Traco Packaging of Orem, Utah, USA, has installed a new 10-colour Nilpeter FA-17, their first from the Danish printing press manufacturer.

According to the company, the FA-17 is a perfect fit for Traco’s production of pressure sensitive labels, shrink sleeves, and flexible packaging. ‘Built around the modern printing operator, with an intuitive user-interface and fully mobile print controls, the Nilpeter FA-Line provides a maximum level of stability, the tightest register tolerance, and excellent printing results on multiple substrates: all normal self-adhesive materials, including flexible packaging films, polymer films, metallic films, and paper,’ according to Nilpeter.
‘The new Nilpeter press fits perfectly into our portfolio, right in that sweet spot between our 13-inch digital presses and our wider flexo presses,’ said Gary Whitehead, print and prepress manager, Traco Packaging.
‘From a technical standpoint, and on quality, we’ve been very impressed with what Nilpeter has to offer. To be honest, we’ve always looked for an excuse to get a Nilpeter press, so when the opportunity presented itself, we jumped at the chance,’ Whitehead continued.
‘We’re looking forward to a great relationship with Nilpeter – their ability to stay on schedule in this environment has been nothing short of amazing; they’ve kept their promises, and that just goes to show what a quality company it is in terms of technical ability, manufacturing, and planning,’ Whitehead concluded.
