XSYS introduces Flexo Solution Finder online tool

Simon Top, XSYS’ product manager, said: ‘At XSYS, we have a wealth of knowledge and expertise in all areas of flexo printing for labels and packaging production. With Flexo Solution Finder, we want to openly share all this information with our customers to make their life easier and their operations more profitable. Each market segment has its own challenges and we have developed solutions to deal more efficiently with these. By visiting the website, users can find the best matching printing plate; combination of plate, equipment, and software; or advice for their specific problem in just a few clicks.’  

 

The tool guides users through a series of simple steps. First, they choose their active segment(s): flexible packaging, tag and label, corrugated pre-print or corrugated post-print, before identifying themselves as a printer (with or without in-house platemaking) or as a repro house/trade shop. The next step is to choose the ink type and then the substrate, before homing in on the specific area of concern, whether it is costs, print quality, productivity, or sustainability (including health and safety).  

 

Customers can find the answer problems including how to avoid plate swelling, ink filling and trail edge void; reduce press downtime or avoid waste caused by dirty highlight dots; minimize complexity in the process overall; improve sustainability by eliminating solvents; lower ink and plate waste; and Improve productivity and efficiency. If the issue requires more in-depth analysis, individual technical questions can also be submitted directly to XSYS via the Flexo Solution Finder.  

 

Top explained that Flexo Solution Finder was developed as part of our strategy to offer open and flexible solutions that provide customers with the ability to differentiate themselves cost effectively. It addresses the real-life challenges faced by customers in the packaging industry every day and allows them to find the perfect XSYS product or product combination to solve their problems. 

 

With customers’ high interest in XSYS Product Selector, the company recognized the immediate access online tools can provide. Flexo Solution Finder is the next logical step for the company.
