Konica Minolta plans for Labelexpo India 2024

Konica Minolta India has confirmed its participation at Labelexpo India 2024, showcasing its latest range of products and technology in label printing. This year’s exhibition will feature the company’s AccurioLabel series, designed to meet the emerging needs of customization, speed and sustainability in the packaging industry.

The highlight at Konica Minolta stand will be the AccurioLabel 400. The digital label press features CMYK + white toner capabilities, with print speeds of up to 39.9 meters per min and seamless integration with conventional print workflows. In addition, the company will present automated digital die-cutting and workflow technology to illustrate the ease of hybrid printing systems.

The AccurioLabel 400 delivers enhanced print quality with good color accuracy. Its white toner option can be used for luxury packaging, enhancing the depth and visual appeal of labels. Complementing this, the AccurioLabel 230 provides enhanced job flexibility, optimized for a diverse range of substrates, including synthetic films and textured papers.

Both models are powered by AccurioPro Flux software, an advanced workflow system that streamlines operations by automating repetitive tasks, thereby reducing production time and ensuring consistent print quality. 

Konica Minolta’s participation at Labelexpo reflects its commitment to sustainability. The company has implemented initiatives such as toner recycling programs, energy-efficient technologies and partnerships promoting eco-friendly practices in print production. In addition to green printing practices, the AccurioLabel systems enable converters to reduce material waste through precise ink and media usage.

Commenting on the exhibition, Katsuhisa Asari, managing director at Konica Minolta Business Solution India, said: ‘At Labelexpo India 2024, we gear up to present our innovative label printing technologies that are productivity partners as well as disruption insulators. Our solutions enable businesses to produce high-quality labels efficiently while adapting to the fast-paced nature of consumer preferences. Our products sit at the nexus of sustainable and cutting-edge digital transformation, allowing for personalized label production that meets diverse market demands.’

Konica Minolta aims to meet the dynamic needs of small and medium businesses (SMBs) and industrial clients with its products, designed to efficiently manage short-run productions and high-volume jobs.

While flexo printing continues to dominate large-scale production, the growing demand for variable data printing (VDP) has driven the adoption of hybrid printing solutions. Konica Minolta’s digital presses integrate smoothly with conventional systems, enabling printers to manage a range of projects from mass-market jobs to highly personalized labels.
