TRESU will display an expanded portfolio of ancillary solutions for optimised ink and coating supply, inline coating systems for digital folding carton and commercial applications, flexo printing units, complete printing lines for food packaging, folding carton and game cards, and comprehensive service programmes. Additionally, TRESU will host a series of talks on converting innovations at its daily ‘Speakers’ Corner’ event on the stand.

Flexo ancillary solutions for automated, waste-free ink supply

TRESU’s flexo ancillary solutions provide enclosed, automatically controlled ink circulation, thus reducing make-ready time and material waste, and assuring uniform quality. The F10 iCon ink supply system regulates ink flow, pressure and viscosity, ensuring a constant, accurate ink density on the printed substrate, without air contamination. This energy-efficient system also provides thorough automatic cleaning, achieving a complete ink change cycle in five to ten minutes.
 

Featuring a patented rubber seal system, TRESU’s chamber doctor blade systems with fast, safe blade exchange, offer airtight closure and a clean, blister-free printed image with fast drying characteristics. The chamber programme includes lightweight, corrosion-resistant carbon fibre and ceramic variants; all converting and coating applications are covered, from closed-cassette chambers for label presses, up to 6000 mm wide types for corrugated board printing and even wider.

Coating systems for integration into digital printing lines

TRESU coating systems are designed for integration with sheet-fed digital folding carton and commercial printing presses, providing the essential link in a seamless single-pass printing and converting line. TRESU’s coating technology will be a highlight at the stands of three leading digital printing press manufacturers.

A working demonstration provides first-hand appreciation of the productivity and precision of the iCoat 30000 Twin, with two coating units, on the HP stand (Hall 17, A01). TRESU will also promote the compatibility and productivity of its integrated coating technology at the stands of other digital press manufacturing partners.
 

TRESU Solutions: High-speed printing lines with fast job change over and flexibility for folding cartons

TRESU will also be exhibiting a printing unit to highlight the productivity and flexibility of its web-fed TRESU Innovator flexo printing lines for folding carton applications. Customised to end-user performance requirements and built with TRESU’s 30 years of press building and engineering expertise, the TRESU Innovator offers a flexo platform in 670 mm, 900 mm, 1100 mm and 1400 mm and 1700 mm widths. In addition, it provides the possibility for seamless integration of processes such as variable data, special coating applications, cold foil and finishing, providing an end-to-end solution for high-value packaging.    

Speakers’ Corner: daily presentations from package print industry experts

Each afternoon on the stand, TRESU hosts ‘Speakers’ Corner’ - a series of short presentations by industry experts from global flexo and digital printing technology providers. Speakers include senior representatives from companies including Siegwerk, Lohmann Tapes, Sappi, Inometa, BST eltromat and TRESU which offers insight into developments in areas such as inks, ancillaries, substrates and process efficiency.

TRESU Group COO Søren Maarssø comments: “The Speakers’ Corner daily talks aim to inspire and raise understanding about the trends, technologies and issues, making the package printer better placed to make informed decisions at a time of significant technological change.”  

In addition, Søren Maarssø will be explaining the value of lean ink logistics at the drupa Cube conference, June 3rd, in a joint presentation with ink dispensing, proofing and software provider GSE Dispensing.
 

Søren Maarssø comments: “Trends towards shorter production runs and the need to reduce setup times have made controlled processes a matter of urgency. TRESU’s engineered flexo solutions, from ancillary products to multi-station printing lines, are helping printers meet these challenges and maintain margins, through their proven ability to eliminate waste and deliver predictable quality. A visit to the TRESU drupa 2016 stand will give first-hand appreciation of how TRESU technology adds measurable value in numerous sectors, new solutions for offset, flexo and digital printing applications.”
