News from ROTOCONTROL

The collaboration will focus on education in sustainable production and establish qualification measures through on-site and remote training.

On stand 331 will be an end-to-end hybrid solution with the ROTOCONTROL DT 2.0 label finishing machine and Domino’s N610i inkjet label press.

For almost four decades, many of South Africa’s most popular and reputable wine and FMCG producers have turned to Rotolabel to create the proverbial billboard for their brand – the label.

Darling-based winery Groote Post has used Rotolabel for more than 20 years. Communication manager Peter Pentz says its relationship with Rotolabel is built on a solid foundation of trust and integrity.

Using top-notch printing systems such as ROTOCONTROL and MPS flexographic machines – all supplied by ROTOCON – Rotolabel’s benefits for brand owners and wine producers have provided them with greater design and production flexibility and fewer limits on label shapes and sizes.

JUST as the two generations before them, brothers Aslam and Ahmed Monia ascribe JMB Labels’ success to forming long-standing partnerships with customers who value a label converter that consistently provides a personal touch and high-quality products in quick delivery times.

‘Our first investment was in an MPS EC 410 multi-substrate press, which included a film package for unsupported films so that we could print on PVC and PET film for the shrink label market,’ Aslam reports. ‘It was accompanied by a ROTOCONTROL RSC 440 slitter rewinder with a film package kit and servo drive technology to support improved slitting accuracy and faster job turnaround times for self-adhesive and shrink sleeve labels.’

It was followed by a second investment in 2015 in the first MPS EB 370 flexo press in the African market and a ROTOCONTROL RSC 560 slitter rewinder with a film package kit. ‘The RSC 560 has performed so well that the production team hasn’t needed to use the slip differential function when running filmic material,’ Aslam reveals. ‘Additionally, the small servicing issues have been dealt with very efficiently by ROTOCON’s technicians and remotely by the German-based team when required.’

In Zusammenarbeit mit Domino und EyeC veranstaltet ROTOCONTROL vom 24. bis 25. November 2021 ein Open House in ihrem Werk in Siek, Deutschland. Bei der Veranstaltung wird u.a. eine integrierte End-to-End-Hybridlösung mit der ROTOCONTROL DT 2.0-Etikettenveredelungsmaschine, der N610i Etikettendruckmaschine von Domino und dem Inline-Inspektionssystem EyeC ProofRunner Web live vorgeführt.

Albyco is now representing EMT’s Chameleon lineup of roll-to-roll and roll-to-sheet finishing systems.

The first-ever ECOLINE RDF 330 digital printed label converting and finishing machine installed in South Africa has been providing consistent and reliable results for Stellenbosch-based Label Mountain since 2016.

‘Our doors are always open to customers and the walk-in mini-sized label factory concept has allowed us to build good relationships with them. It’s important for us to create a welcoming atmosphere while also providing solutions that meet their evolving labelling needs,’ comments director Dirk Harris.

Dirk describes the ECOLINE RDF 330 – which offers one printing station (for printing and/or varnishing) with UV curing, cold foiling, semi-rotary die-cutting and lamination capabilities – as the most important machine on the floor.

In 2017, ROTOCON extended its reach beyond South African shores to Australia with the sale of an ECOLINE finishing machine to ex-Capetonian Mike Ellis, who needed to upgrade an old machine for his burgeoning self-adhesive label converting business.

Mike recalls being particularly impressed with the RSI 330 slitting, inspection and rewinding system’s output when he saw a few machines in action at a Cape Town label printer during a visit with ROTOCON’S founder, Michael Aengenvoort.

‘I placed an order as soon as I returned to Sydney and Luminar hasn’t looked back since Pascal Aengenvoort personally oversaw the installation and training of two operators with ease and professionalism,’ Mike enthuses. ‘The RSI 330 has served us very well over the past four years, we haven’t experienced any downtime or required any technical support. Its reliability has been legendary.’

For 21 years, Sullwald Printing Solutions (formerly Coastal Labels) has been a trusted supplier of innovative labels to the South African wine industry. Now, thanks to new printing technology and its long-standing partnership with ROTOCON, the company is entering a new era of prosperity.

The ECOLINE line of finishing equipment has continuously been developed over the past four years to meet the technology investment needs of smaller labelling operations and start-up ventures, which must carefully balance the highest possible specifications with competitive pricing.

ROTOCONTROL has appointed Albyco as its new distribution partner for the Netherlands, Belgium, and Luxembourg. Under the agreement, Albyco will locally represent the range of ROTOCONTROL equipment for label finishing, booklet production, and hybrid printing including the ECOLINE suite of cost-effective finishing machines.
