Gallus keeps Linoprint L as Heidelberg sells CSAT

Heidelberg has sold its CSAT inkjet subsidiary to Markem-Imaje, a Dover Corporation company – but Gallus will continue to hold the distribution rights for the CSAT-manufactured Linoprint L inkjet press.

Gallus Linoprint L

Markem-Imaje is a global manufacturer of coding and marking equipment including inkjet and thermal transfer printers, laser coders and print-apply systems.

In a statement, Gallus said it will ‘continue to offer the Linoprint L inkjet rotary printing press, manufactured by CSAT, in its defined regional markets and to work with CSAT and Markem-Imaje on enhancing the product.’

The Linoprint L uses drop-on-demand technology and offers a native resolution of 600 dpi and a printing speed of up to 48 m/min in four-color mode. Gallus also offers its ECS C digital label converting unit.

Said Gallus: ‘With Markem-Imaje’s in-depth expertise in digital printing and 25 years of success in the marking and coding sector, the future and further development of this offline and near-line digital solution is secure. Gallus is also working closely with Heidelberg on further developing its range of digital services for industrial label printing in the areas of workflow management, prepress and color management.’
