Durst, manufacturer of digital production technologies, has announced Adesa, one of France’s most respected label-making printers, as the first company in Europe to invest in the Durst in-line digital laser finishing system for the Tau 330 UV inkjet label press that incorporates state-of-the-art diecutting technology from Spartanics.
Durst is providing a complete digital end-to-end workflow with fully automatic job changeover in a single pass. This is filling an important gap in the market for Adesa, which has started winning new contracts since opting for the Durst 330 LFS on-line system after carrying out extensive research.
Brice Carugati, President of Adesa, which is based near Nimes, in southern France, said: "This machine is unique in that it does printing and diecutting all in one pass. Another important factor for our investment is the extremely vivid white, which prints far better than on the machine I used previously. And screen printing was also out of the question because is very slow and expensive, so not suitable for the type of work I need to do for customers.
Brice added: "We took our time to familiarise ourselves with the technology, which allows us to produce self-adhesive labels in a totally digital stream. This dramatically reduces our production time and increases responsiveness.”
Adesa has configured its Durst Tau 330 inkjet press in seven colours, with orange and purple complementing the primary colours (CMYK).
