THE MOST VERSATILE SINGLE-PASS CARTON PRESS YOU'VE EVER SEEN.
This carton has been produced in a single pass using the Edale FL5, 510mm with inline (FDC) Flatbed Die Cutter.
COLD FOIL
has been laminated on the FL5 Prime full width to give the effect of more costly Met PET cartons.
EMBOSSING
is added inline on the FDC to give a 3D tactile effect.
UNIQUE UNIPRINT
Colours are printed using Edales unique Uniprint print head to ensure the best possible quality.
AIIR SYSTEM
(Autonomous Inking Impression and Registration) on the FL5 gives unparalleled automation and repeatability of quality and print accuracy.
CAST & CURE
has been added to give a finish that adds brand protection and allows the carton to really stand out from other production methods.
CUT, CREASED & STRIPPED
The carton was finally cut, creased and stripped before being discharged onto a conveyor by the FDC 600.
From raw material to finished carton in 1 minute!
ALL IN A SINGLE PASS
HIGHLY FLEXIBLE, FULLY CUSTOMISABLE PRESS FOR HIGH VOLUME RUNS
The FL5 + RDC is a high productivity printing and converting machine for cartons, scratch cards and labels where there are infrequent job changes.
The fully servo driven system allows for easy and repeatable setups in both the printing and converting sections. The rotary die-cutting technology (RDC enables high speed production of both sheets and die-cut product whilst maintaining the versatility of a one pass production).
It comes in 510, 570 and 650mm web widths.
Edale is open and willing to work with customers to customise the configuration to meet your exact requirements, whether this be a change to a single module or the complete line. Our modular design and flexibility allows for many additional features, including but not limited to: laminating, cold foiling, hot foiling, screen, reverse print, cut to sheet or reel to reel configurations.
This flexibility means that the FL5 + RDC can be configured for a wide range of applications such as: single pass cartons, single pass scratch cards, paper cups, sleeves and much more. Single pass production significantly reduces work in progress, number of operators, space requirement, waste and delivery times whilst also increasing overall efficiency of traditional multi pass production methods.
The FL5 + RDC GIVES YOU:
- Increased productivity
- Single pass production
- Modular design- allows for future
- Full servo driven technology and full motorised adjustment allows quick and repeatable set up
- Autonomous closed loop register maintains accurate registration in both x and y directions reducing the need for operator intervention
- Advanced HMI gives unlimited job storage function allowing for detailed job data to be used for fast and accurate job set-up
- The rail system allows for additional options such as laminating, reverse print, foiling and screen to be easily moved between print units.
