Prati shows finishing expertise

Prati is displaying Digi Compact, the converting and finishing line for self-adhesive labels and digitally printed flexible packaging, with JetFx digital embellishment unit at Labelexpo Americas 2024.

This ‘small but mighty’ machine can combine analog and digital technology on a wide range of materials from 12-350 microns and after capturing the audience at drupa by converting, in a roll-to-stack configuration, the ‘Messages from the Prati Galaxy’ into Prati philosophical cards, is now ready to show the overseas audience with a different configuration.  

It is being exhibited with a cutting unit and a rewinder and can perform the converting of self-adhesive material from roll-to-roll for the rewinding of large rolls and subsequent finishing passage on the control table (Q/C machine), as well as roll-to-roll finishing in a single pass. Furthermore, the rewinding shafts, from 25.4-152mm in diameter, is interchangeable. This configuration also includes a cutting module for the division of tracks and/or the removal of side trims. 

In addition to being ergonomic and compact, it is characterized by a reduced paper passage and with a view to environmental sustainability, ensures a reduction of waste during the set-up phase. Simple to use by the operator, it has several functions managed directly autonomously by the machine. As for flexibility, Digi Compact is also a multitasking machine as it allows many types of processing (roll-to-roll, roll-to-sheet and roll-to-stack) all-in-one.
