Diecut Global Ltd, the Preston, England-based supplier and manufacturer of corrugated, packaging, print and print finishing machinery, confirms the installation of the largest Goldline Evolution in the world, installed in the UK at one of the largest print and communications companies in the country.
The company had already purchased a Goldline over 5 years ago. This has worked seamlessly on their production floor, so when adding to their die-cutting capabilities they choose the Goldline Evolution with a sheet size of 3100 x 1900 (500sph).
The Goldline range of die-cutters was introduced to the market eight years ago. Steve Waterhouse, Managing Director of Diecut Global, said, “We now have machines in many industries, cutting anything from display work, corrugated packaging, plastic corrugated and cutting all grades of PVC. We have developed Goldlines to cut honeycomb board and thick foams and to even kiss cut vinyl. During this eight year period the Goldline has evolved into a true workhorse in a 24/7 environment.
The Goldline die-cutters come in seven different sizes ranging from 1700 x 1200 to the extreme format of 3100 x 1900. “Cutting with a maximum cutting pressure of 550 tons, this means the machines are significantly stronger and able to cut much more meterage regardless of the substrate than any clamshell platen on the market,” says Waterhouse.
Standard specification includes four modes of operation – single cycle, continuous cycle, dwell and variable speed control. Electronic pressure setting at the touch of a button ensures changeover and make-ready of jobs is significantly quicker than traditional hand fed platens. The Goldline range can come with optional extras – heated bed, wide opening, hardened steel cutting plate and online diagnostics for offsite fast fault finding and correction. Diecut Global also operate an engineering support service to back up all machines installed globally.
