Baker’s FB-3 partially built during the purchasing process
Baker Labels continue to invest in top of the range presses and for its 40th anniversary will install the first Nilpeter FB-3 in the UK this September.
Managing director, Steve Baker, said, ‘Both digital and flexo processes have important qualities and it’s important that we stay on top of both markets to ensure that we can deliver first class labels to our diverse customer base. The purchase of the FB-3 will allow us to meet the growing demand for labels economically whilst maintaining exact colour-matching, a prerequisite for big brands.’
The company is currently running three HP Indigo presses, having added the WS6600 in January; it now produces over 50,000 digital impressions per day.
The company’s investment in the Nilpeter FB-3 and the complimentary HSR 330 will facilitate high-quality, cost-effective printing. The machine represents the latest technology integrated into a new, ground-up designed platform.
The ergonomically designed printing stations each has five servos for complete automation of all adjustments including job save, job load, and job change, as well as pre-setting, impression settings, and side-register load.
