After the overwhelming interest in our Werosys Compact Ultra at LabelExpo last month, we will be installing the first of many at Graphic Druck in Germany. The converting unit is sold by Werosys partner Dortschy.

Graphic Druck have bought the Compact Ultra for their High Quality wine label production and it will be used in combination with Epson Surepress.

The Werosys Compact Ultra is an extremely compact digital converting machine for die cutting and slitting. It has a very small footprint and is one of the most compact and economic converting units in the market, making it ideal for businesses looking for a low-cost entry into label converting. Compact Ultra comes with unwind, full and semi-rotary die cut, slitting and rewind. Lamination station is optional. It can be supplied with either magnetic or pneumatic splice table and with a choice of oscillating razor blades or rotating shear knives.

Amica Systems Europe B.V. and Werosys ApS Denmark will at Labelexpo 2017 in Brussels present a brand new partnership offering unique and new solutions to the digital printing market.

With the combined experience of both companies, customers will get the best of both worlds; a unique full colour UV inkjet system and a servo driven roll-to-roll transport system with a perfect stable transport for excellent print quality.

Patrick Citroen, Managing Director of Amica Europe: “As Amica Systems is highly experienced in the field of industrial inkjet systems, we were searching for a partner with outstanding knowledge on roll-to-roll transport where we can integrate our modular inkjet system. With Werosys we have found a company with all the capabilities we were looking for and, above all, the flexibility to act fast and professional to serve our needs”.

Soren Pedersen, Managing Director of Werosys: “During our initial talks with Amica Systems we quickly came to the conclusion that a collaboration could enable both companies to develop a range of interesting products, which we see a clear need for in the market. By combining Werosys’ highly modular Compact platform with Amica’s unique UV inkjet technology, we developed a solution that can be combined with any Werosys Compact module to form a Hybrid print and converting solution at a very competitive price point. The combination of a number of Werosys fully automated flexo printing modules with CMYK UV inkjet means that our customers can combine printing technologies – and perform final finishing for one-stop label production.”

At Labelexpo, Amica Systems will present the Gemini 330 UV Label Press fully integrated on the Werosys Roll-to-Roll system. Werosys will be demonstrating a hybrid solution were the Amica UV full colour inkjet is fully integrated – and can be combined with either semi-rotary or laser die cutting and automatic slitting.

With this partnership we believe that we will bring truly unique and highly competitive solutions to the label printing market.

Come and see us at LabelExpo, where Amica Systems can be found at stand 9C60 and Werosys at stand 9C24.

As a company driven by Intelligent Converting and IT integration, Werosys is of course in the forefront of this development. Our machines are not only Industry 4.0 ready, we are already up and running with a cloud-based solution where we can monitor all Werosys machines installed throughout the World. We can collect data about machine performance, efficiency of different job types, waste levels, temperature profiles, etc. – and feed this back to our customers as digested data that shows trend curves of machine/operator performance, production hours to next scheduled service based on real time wear data, remaining life time on UV Lamps, improvements recommendations, etc..

This Labels & Labeling article outlines Werosys & LabelSupply’s view on future converting, which demands stronger focus on automation and Industry 4.0. With automated workflow solutions you will get numerous production advantages, such as quicker job changeovers, less material waste, and remote support and service.

The Werosys Compact Digital Print Module offers high speed and high quality printing and converting in one operation, as well as fast job changes. It is able to run both cost-efficient print engines, such as the TrojanThree, and high speed UV-based ink print engines.
The Digital Print Module can be retrofitted to any Werosys Compact already installed, or combined with any of the Werosys Compact modules, now or in the future. This offers a complete digital label production system at an affordable price, while still providing a system that can grow with future demand.
Later on it can be retrofitted with a high speed UV-based inkjet system, operate as a standalone digital converting line, or run in-line with any digital press from HP Indigo, Xeikon, Domino, etc.
