Menasha Packaging orders a Highcon Beam 2C digital die cutting system for corrugated production, to be installed at a North American site. This is the third Highcon system purchased by Menasha in less than half a year, following the purchase and recent installation of two Highcon Beam 2 systems.
Mensaha has also joined the Vulcan Foundation Customer Program, giving them priority for earliest delivery of Highcon’s next generation digital die cutting platform for corrugated production. Menasha is the sixth and final member to join this program.
The Vulcan has a maximum sheet size of 1.4 x 1.7 m and supports boards up to 5 mm, including microflute, B, C, and EB flutes. Like all Highcon systems, Vulcan will combine physical creasing with laser cutting.
”We are impressed with how fast we have started production ramp up. Within three weeks from systems delivery, we have commenced full ramp up on both systems and we are certainly off to a good start,” said president of Menasha Packaging Michael Riegsecker. “This has given us the confidence to move into the next phase and extend digital die cutting to corrugated.”
