An Omet iFlex has been sold to Kolkata-based Insight Graphics Pvt. Ltd., which saw the press showcased for the first time in India at Labelexpo India in November 2016. The iFlex, a 10-color all UV press with iVision registration control, quick change diecutting system, complex matrix rewinder, hot air dryer, delam/relam system, web turnbar, cold foil station and two diecutting stations, has been installed at Insight Graphics’ factory in Kolkata.

The iFlex label press is simple to use and quick at setup. The press is designed to simplify the printer’s work in reaching high quality. It includes laser-assisted pre-register and register setting devices that speed up the machine setup and reboot after job change. According to Omet, iFlex has the shortest web path in narrow web printing for enhanced savings in the start-up phase (waste measured is below the transition paper between two prints).

iFlex has all the impression rollers in Direct Drive, which provides benefits on the print quality and in waste savings. The machine handles a wide range of sizes, from 5.5″ to 18” for small spending in printing plates production. iFlex is designed to work continuously, without maintenance stops. It is a robust, silent press, meant for intensive work cycles and performance, and consistent results.
