Primera Technology Europe is presenting its new CX1000e Color Label Printer and FX1000e Matrix Removal System at Emballage Packaging Exhibition. Emballage is a key event of the packaging industry in the EMEA region.

The event is being held from November 19-22, 2012 at Paris Nord Villepinte in Paris, France. Primera is located in hall 4, stand 4 DE 106.

CX1000e Color Label Printer, the latest addition to Primera’s range of industrial label printers, is designed for in-house production of professional-quality product labels. It is ideal for producing short- to medium-run jobs of pre-die cut label material in various sizes. With 2400 dpi print resolution and print speed of 5 meters per minute, CX1000e delivers professional full-color print quality along with high-speed production.

CX1000e prints onto many different laser-qualified label materials including pressure-sensitive plain papers, white and clear polyesters and more. A wide range of approved matte, semi-gloss, high-gloss and specialty food and beverage label materials are available. Primera has also qualified an all-new selection of eco-friendly substrates that are made of up to 100% post-consumer waste.

Printed labels are waterproof, highly scratch, smudge and tear-resistant. Ink is also highly UV-resistant so printed labels can be used indoors or outside. Many of the most popular sizes are in-stock and ready for immediate shipment. Custom sizes are also readily available.

Andreas Hoffmann, managing director of Primera Technology Europe, explained the benefits of an in-house label printing system like the CX1000e: “Producing your own labels on CX1000e not only saves time and is far more convenient, but it almost always saves money, too.”

The second innovation Primera is showcasing for the first time at Emballage is the new FX1000e Matrix Removal System, the perfect accessory to the CX1000e Color Label Printer. In a single automated process the FX1000e removes the waste label matrix while slitting and rewinding the printed labels to finished rolls. The FX1000e is available either with a single or double rewinder mandril.
