Bobst will be bringing its Speedwave 2 technology to its UK and Ireland Competence Center in Redditch, in May. The patented device, specifically designed for Expertfold 80 and 110 folder-gluers, is designed to reduce set-up time and enhance speed, quality and productivity.

‘Speedwave 2 is the second generation of Bobst Speedwave technology and an exceptional device for Expertfold 80 and 110 machines,’ explained sales manager Stuart Alvey-Taylor. ‘Extremely easy to set up and highly ergonomic with one button for all settings, the device requires 80% less tooling to be set and offers a more stable folding process throughout the speed range. It’s great to see its arrival at the Competence Center in Redditch and we look forward to showcasing its innovative features and benefits to our customers.’

The UK and Ireland Competence Center provides customers with the chance to gain the skills and techniques they need to get the most out of their Bobst machines during tailored training courses run by expert process specialists. Delegates are trained in a controlled, focused environment so they can concentrate fully on obtaining the skills needed to take back to their workplace.
