Martin Automatic will be meeting its friends and customers at the upcoming Labelexpo Europe in Brussels, Belgium. The company, which is a supplier of non-stop unwind, rewind, and tension control equipment to the narrow web flexo and digital printing markets, will have experts on-hand to answer attendee questions about non-stop production and its benefits for the bottom line and carbon footprint.

During the last 24 months, Martin Automatic’s technology has proven essential to web printers and converters as many shifted focus to production of PPE or rapidly increased production of labels, pharmaceutical packaging, shrink sleeves, flexible packaging or pouches. Martin Automatic helped with these decisions and kept pace with deliveries every step of the way, creatively solving start-up and installation issues during restricted travel periods and designing new features and machines based on changing production requirements.

Supply chain disruptions and scarcity of raw materials have emphasized the importance of non-stop automation. The more efficient use of raw material and the ease of processing residual rolls have become all the more important and attractive.

On display at booth 7A35 will be Martin Automatic’s MBS automated butt splicer and LRD rewinder. Technology and space saving packages are available for both models to accommodate customers’ most extreme speed and web tension requirements while minimizing tight floor space. Experts will also explain the patent behind the popular rotary-sheer splice unit and lift and load mechanism on the MBS butt splicer and why automatic roll unloading from the LRD rewind is essential for productivity and operator convenience.
