Germany-based Manroland Web Systems has launched what it claims is a "a one-stop solution" for the packaging printing industry.

For applications ranging from board to foil printing, an optimised arrangement of presses with offset, flexo, and gravure printing units in hybrid configuration is available.

The PECOM-X drive, operation, and workflow management system is the basis for combining various components from Manroland Web Systems into a one-system solution.

The first press of the new generation has been sold with Offset and Gravure printing units for the flexible packaging industry.

The most modern of the company's pre-setting, regulating and control systems enable waste reduction of double digit figures.

An integral component of the one-stop solution is the globally available Life-Time-Service package, which is strongly linked with the automation of the press.
