Battlefield Press Invests In Koenig & Bauer Allpro 110

Burlington, Ontario, Canada based Battlefield Press, a third-generation family-owned firm, announced the recent addition of a Koenig & Bauer Allpro 110 folder gluer. This new versatile folder gluer joins Battlefield’s two Koenig & Bauer die-cutters including the latest Ipress 106 K PRO die-cutter stripper/blanker. “Our goal is to offer an optimized solution for our fold- ing carton customers by operating the most versatile equipment,” says Matt Theoret, Battlefield’s Vice President of Manufacturing. “We’re always seeking ways to differen- tiate ourselves from the competition. Being able to fold and glue at a maximum belt speed of 400 m/min certainly

sets us apart. Our new Allpro 110 machine is providing us with new capabilities and automated production for our broad range of folding carton styles. This investment will significantly contribute to our sales growth in the packag- ing segment.” Known as one of the most versatile folder gluers in the world, the Allpro 110 is touted to exceed production requirements, maximize productivity and profitability, and produce endless carton box design and format possibil- ities. These include straight line, double wall, crash lock and optional four- and six-corner with single finger servo fold for high-speed precision as well as inner partition, Z-fold, conical crash lock and CD boxes. A key feature of the Allpro 110, says Theoret, is its fully automatic processes, and job memory functions to achieve the shortest possible makeready times. Battlefield said this offers the ability to save its progress for repeat orders or similar sized orders and has helped improve its overall production and set-up times. An intuitive, touch- screen-based operating system provides for ease of op- eration. Due to the Allpro’s larger format, Battlefield said it has lots of capacity for all its jobs. “It has been an honor to partner with Battlefield and watch their significant growth,” says Aleks Lajtman, Koenig & Bauer’s sales manager for Canada.
