DuPont Packaging Graphics has announced
a global agreement to market
a series of print adapters and
adapters for CDI imaging manufactured by
Inometa, as part of the DuPont Cyrel round
flexographic printing workflow.
The Inometa compressible adapters are specially
designed to optimize the performance
of both Cyrel round Thin sleeves and Cyrel
Fast round Thin sleeves, and provide excellent
register accuracy, low dot gain and outstanding
print quality from
run to run. Made of precision
fiberglass, they are
engineered to be sturdy
and smooth running with
minimal run-out; ideal for
today’s high performance,
high speed presses. The
adapters have a rubber
stop and bayonet locking
system for superior handling
and long life, and are
available in all standard
sizes.
“This multi-year agreement
confirms that Inometa
and DuPont are jointly committed to
accelerating the introduction of the quality
and productivity of in-the round flexographic
printing into the marketplace, meeting the
growing demand in all regions,” said Matthias
Heinzel, global business director - DuPont
Packaging Graphics.
“We are very excited to partner with DuPont,
one of the innovative leaders of the flexo industry”,
said Dr. Ulrich von Hülsen, General
Manager of Inometa. “Our adapters are ideally
suited for in-the-round applications because
of our deep knowledge of composite
technology combined with our expertise in
flexographic engineering.”
The Inometa adapters will be featured in the
DuPont booths at upcoming trade fairs, including
ProFlex, September 20-21, in
Stuttgart, and LabelExpo, from September
28- October 1, in Brussels.
With a history of 30 years of innovation in
light weight design, Inometa (www.inometa.de)
has established its core competence
in the development and manufacturing
of aluminum, carbonfibre, and composite
rotationally symmetrical products.
As one of the printing industry’s leaders in
this field, Inometa uses its deep knowledge
of Flexography to offer quality solutions to
meet today's very diverse printing process
requirements.
With the two manufacturing facilities, one in
Appleton, Wisconsin and the other in Warburg,
Germany Inometa offers a product
spectrum that includes all the rotating elements
in flexographic printing.
