The newly installed Xeikon 3300 narrow web label press

 

Mexico-based Eticom has invested in a Xeikon 3300 narrow web label press to enhance its production platform, offer new applications and attract new customers.

Spread over its two facilities in Mexico City and Monterrey, the company operates 16 flexo presses and two high-end digital presses. The Xeikon 3300 features size and format capabilities that are not available with the company’s current presses.

Owner Jesus Ramirez said, ‘Adding the Xeikon 3300 offers us a number of benefits. First, Xeikon presses are relatively new in the Mexican market, so that alone sets us apart. In addition, this new press gives us the ability to take advantage of a wider web width and larger format size with a virtually unlimited repeat length. It requires no priming and can print on a broader range of substrates than our existing digital presses. And finally, it blends in perfectly with our established installed base of digital and flexo presses, delivering the same high quality. That allows us to mix and match jobs across multiple presses for optimum load balancing.’
