Miyakoshi Semi-rotary offset UV Label Press – Miyakoshi MLP-C

Semi-rotary UV offset for label printing

Specifically designed to address the fast-growing demand of shorter-run productions of high-quality labels. Offers short makereadies as well as reduced wastage of materials.

Thanks to the full integration of the latest servo-motor technology, the MLP-C ensures precise forward and backward movement of the web while maintaining perfect web tension throughout its travel through the machine. Changeovers are fast thanks to the fully automatic electronic format changeover system, facilitating this task without the use of tools.

The proven quality of offset technology allows the printer to achieve the best print quality, with clear dots and a good tonal gradation that both flexo and letterpress technology cannot achieve.

Offset technology, in addition to printing at a very high quality, also reduces start-up costs, as evidenced by the fact that the cost of the plate is considerably lower than with Flexo technology.

Because this cost is lower than other technologies, it allows label printers to reduce their production costs, securing their margins in an increasingly competitive market.

Each printing unit is controlled by a Bosch-Rexroth servo-driven motor and can work independently and/or synchronously.

Fast changeover times thanks to fully automatic electronic system

The various digitally managed controls and settings, such as register control, ink/water balance and inkwell settings, allow standardisation of the machine’s use.

With up to 406.4 mm repeat length, you get great flexibility in label imposition, larger label printing and very high productivity.

Its patented tension control system, based on 2 servo-driven rollers in the unwinding unit and 2 in the rewinding unit, ensures accurate registration and stable tension control at maximum speed.
