Gourav Roy, managing director, FIG, said, “With our collaboration with DYM, we now can provide advanced solutions for packaging and printing businesses that need significant control of wastes and continuous roll changing without compromising workflow and productivity. This new partnership indicates our fresh commitment to offering our customers diverse and innovative solutions with a focus on sizeable waste control while meeting other evolving needs.”
This partnership with DYM further reinforces FIG’s position as a comprehensive provider of up-to-date machines and technologies, serving different industries for diverse applications.
Jesin Wang, global sales director, DYM Machinery, said, “In our extensive search for a distribution partner for the Indian subcontinent and its neighbouring markets, we found FIG as one of the most reliable names. After all, FIG has a substantial market share.”
She added, “We found that India is one of the fastest-growing markets for the packaging industry globally, especially for the label segment. So, long-run jobs are in demand and there is a need for continuous production of long rolls. However, feeding station has limitations that in turn require frequent roll changing in printing presses that hamper the momentum of production and job continuity, also affecting print quality. In such a scenario, our machines are the most suitably engineered solutions for continuous production and overall wastage control.”
Since DYM’s non-stop roll-changing machines for labels and narrow-web applications are fully automated systems, splicer unwinders and rewinders flawlessly control wastes even while engaging in short-run jobs.
Some of the key machines include automatic butt splicer unwinder; automatic turret rewinder; automatic non-stop lamination/stamping film unwinder; automatic non-stop lamination/stamping film rewinder; heavy duty automatic butt splicer unwinder; heavy duty non-stop rewinder; multi-function non-stop turret rewinder; zero-speed splicer rewinder for RFID; smart version automatic butt splice unwinder; and automatic waste matrix collector.
The patented DYM automatic waste matrix collector is suitably designed for the most difficult light art paper and/or special-shaped waste. It’s a high-precision tension control system for safe waste automation, which reduces waste disposal workload. Compatible with all leading printing presses, DYM non-stop machines greatly help in reducing material waste and energy, which in turn improves printing efficiency. Many DYM customers across the globe report a significant boost of up to 25% in productivity and around 8% reduction in material waste.
The bottom line is that DYM non-stop machines perfectly maintain stable unwinding, rewinding and automatic butt splicing at high speeds for all jobs, irrespective of press-emergency stop, speed slowdown or increase. The new DYM machines are part of FIG’s continuous commitment to providing upgraded solutions to fulfil every bit of the requirement of its customers.
