Primera Announces FX1200e Digital Label Finishing System

News Image
A manufacturer of digital colour label presses and colour label printers, have announced its new FX1200e Digital Label Finishing System.
Primera Technology, Inc.'s FX1200e is an off-line label production machine that accepts up to 305 mm (12") O.D. rolls of printed output from digital label presses such as Primera’s CX1200e Digital Color Label Press. It "finishes" the printed output with several different operations including:
  • Lamination – with clear polypropylene (PP) or polyester (PET) films for increased durability and UV resistance
  • Digital die-cutting – in any size or shape
  • Waste matrix removal – making finished rolls ready for use
  • Slitting – for making multiple narrow rolls from the wider input roll
  • Rewinding – onto multiple 76 mm (3") O.D. cores
Utilising Primera’s patent-pending QuadraCut technology, virtually any size and shape of label can be produced including complicated contour cuts, without the need to purchase expensive rotary or flat dies. Up to four cutting blades can be installed at one time to quadruple the speed compared to competitive machines that use only a single blade.
"After introducing our ground-breaking CX1200e Digital Colour Label Press last year we discovered that the few existing finishing systems available were not fast enough, not reliable enough and not easy enough to use. So, we built our own," said Mark D. Strobel, Primera’s Vice President of Sales and Marketing. "The result is FX1200e. There’s nothing else that compares to it for even four or five times the price."
FX1200e ships fully assembled. It includes everything needed to begin finishing labels. All operation is controlled through an integrated touch screen PC. Cutting files can easily be imported through 10/100/Gigabit Ethernet, a wireless 802.11 b/g network or USB thumb drives.
"Although FX1200e is ideal for finishing digital output created by a wide range of digital presses, it’s the perfect companion to Primera's CX1200e Digital Color Label Press," said Mr. Strobel. "Together, CX1200e and FX1200e sell for less than € 50,000. That's a 'game-changer.' Capabilities like this used to cost hundreds of thousands of dollars."
FX1200e is the industry's first and only digital label finishing system to be UL listed, CE certified and FCC Class A approved, reflecting Primera's dedication to the highest-quality design, engineering and manufacturing.
