New York Label installs Edale’s FL5 die cutter

New York Label & Box Works is the first U.S. company to invest in an Edale FL5, flexographic, single-pass, carton press and inline flatbed die cutter.

Incorporated in 1878, New York Label & Box Works have facilities in New York and New Jersey, and provide packaging services.

The Edale press comes with 1500-mm in diameter unwind, allowing for longer runs. It can handle substrates up to 700-micron board. It also includes Edale’s (AiiR) Autonomous inking, impression plus EZ register technology, which “guarantees precision throughout the print run, improves quality and reduces waste.”

Darren Pickford, sales director, Edale, said, “We have known New York Label & Box since 2014 and were delighted when they joined us last year for a virtual demonstration to see the FL5 press in production of cartons. They were very impressed with the quality of the print, single-pass efficiency, and cost benefits.”

“Our investment will allow us to present to our clients new embellishment possibilities, a lower cost of manufacturing due to greater operational efficiency and speed of response,” said Steven Haedrich, president, New York Label & Box Works.
