Packaging Solutions
Enprom Solutions has secured its first UK order for the eRR40 dual doctoring solution from Leeds based Olympus Print Group, specialist in self-adhesive labels, shrink sleeves and large format digital print.
Olympus operates across a wide range of market sectors including premium beers, wines and spirits and household products. In targeting specific markets, the business has invested heavily in its production capabilities over the years, placing an emphasis on futureproofing wherever possible.
The eRR40 provides label and flexible packaging manufacturers two working modes: for shrink sleeves – by verifying of the correct seaming of the sleeve tube, by means of the balloon validation system with electronic detection; and for the flexible packaging market – by inspecting, checking and doctoring reels up to 400 mm web width, allowing for repair printing and slitting defects.
Olympus will be using the eRR40 as a bi-directional inspection and rewinding solution for its printed shrink sleeves offering. In this capacity, the doctoring solution consists of a compact and ergonomic unit with integrated unwinder and rewinder, which is designed to unwind and rewind the material and detect defects. The eRR40 can also be complemented with different options.
With safety at the forefront of design, the eRR40 includes an acoustic alarm and an LED warning system, to notify the operator of the current machine state.
‘With a highly specified off line ABG Digicon 3 already playing such a key role in our digital print division, we were expecting the engineering and quality of the eRR40 to be equally impressive – we weren’t disappointed,’ said Adrian Brown, managing director at Olympus Print Group. ‘The compact and ergonomic design of the machine makes this an excellent solution for our business, allowing us to increase productivity without taking up a large footprint.’
