Austrian converter adds Rotocontrol BL-series for multi-layer label production

Austrian label printer and converter Ulrich Etiketten is broadening is offering in multi-layer label production with a  Rotocontrol BL-series booklet label machine. Leading the sale was Printcon, the recently appointed local Rotocontrol representative in Southern Germany, Austria and Switzerland.

“Impressive to us when initially evaluating the BL-series was its high-quality and solid construction,” says Rainer Ulrich, managing director of Ulrich Etiketten. “As multi-layer labels are a fast-growing market for us, we needed to add another machine to production, and Rotocontrol could provide the modularity required in our next investment.”

Ulrich Etiketten’s fully servo BL-series booklet machine is equipped with a Longford International OS700X triple motor surge feeder, a lamination station, a Wink SmartGap adjustable anvil cylinder and a full-rotary/semi-rotary combination die cutting unit that produces booklet labels without changing magnetic cylinders.

Based in Vienna-Strebersdorf, Ulrich-Etiketten is Austria’s market leader among label printers and has also an outstanding reputation in the entire European market with an export share of around 30%. Their product portfolio includes self-adhesive and special labels on a continuous roll or on a sheet, with three production shifts on 14 modern high-performance UV presses and three digital printing machines for a vast combination of different printing and refining processes.
