Anjou Etiquettes, a family-owned label converter located in Montreuil Bellay, France, has purchased the BOBST DIGITAL MASTER 340 to help streamline its label production.

The all-in-one label press is designed to handle print runs ranging from 1,000 to 15,000 linear metres or more and can achieve a full native resolution of 1200dpi x 1200dpi at a speed of 100 metres per minute.

Anjou co-manager Laurent Bossy said: “The BOBST DIGITAL MASTER 340 is the ideal solution for the current challenges. We run the press every day, and I must say I'm impressed by its print quality and speed.”

The new label press can integrate BOBST-designed and supplied modules, including a varnishing unit or a semi-rotary die-cutting module.

In addition, converters can benefit from the DIGITAL MASTER 340 press’ modularity and on-site upgradability advantages.

Anjou will also benefit from BOBST ACCUCHECK, the built-in calibration and quality control module, which manages head calibration, alignment, and registration.

BOBST said that the machine was delivered, installed, and made operational in less than a week.

The service team from BOBST also trained all of Anjou's employees in order to use the machine correctly.

Bossy added: “We chose BOBST for their true essence of partnership and professionalism of their teams. The ramp-up process was seamless, without any pressure. The new press integrated straight into our facilities and processes.”

Earlier this month, BOBST signed an agreement with Asteria Labels & Packaging Group to provide some of its Digital Master all-in-one presses.

Understanding the role and impact of the metaverse in the packaging sector

Many of the vital metaverse technologies are already being used or piloted by packaging companies, who have brought together AI, AR, VR, cloud, the IoT, and other technologies to monitor and maintain key assets remotely. The sector could also use immersive metaverse solutions to optimize packaging design and quality control—testing prototypes in a virtual world before bringing them to market. Another disruptive benefit will involve using underlying blockchain and digital twin technologies to assist in creating more transparent and traceable supply chains.
