Xeikon has launched an entry-level label printer capable of 516mm-wide printing.

　　The 3050 tops the company's 3000 series entry-level range and prints at 9.6m per minute using a scalable web width from 250mm to more than double that.

　　The press features an LED-array-based rotary printing system that produces 1200dpi resolution print on a range of substrates, including self-adhesive materials, as well as paperboards, paper with weights between 40-350gsm, and transparent and opaque foils.

　　It uses QA-I toner, which meets FDA guidelines on indirect food contact under room temperature and less severe conditions, as well as direct food contact for certain dry foods.

　　Filip Weymans, Xeikon business development manager, said: "All Xeikon presses are designed to be upgraded, which prevents obsolescence. Any of the entry models can be field-upgraded to the higher specifications. A Xeikon 3030, for example, can be upgraded to the faster Xeikon 3300 or the wider models."

　　The 3050 will be available from the beginning of next year.
