Process Progress

John Thome, Director of Sales and Marketing at Fusion Aetek, joins Perre's belief that UV flexo won't be losing its momentum anytime soon, "because flexo people have realized they can now compete with offset."

UV flexo's popularity hasn't distracted suppliers from efforts to serve other processes. Fusion Aetek, for one, has engineered a smaller version of its Ultrapak line for its core narrow-web flexo customers, which can cure heat sensitive films without chill rolls, and features an efficient constant wattage power system. At the same time, however, it has expanded the Ultrapak line to 34" and 600 wpi for wider, speedier offset business forms applications.
