"Our partnership with LasX provides a broad range of new possibilities in the field of package and print processing," explains Wolfgang Dammer, managing director of Dr. Wirth Grafische Technik. LasX's laser processing systems combine laser cutting, scoring, and perforating processes with instant conversion technology, eliminating the need for costly tools and expensive setup times, and resulting in faster delivery. Their systems can be integrated into both commercial and package printing machines to create a complete digital workflow, Dammer says.
LasX Industries designs and manufactures industrial laser systems for on-demand converting applications with LaserSharp digital converting technology. The company serves the flexible packaging, folding carton, decor printing, textile, and electronics industries. More than 500 of the company's standard and custom converting solutions for laser cutting and other processes have been installed.
