Lexon Group of Newport, South Wales, recently installed one of the first Highcon® Euclid IIIS digital cutting and creasing machines in Europe. The 40 year old print service provider specializes in delivering the unusual, the difficult and the unique, super-fast, and sees the adoption of digital cutting and creasing as a strategic leap forward. The Group produces a wide variety of applications – special packaging, popups and presentation packs alongside day to day print work. Under the slogan “Thinking About the Box” they will be introducing the capabilities of the Highcon Euclid IIIS at special Highcon Open Days to be held on May 17th-18th.
According to Garth Davis, Group Managing Director, “We push the boundaries of production and have specialized in producing complicated print projects within highly pressured deadlines. When we saw the Highcon technology we immediately saw the potential of adding this game-changing machine to our in-house capabilities.”
The Highcon Euclid IIIS digital cutting and creasing machine integrates seamlessly into existing B2 sheet size workflow at a speed of 2,000 sheets an hour. This third generation machine improves supply chain responsiveness, enabling rapid turnaround time and on-demand digital finishing. By eliminating the tooling and setup of conventional diecutters, Highcon customers are developing and producing a wide range of new, high value applications that differentiate them and give them a competitive edge.
