K-1 Packaging Group—a City of Industry, CA provider of custom packaging solutions—has taken delivery of a new Landa S10 Nanographic Printing Press. The press is currently being installed.
The S10 will produce short to medium run static & variable jobs, consisting primarily of 5,000 sheets-and-under jobs that make up much of K-1’s production schedule. The work includes folding cartons, countertop displays, labels and litholam corrugated boxes. The S10 runs at the rated speed of 6,500 large format (B1 / 41 in.) SPH.
It was the S10’s speed—producing back-to-back, short to medium run jobs in comparison to conventional equipment production times (including makeready)—the most important factor in the K-1 purchase. Landa showed the K1 team that 8-makereadies on a conventional press were achieved in only 1-hour/10 minutes on the S10: making the Landa 3X faster than any other digital solution, and 6X faster than a digital press closest to the 41” format.
