Enhancement as a success factor
Hannapak, North Richmond, Australia Premiere for the ROLAND InlineFoiler Prindor in Australia
Packaging specialist Hannapak continues to lead the way: at the end of 2009, the first ROLAND InlineFoiler Prindor in Australia started up there. The new seven-color ROLAND 700 HiPrint with superb equipment is the catalyst for success in North Rich-mond. Sam Hanna, Sales & Marketing Director of Hannapak, about the decision: “For many years we have been successful with manroland technology. We had the first ROLAND 700, the first double coating module, and now we have the first ROLAND InlineFoiler Prindor. This latest investment with its inline print enhancement not only expands our product portfolio but it also increases our added value offering to our customers.”
Striking enhancement effects, intensive colors and the finest metallic designs make Hannapak’s packaging something extra special in the Australian market. “There is strong competition in the Australian packaging market. We are continually developing innovative solutions to set us apart from our competitors”, is how Sam Hanna explains the reason behind the investment. “We believe it is very important to use the latest technologies and here we are strongly oriented on the needs of our customers and the latest trends. The ROLAND InlineFoiler Prindor fits this concept perfectly, offering us a dramatic new way to implement creative ideas.”
Brilliant prospects. Packaging for food, beverage, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, confectionary markets – Hannapak enhances all of these, quickly and conveniently. Striking metallic and silver effects in economic long runs are no longer a problem. With the new configu-ration, Hannapak can combine enhancement with cold foil, coating and UV in one pass. “The innovative inline foil application shortens the entire production due to the inline one pass process and so orders can be delivered sooner. Our customers love the results and appreciate the high added value.”
Convincing technology. The inline cold foil application makes Hannapak an enhancement pioneer in Australia. With this new process, makeready times are very short because a conventional printing plate is used. Additional costs for expensive dies are eliminated, as are external production steps. The cold foil appli-cation impresses with the finest lines and elements and this has proven its worth in particular with the integration of security features. Sam Hanna: “Our customers enjoy having unique print products and know they cannot be imitated. The precision that the ROLAND InlineFoiler Prindor delivers provides protection against product piracy. It can be used optimally as a brand pro-tection technology.” When the inline foiler process is not being applied, the printing units can be used for normal printing. Another advantage: changeover requires only a few manual operations.
Everything under control. Always. “We have equipped the press with a raft of optional extras”, explains Sam Hanna. “Numerous components increase our product quality and reduce the number of waste sheets.” For instance, the very fast ColorPilot measuring and control system that is the ultimate tool for precise color control during production. It measures a print control strip on every sheet at the high speed of 25 centimeters per second. At Hannapak the ROLAND InlineInspector in connection with the ROLAND InlineSorter enables the production of a clean delivery pile. If the camera detects faults such as scratches, creases, color deviations or substrate defects, the press reacts immediately. It diverts waste sheets with the InlineSorter, especially start up waste that is diverted away from the delivery. With the TelePresence remote maintenance system, manroland makes sure that everything is under control at Hannapak 24/7. The service portal provides online diagnosis, press records, their documentation, and a Maintenance Manager which enables problems and faults at the press to be resolved rapidly.
Automation for greater efficiency. Automation modules from the QuickChange options make Hannapak more efficient and productive. QuickChange Job automates the operating steps re-quired for job changeover; QuickChange Wash reduces inking unit wash-up times. This increases printing capacity by up to 30 percent. QuickChange Coating enables the press to be changed from UV to dispersion coating in only 15 minutes. APL™ (Auto-mated Plate Loading) not only makes plate changing faster but also fully automatic at the press of a button. While the plates are being changed, the printer can attend to preparing the press for
Quality is not a matter of chance
the next job. The manroland AUPASYS automated pallet trans-port system is the world’s leader in materials logistics. Sam Hanna knows this very well: “AUPASYS optimizes our materials flow so we can fully utilize the maximum press speed of 17,000 sheets/hour.”
