UK-based label printing solutions supplier AB Graphic International has unveiled the new AUTO SLIT digital knife box for simplifying labeling and packaging processes.
The new labeling system can be used to automate slitting and set-up for labels and packaging production using a HMI touch screen interface.
The new labeling equipment is claimed to be for AB Graphic's Digicon, Omega and Vectra label converting lines and is said to offer high quality and precision cutting.
AB Graphic International spokesperson Andrew Noble said AUTO SLIT saves on both time and material waste and permits set-up of the slitting knives through touch screen.
"The operator simply enters the job parameters into the system and the knives are automatically positioned in seconds," Noble added.
The new label cutting system is available as an option with machine purchase and also as a retrofit for current converting lines supplied by the company.
