UK Label printers, Labels Fast Ltd, based in Leicester, have recently installed the latest FS 330 Series Slitter-Rewinder / Die-Cutter from UK manufacturer, Focus Label Machinery – as part of an ongoing modernisation programme across their range of label production equipment.
Labels Fast Ltd is a long established, family-owned company, supplying a range of printed, plain and digital self-adhesive labels, as well as printed and woven textile labels, swing tickets and thermal printing systems to all sectors of industry and retail across the UK.
The new Focus machine is configured as an inspection-slitter-rewinder, with a full rotary die station for the converting of blank labels. It has been installed alongside several existing Focus flexo presses & textile label presses, enabling increased capacity and faster turn-arounds.
The Focus FS model is available with web widths of 250mm, 330mm & 430mm and can be supplied with several different configurations – including twin die stations. The large capacity unwind has been specified to accommodate a full master roll, whilst scissor slitting, pneumatic crush slitting and razor slitting options are all available.
Managing Director, Mr Isaan Farooq commented…
‘As our orders have continued to increase, we needed to increase our capacity for blank label production. We’ve known Focus for many years and already have quite a number of their label printing presses, so we had no hesitation in ordering the new label converter from them. We have developed a good working partnership with Focus. Their equipment is well made & reliable, whilst the back-up service is excellent.’
Focus Sales Manager, Antony Cotton added ‘It has been a pleasure working with Labels Fast and we are delighted that they have once again, chosen Focus to supply their latest converting equipment.’
