Glunz & Jensen’s Pennsylvania flexo centre
Glunz & Jensen announce the opening of a second flexo centre in Pennsylvania, USA to serve the Americas market. The first was opened in Milan, Italy, to serve Europe.
The new flexo centre contains a fully equipped demo centre, featuring the latest platemaking equipment for narrow and wide web applications, including exposure units, processing/washout systems, dryers and light finishers, plate thickness measuring tables and plate mounting systems. The centre also provides support and product training for customers and will be expanded to incorporate a demonstration and training centre for the company’s offset platemaking products.
Keld Thorsen, CEO, said, ‘We are ready to support the American flexo industry with a centre for innovation, support and customer training. Our newest centre will enable customers to explore our integrated systems and automated solutions. We would like our customers to discover how our processing expertise really adds value for them.’
General manager, Frank Newman, said, ‘Our new flexo centre here in Quakertown will be the centre of attention for flexo platemaking innovation and product adaption. Innovation comes from the close dialogue and cooperation with our customers. Our new flexo centre will become a tool enabling our plate partners and dealers to conduct testing and demonstrations which will help them to further adapt and optimise our products to the needs of their customers.’
Two of the latest products are the Flex‐in‐One compact unit for water wash flexo plates and the FlexScanner which scans sleeves and adaptors for low/high areas, enabling trade shops and packaging printers to take full control of product quality, before going to press.
