MHL
Innovative narrow offset press with variable-sleeve technology and cost-efficient LED-UV, providing label converters with wider business opportunities thanks to its film-capability. Designed specifically for label and film printing.
Strong, solid and reliable press construction with quality-proven offset printing technology which enables flexible packaging printers to achieve the best printing quality.
The MHL features a plate and blanket cylinder in their patent pending metal sleeve structure, making format changes easier than a conventional cassette system, reducing job change over time. By using energy efficient LED-UV power consumption during printing in cut by nearly 70% compared with that of a conventional UV dryer. Due to the very low heat of the LED-UV it’s possible to print on heat-sensitive substrates, even unsupported films, bringing the capabilities of the machine into the flexo market. Also zero ozone emissions from the LED-UV lamp and no convention mercury lamp mean the MHL is a more environmentally friendly solution. The MHL offers superior print quality than flexo or letterpress, with a lower plate cost. The superior dot reproduction and half-tone expression makes for q quality, clean print every time. Units such as varnishing, foil stamping, and processing units like perforating and punching are available and easily added to the MHL. Each printing unit is being driven by a high-end servo-driven, from Bosch-Rexroth, running independently or synchronised with other units. It also features a sleeve system for Blanket and Impression cylinder printing providing dramatic reduction of job changeover times.
Maximum printing speed of 180m/min. (option) with repeat length up to 609.6mm enable to produce short-run to middle-run productions.
