Flexographic Trade School To Run New Butt Splicer

"We're excited to have this new Martin splicer," says Jack Duncan, Program Director for FTS. "I'm looking forward to having our students learn how to put this technology to work."

Prior to installing the new STS splicer, the school trained students on another model of Martin splicer, the MBS. "To succeed and thrive in this industry, it's important that converters look at their presses as production lines," comments Craig Thomson, Martin's marketing manager. "Press operators, as well as the managers and owners who come through the school, see firsthand the impact of automatic roll changing technology—especially in productivity, waste and quality—in their process."
