The new presses will be globally commercially available from Q1
Building on its sixth generation platform and based on Cheetah 2.0 technology, the Xeikon CX30 and Xeikon CX50 are designed to meet the requirements of label printers operating on middle capacity – between 20,000-40,000sqm
Xeikon says the presses are suitable for use in all labels sectors, but particularly “excel” in the pharmaceutical, food, and wine and spirits label markets.
Both the Xeikon CX30 and Xeikon CX50 can be upgraded from the current speeds of 20m/min to 30m/min with the Xeikon CX300 or CX500, as well as for greater width – 330mm to 520mm –on the same machines.

“A successful and cost-effective investment in a digital production solution works best when it is based on expected, realistic print volumes.

Physical and online demonstrations are now available at the Xeikon Global Innovation Centre in Belgium.
