Gearless Retrofit Optimizes Flexographic
Envelope Printing

EMC Industrial specializes in enhancing and maintaining systems for the envelope industry. Acting on a request for proposal from a major envelope maker to upgrade a 5-color press feeding an envelope machine, EMC contacted its local distributor for a Control Techniques solution.

Registered in feeds allow the envelope manufacturer to accurately feed pre-printed web into an envelope machine so the envelope is cut and formed relative to the pre-printed image. In addition to an accurate in feed, the envelope company wanted to be able to offer its envelope customers a sharper and more colorful printed product with tighter color registration, and to obtain greater job flexibility out of its aging F.L. Smithe press and envelope converter.

EMC had been very happy with the Control Techniques solutions developed for other projects, and was excited as the client about the new Control Techniques solution being proposed.
