The Keller Crescent team found that the addition of digital printing technology to specifically support short-run, fast-turnaround jobs also necessitated changes to related systems in order to avoid production bottlenecks. For instance, the digital printing of pressure-sensitive labels led the company to also upgrade its converting equipment to more efficiently deliver the diecutting capabilities and full range of water-based and UV coatings required by pharmaceutical customers. The upgrade was accomplished with Grafisk Maskinfabrik (GM)'s DC330 converter unit, which is designed to operate in-line with the Xeikon 3300, and can transition to an off-line converting solution to manage bottleneck situations that may still arise.
