UK-based Reflex Litho Plus have installed a new Koenig & Bauer Duran OMEGA Allpro 70 folder-gluer in order to enhance the efficiency of its finishing process. Operating as part of the Reflex Group of companies and based in Trafford Park in Manchester, Reflex Litho Plus specialises in the manufacture of cartons, sleeves, boxes and other materials for the food and associated industries.
To support its extensive finishing process, Reflex Litho Plus has taken on the Allpro 70 to enhance its firepower and continue to deliver quality products to its wide range of customers.
“We needed to purchase the new gluer due to the fact that our existing machine was no longer up to the job in terms of volumes, speed, efficiency and was requiring extensive maintenance in order to keep it running,” said Mike Webb, Site and Production Manager, Reflex Litho Plus. “The benefits include faster turnaround times and the ability to match our press size better with larger cartons. Also it will enable us to retain in-house work that we had previously outsourced to other companies.”
