Packaging Solutions

Edale is refreshing its range of label and folding carton presses, to further align its offering with Canon’s portfolio.

New names for the existing range will now come into play: the Edale LabelLine FL4e and LabelLine FL4p for labels, and CartonLine FL6p and CartonLine FL7p for folding cartons.

The company will also introduce clear, customer friendly performance tiers:

Essential (e) – engineered for reliable, day to day production and commercial agility.

Precision (p) – designed for premium applications, higher volumes and advanced automation.

Lachlan Buirds, managing director, said: ‘This is about clarity and capability. With LabelLine FL4e and FL4p, and CartonLine FL6pand FL7p, customers can quickly identify the press that fits their reality today; our Essential range for dependable day to day production, or Precision, for when they are scaling into premium applications, higher volumes and added automation.

‘We have aligned the look and feel of the machines with those of Canon, and we have simplified the story so buyers can navigate requirements with confidence. And under the skin, it is the same Edale engineering with single pass efficiency, HD flexo quality and intelligent automation, that helps converters do more with less.’

The LabelLine FL4e is a compact, operator friendly, 430 mm narrow web label press for everyday production, ideal for short to medium runs with fast changeovers, low waste, and a low learning curve. While the LabelLine FL4p is a high capability 430 to 570 mm label press with advanced registration control, optional in line embellishment, and modular upgrades for premium labels at speed.

The CartonLine FL6p is a 600 to 650 mm single pass folding carton press that integrates print, varnish, embellishment, die cutting and stripping in line to reduce work in progress, cut lead times and free up floor space. And the CartonLine FL7p is a 760 to 1000 mm platform for larger format or higher volume carton work, combining single pass efficiency with premium embellishment compatibility and modular growth.

Across the range, Edale’s hallmark technologies remain. In addition, CartonLine configurations can also be specified to run both carton and label work where businesses want a single line to support both applications.
