As the latest iteration of Konica Minolta’s digital label print technology, the AccurioLabel 230 digital toner press can run at a speed of 23.4m/min, which in real terms represents a 73% increase, as most self-adhesive papers and films (including PP, PET and YUPO) can be printed at full speed.
“The team at Konica Minolta has always listened to us and taken onboard our feedback,” says Paul. “We have had the opportunity to give them a lot of input on the first label press, with the result that this new model has everything we wanted: web guides, the higher speed and even the ability to slit.”
The many years of cooperation with Konica Minolta is underpinned by an extensive service and support network. “We knew from the start that we could rely on an already established network of engineers who were already on the road on the sheetfed side, so it was an easy transition for them. Also, all the consumable parts of the machine are included in the contract and can be replaced,” says Paul before concluding: “I know sometimes people buy into a brand, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that it is the right machine for them. It is about having the confidence to follow your instinct.
