MPL, a division of Surrey-based M Partners Limited, the UK distributor for RMGT Mitsubishi B1 sheet-fed offset litho presses, has announced its first carton printing demonstration event, taking place at PCP in Telford on 7 March.

The event will showcase a range of new features using an RMGT / Mitsubishi B1 format press to provide back-to-back printing at speed, via its unique Tandem Printing technology, utilising the all new Simultaneous Package for the fastest make-readies - an ideal configuration for the production of carton and greetings card work.

Speaking on behalf of MPL, Mark Stribley, Joint Managing Director, said: "We are delighted to be presenting this press with a focus on cartons. There are a number of new "first time in Europe" features to be demonstrated that we believe will excite carton producers, and give them ideas on how to make their print plants more productive and efficient.

"Carton work requires a fast, robust, and reliable printing press. This RMGT press offers carton producers a wide range of benefits. The simultaneous automatic plate changing system ensures fast and efficient make-ready along with very cost effective and accurate reverse printing. Mitsubishi technology delivers a low-cost of ownership due to its reliability and an architecture designed to ensure that the press doesn't stop. We are looking forward to demonstrating to carton printers how cost-effective and productive such a machine can be for them."

A series of presentations and demonstrations will include discussions on the features of the press, as well as an introduction to the machines capabilities by PCP managing director Alex Evans.

The event is targeted at packaging printers in the UK and Ireland. Visitors will see:

- Patented Tandem perfecting technology for cost effective reversible printing.
- No unnecessarily complex, high maintenance or expensive perfective system
- Simultaneous programme for shortest make-ready times
- 10mm board saving every sheet
- Reliability track record with no competition
- Guaranteed lowest cost of ownership

This configuration for carton / greeting card printers is NEW in Europe, and is based on the success of the patented technology used by printers around the world.
