30 | L&L press with a 340mm web width and line shaft drive. It is fitted with a closed-loop tension system, web guide, a corona treater, automatic electronic register, and an overhead rail system with moveable turn bars and a cold foil unit. The eight flexo printing units and three die-cutting stations, which all have motorized advance and retard, are followed by a matrix rewind, and UV/ Hot Air combination drying that accommodates water-based, UV and solvent inks. The press, which has 50mm side frames and weighs in at 23 tons, is designed to print substrates from 20-micron film and foil to 350gsm lightweight board, at speeds up to 230 m/min. Installed when Xerox moved into its new 1,200 sqm facility in rue Bernard Lathière, on the outskirts of Limoges, the Autoflex is currently working a single shift pattern. Speaking for the press manufacturer, Matthew Berkeley-Hill comments: ‘We design our presses with the operator in mind and make them easy to run and quick to change over between jobs,’ which supports the views of press operator Jean-Marc Mandon, who says: ‘The Autoflex is a stable production platform that holds exceptional register even during slow down and ramp up back to full speed.’ The move to the new factory also brought the installation of a second iGen3 press. According to Jean Michel Moreau: ‘The additional printing capacity we now have allows us to service our existing contracts more easily and offer a wider range of quality products to a more diversified list of companies, mostly in the food and pharmaceutical markets in France and elsewhere.’ In 2013, Xerox launched its new ‘Label’ service to existing and potential customers. Based on the knowledge and technical expertise at the Limoges plant, it has become part of the company’s sales department’s business offer, and is a perfect complement to the full business process solution its provides. Claimed savings of up to 30 percent in print and output costs on jobs from leaflets to short, medium, and long run label work, "The additional printing capacity we now have allows us to service our existing contracts more easily and offer a wider range of quality products to a more diversified list of companies" have transformed the Limoges production unit into a facility that produces 250 million labels each year, and it has the capacity to produce many more. ‘Our aim is to provide simple answers to today’s complex business problems,’ explains Moreau, who says that Xerox now operates in over 160 countries worldwide, and employs more than 140,000 people. Last year, it generated annual revenue in excess of 23 billion US dollars, making it the world’s largest provider of business process and document management services. Commenting on Xerox’s choice of the Autoflex press, Matthew Berkeley-Hill states: ‘We feel proud and privileged to be one of Xerox’s approved suppliers, and have built a very close working relationship that will benefit both companies going forward. We are well aware of the great potential for growth at Xerox, and will design and adapt our technology to meet their specific requirements.’ Concluding, for Xerox, Jean Michel Moreau adds: ‘When we put out the tender for a new flexo press, only Berkeley was able to fulfill all of our requirements. It is essential that we can meet our customers’ expectations at all times, and the Autoflex has allowed us to do this without the need to call on subcontractors for the more complex and long run label jobs. This allows us to provide our customers with better productivity and costings.’ Applied Rigaku Technologies, Inc. website: www.RigakuEDXRF.com | email: info@RigakuEDXRF.com LABELS&LABELING
