Narrow-web press manufacturers’s products evolve to keep up with the changing package-printing market.

By Chris Mc Loone

Mark Andy used its “Voice of the Customer (VOC)” program to pinpoint the unique technical and machine needs of the film and flexible packaging printer, resulting in Comco C2. Comco C2 uses I-Drive™ (Intelligent Drive System), which brings together servo technology and advanced controls focused on precision print management and simplified operations. I-Drive offers full servo motion functionality (shaftless and gearless); continuous tension management and control; anilox and plate roll sleeves that change out in one smooth move; fully automated registration system; automated preregistration and re-registration; and improved ergonomics at every press station. Mark Andy’s 2200 press line has been completely redesigned and reintroduced as well.
