GAMA International will participate in the K show – Hall 4 Stand D12

In evidenza

Milan, 22nd August 2022 – The next K show, which will take place from 19th to 26th October 2022 in Düsseldorf, Germany, will be an opportunity for GAMA International to meet converters from all over the world and to present its new updated GAMA viscometers’ line. «Climate change made us reflect on the increased need for cool inks – says Sante Conselvan, Managing Director at GAMA International. – We have therefore improved the heat exchangers of our viscometers, which are now able to cool or heat the inks faster».

GAMA products are all made in Italy and they boast quality certifications, such as IQNET, CSQ, ATEX and the IECEx international certificate. They include viscometers for flexo and rotogravure printing, ink treatment and print control technologies.

The CCSone – Consumption Control System has been recently launched on the market as part of the GAMA ink treatment line. It is an innovative and indispensable product that can detect ink consumption in real time through an interface physically connected to the ink container, generating information about ink consumption and the ink level during the printing process.

CCSone is suitable for both flexo and rotogravure printing processes and its operating principle is based on the control and measurement of the pressure inside the container or basin. In addition to ink, applications include cold seal, glow, varnish lacquer and adhesive materials.

«This product has aroused considerable interest, since, thanks to the data it generates on the consumption of individual inks, it can be inserted into the corporate data flow, managed with an ERP system, with the advantage of keeping the entire packaging production process under control», explains Dario Calvalcoli, Marketing Manager at GAMA International. Besides calculating the total ink consumption per product, the system also provides consumption data per printed metre: this piece of information is helpful to calculate the ink needed for a similar job as regards colours, but with a different print run.

Sleeve Storage System: a storage solution for sleeves, anilox and plates

GAMA International also offers a renewed solution for the storage of sleeves, anilox and plates to flexo printers and converters: the Sleeve Storage System. The intralogistic solution consists of an automatic or manual Sleeve Storage System that minimizes the manual operations of the sleeve handling staff, thanks to an automatism for the collection/deposit of the sleeves.

«GAMA International will welcome all visitors at its stand D12 at Hall 4: our mission is to be close to converters and to listen to their needs, for whom we always work to always implement our products», concludes Elisa Conselvan, Communications Manager at GAMA International.

Milan, December 1, 2016 – The recent participation in Labelexpo Americas was an opportunity for Grafikontrol to verify its position in the US market. Having already operated in the market for 35 years through OEMs and agents, in 2015 Grafikontrol opened an office in the US to handle sales and technical support. Sales have focused primarily in the converting sector and are increasing: today, the US is the second biggest market for Grafikontrol, accounting for around 20% of its turnover.

Grafikontrol Sales Director and Partner Paolo De Grandis identifies the success factors which have led to a 10% year-on-year increase over the past two years: “Following the launch of the new TQC-360° product line, we concentrated on ensuring the continuous training of our technical support personnel, particularly by using a remote connection system and setting up a warehouse with a permanent stock of spare parts to ensure prompt service in case of emergency. This was a crucial factor that was highly appreciated by customers. The direct commercial presence was also an important factor as it conveyed the company’s dynamism and guaranteed its involvement in many industry events, including FTA and GAA (Gravure Association of the Americas), of which Grafikontrol is a member.”

Monza, 10th May 2016 – The major Italian manufacturers of Flexo printing machines have chosen, once again, to work with Digital Flex, company specialised in flexographic prepress, for the realisation of the printing plates being used at drupa.
