectations and will surely extend our ability to meet our customers' challenges in the years ahead," John Dion, co-owner of Dion Label, said.
