Label printing
DG press Hybrid Web Offset presses enable short runs with the lowest costs, the shortest time-to-market, and the lowest carbon footprint.
Our presses allow for the application of required functional coatings inline after printing for IML, and combine web offset with a downstream flexo unit for printing wrap-around labels and shrink sleeves on a variety of materials at the highest printing quality. Even cutting and die-cutting of wet glue labels can be done inline on a hybrid web offset press.
Web offset with energy curing can print on a wide variety of materials, including paper, film, and foil. Additionally, web offset printing offers the ability to print with a wide range of colors and designs, making it a versatile option for creating high-quality labels.
Unique Selling Points
Versatile Repeat Ranges
Suitable for various printing needs, from short runs to large batches. In the label printing industry, one of the common challenges printers face is the need to handle both short and long print runs efficiently. Traditional printing methods often require significant setup time and cost, making it difficult to switch between different job sizes without sacrificing profitability.
The DG-AUXO Hybrid Web Offset press addresses this issue with its versatile repeat ranges, allowing printers to seamlessly switch between short runs and large batches. Whether you need to produce a small quantity of labels for a niche product or a large volume for a major brand, the DG-AUXO can handle it all with ease. This flexibility ensures that printers can meet varying customer demands without compromising on efficiency or quality.
Modular Built
In the dynamic world of label printing, printers often face the challenge of adapting to various job requirements and customer demands. Traditional presses can be rigid and limited in their capabilities, making it difficult to customize and optimize the printing process for different applications. Whether it’s integrating additional flexo units, die-cutting stations, or specialized coating units, the DG-AUXO can be tailored to handle any specific job. This customization ensures that printers can offer bespoke solutions to their clients, enhancing customer satisfaction and expanding their market reach.
The DG-AUXO eliminates the need for multiple specialized presses by allowing printers to add or remove modules based on their current requirements. This modular approach reduces capital expenditure and operational costs, providing a versatile solution that maximizes return on investment. Printers can allocate their resources more efficiently, focusing on areas that drive business growth and innovation.
Efficiency
Cost-effective and time-saving solutions for faster time-to-market. Printers often struggle with the need to apply functional coatings and perform finishing processes in separate steps, leading to increased production times and higher costs. The DG-AUXO Hybrid Web Offset press solves this problem by enabling inline application of functional coatings and finishing processes.
For example, in-mold labels (IML) and wrap-around labels require specific coatings to enhance durability and appearance. With the DG-AUXO, these coatings can be applied directly inline after printing, eliminating the need for additional equipment and reducing production time. Additionally, the press’s ability to integrate downstream flexo units means that printers can achieve high-quality results on a variety of materials, including paper, film, and foil, in a single pass. This integrated approach streamlines the production process, enhances efficiency, and ensures consistent quality. By minimizing setup times and reducing waste, the DG-AUXO provides a cost-effective solution for diverse printing needs.
Eco-Friendly
Designed-for-recycling mono-material packaging options to reduce carbon footprint.
One of the primary challenges in label printing is the environmental impact of traditional materials and processes. Many conventional labels are made from multi-layered materials that are difficult to recycle, leading to increased waste. The DG-AUXO enables eco-friendly practices and the use of mono-material packaging options that are easier to recycle, significantly reducing the environmental footprint of printed labels. This not only helps printers meet regulatory requirements but also aligns with the growing consumer demand for sustainable products.
The trend towards sustainability is only going to grow, and printers need to be prepared for future demands. By investing in technology that prioritizes recyclability and reduces carbon footprint, printers can stay ahead of industry trends and position themselves as leaders in sustainable printing. This forward-thinking approach ensures long-term business viability and success in an evolving market.
