ASL Print FX Adds Prati Saturn Slitter/Rewinder

Pioneers of both digital and flexographic technology for high end wine and spirit labels, ASL in Napa, CA has opted for the Prati Saturn TE450 slitter/rewinder to enhance their production efficiency and exploit the versatility the equipment is sure to offer.

Totally flexible and based on the recently developed open-platform technology called Futura, the Saturn range of slitter/rewinders run at high speeds and offer maximum adaptability to future needs, avoiding downtime for retrofits and consequent loss in terms of production. Thanks to the Futura technology, the Saturn TE450 is also equipped to comply with Industry 4.0 standards and can be connected to customers' MIS systems to exploit data and improve production efficiency.

The machine has an additional flexo unit and works inline with a Pantec Rhino hot-stamp / embossing unit to achieve the highest quality in embellishment for high-end wine and spirits labels.

With its new generation motion technology and a unique self-sharpening slitting knife system, the Saturn handles a wide range of PS label materials on paper and film liners including the UPM PP30 and AD PET micron liners, booklet, tube laminate, aluminum foil, Tyvek, cardboard, multi laminate. Quick set-up routines ensure all systems are ready to run simultaneously, making it safer and faster to start producing.
