Unicorr expansion

Unicorr Packaging Group has started up a new Göpfert six-color, Evolution HBL rotary die cutter. Located at Connecticut Container Corp in North Haven, CT, the Göpfert is complete with state-of-the-art features such as auto-registration and its multi-directional bundle breakers maximize the number of items per sheet, increasing machine efficiency.

“For over seventy years, Unicorr has adhered to its tradition of providing the most cutting edge solutions that help our customers achieve success,” Bernie Baszak, a Unicorr sales manager said. “This machine, quite simply, is a terrific example of a radically improved efficiency and quality of flexographic printing.”

Thanks to Göpfert’s camera inspection system, Unicorr not only achieves registration consistency, but the machine also removes defective sheets so every box produced will meet customer’s exacting standards. The machine also provides automatic ink conditioning for better color consistency, print quality, and fewer non-conformances; quick anilox roll changes for better solids and finer details in screen areas; inter-station dryers for improved run speeds; cleaner traps between colors for greater flexibility in art development, and more; enabling Unicorr to offer customers superior print quality at a cost-effective price.

“From plain to litho quality printed die-cuts, the Göpfert really does it all,” Baszak added. “It even features a sheet inverter that enables us to effectively print on both sides, meaning Unicorr can offer customers an ideal solution for products that are sold through e-commerce.”
