Nilpeter Says Buyers’ Demand for Quality Boosts Interest in Offset

The MO’s design and control systems allow for quick set-ups facilities and fast make-readies, aided by interchangeable print modules. The development of a computerised controller for MO-presses to achieve efficient ink/water balances for varying run lengths has halved set-ups times to 15 minutes for individual units, while reducing set-up wastage. This has helped facilitate the printing of smaller run lengths while retaining offset quality. “End-users are reluctant to order large quantities of labels for fast-moving consumer goods and risk expensive waste. MO operators can maintain consistent levels of quality whatever the size of the run, anywhere in the world,” says Landberg.
