Standing Ovation For OMET

Press release from the issuing company

With new XFlex X4, that debuted at Label Expo 2011, OMET sets new standards for the label market, meanwhile reaffirming its role of innovation-oriented company and a frontrunner.

Label Expo Europe 2011 has been really satisfying for OMET, large crowds visited their booth and watched all demonstrations of the 3 presses on display. Interest of visitors was very high for all OMET products: “We had great expectations from this year’s Label Expo after such an amount of innovation we presented - comments Marco Calcagni, OMET Sales Director - the launch of the XFlex X4 press, the new offset group with sleeves in the XFlex range, a breakthrough matrix removal unit available on our whole machine range. Not to speak of the release 2 of our Register control system VISION and the “Transparent Factory” Machine Management System that creates a bridge between the press and any customer’s system”.

The debut of XFlex X4

The XFlex X4, a totally new press with print cylinders, belonging to the XFlex range, is inheriting from its elder sister X6 an even shorter web path, low wastage levels and simplicity in use, all characteristics, which have impressed label converters since Label Expo 2007. The true revolution resides in the fact that this cost-efficient press, perfect for beginners or low budget converters, has twin servo-motors on each print unit and integrates the pre- and register system VISION-1 by OMET. Plus, it is a versatile press also offering user-friendliness, ergonomics of use and safe operation.

“The crowd gathered at each demo on XFlex X4, Varyflex V2 and XFlex X6 was a pleasure to watch and so were the customers comments, questions and interest after each performance”, continues Marco Calcagni, “this means that we still have the capability to excite and impress the label market with inventions and equipment which is what the industry needs and can solve our customers’ every day problems. This is the kind of improvement we believe in and strive for and we were happy to present OMET's printing press innovation in our booth”.
