Midland Regional Printers sales and marketing director Kate Tew said: “We recently installed a Speedmaster XL 106-6+L to operate alongside a similarly specified Speedmaster CD 102 so we needed to invest in the die-cutting area to keep up with the increased throughput.

“The Easymatrix will handle a wide range of work, including toy, pet, beauty and pharmaceutical packaging.”

"This is a machine that will give us a faster mechanical speed and increased overall output."

The 7,700sph Easymatrix machine is capable of handling stocks of 90gsm to 2,000gsm in formats from 400mm x 360mm to 1,060mm x 760mm.

Kate Tew added: “We undertook extensive testing. Managing director Steve Bates, technical director Michael Tew and one operator went to the Heidelberg Packaging Centre at Wiesloch and were very impressed by the demonstration there.”
