Luca Celotti, Marketing Manager for Celmacch, has confirmed the company recently started up a Chroma Print High Tech 2100 HBL at DS Smith’s plant in Vilagarcia de Arosa (Pontevedra). This is the latest model Chroma High Tech, with a format of 2100 x 1300mm; it is equipped with three colours, but has been delivered in such a way that additional printing units can be added at a later date.
This Chroma Print is equipped with a direct drive belt feeder controlled by Siemens independent motors, which is suitable for fine flute corrugated board. The press also features a quick set-up system for the changing of the stereo during production, as well as the new Celmacch wash up system managed by Siemens PLC with double peristaltic pumps. The machine is also equipped with a Celmacch infrared drying system and sheet ejector for quality control.
“Chroma Print allows DS Smith Galizia to have significant additional capacity thanks to the quality of printing achieved in this new machine,” explains Mr Celotti “Capacity increases can also be achieved thanks to being able to prepare the next job during production.”
Mr Celotti continues, “We have had some good success in the Spanish market. Over the last few months, some of the leading Spanish companies have put their trust in our technology by placing orders for the new model of Chroma Print. With the first installation at DS Smith in Galicia, we are proud of this success, proving once again that our machines are a good alternative. The fact that leading international groups are buying our machines confirms our technological solutions are helping boxplants to become more efficient and produce higher quality work.”
