Imprimerie Ideale, has purchased an eight colour (full UV) Edale FL5 Carton with an FDC-510 flatbed die-cutter, primarily for the production of folding cartons.

The investment was made in order to enhance the company’s capabilities of printing within the food, beverage and cosmetics industries.

Morocco has a demanding market for food packaging and with its new FL5 press, Imprimerie Ideale aims to become a major carton packaging supplier in the region.

Ideale also opted for a film pack which enables the company to print filmic substrates alongside carton board. The FL5 press comes fully equipped with the Edale AiiR (Autonomous inking, impression and register) Advanced Register Pack. Benefits include consistent quality and control through the print run, job data storage and recall from camera system as well as automatic register set-up and continuous register monitoring.

The FDC-510 flatbed die-cutter combines the best of sheet fed flatbed die cutting technology with a cutting edge servo driven constant tension web transport system. Benefits include a short set-up time (under 15 minutes), an approximate 90% reduction in solid rotary tooling, high productivity and speed as well as being reconfigurable for different carton sizes and form.
