Phenix Labels of Olathe has become the first company in North America to install the OMET iFlex, an innovative press that uses lasers to Print labels.
Phenix is specializes in Packaging design and works with its customers to select the materials, finishing, printing processes, coatings, and customized solutions that will meet their needs and work within their budget.
The iFlex is a breakthrough in web printing because it uses lasers in its flexography process. Flexography, often called simply ‘flexo’, is a type of printing that uses a flexible relief plate. It is, in effect, a cutting-edge version of the traditional letterpress that can Print on almost any material, including paper, cellophane, metallic films, and plastic. It is used to Print on the nonporous materials used to package food, and can easily Print large swatches of solid color.
Thus far, reviews of the press by its users have been outstanding, as it features lower maintenance than other presses and has a reduced setup time for jobs. It also has an iLight feature available. This is a system that uses laser pointers to align the flexible die for the Print job.
The development of the iFlex, and its use by Phenix Labels, is an example of the way in which the printing industry uses technology to create innovative new products that can enhance users' businesses.Get a Free Quote for Packaging Get a Free Quote for Print
