Matthews appointed as Compact agent
Matthews Australasia has been appointed as the Australian agent for Compact Labelling Systems. The company introduced the Compact range at AUSPACK 2015.
The agency expands Matthews’ range of labellers from label print and apply systems to in-line labelling solutions, offering Matthews clients even more options.
“The easy-to-set-up, robust units are designed for low maintenance, with minimal downtime and maximum efficiency, so manufacturers can confidently run their labellers for even the most demanding production lines. The modular designs have a smaller footprint, are simple to use and very cost-effective to operate,” said Mark Dingley, the general manager of Matthews.
Compact’s automatic, in-line labellers suit a variety of applications, including top labelling, wrap labelling, wrap labelling with seam orientation, front and back, a combination of front and back and wrap, wrap labels oriented to flip marks on tubes, and wrap labelling or partially wrap labelling cones.
The portable, semi-automatic models are suitable for slow production lines, low volumes or short runs to label bottles, jars, tubs, cans, tubes, etc.
