Elitron enjoys brisk business in cutting kit

Elitron (Hall 13, stand D4) has reported much interest in its automated cutting systems at Drupa.

Key account manager Massimiliano Cruciani told Drupa Report Daily that Elitron had sold a Kombo SD to a Russian packaging company and another to a Moroccan digital printing and packaging company.

He added that Trocart, an Italian packaging company, had also bought a Kombo TAV. Cruciani declined to reveal the value of the deals.

The Kombo SD is an automatic cutting plotter with integrated CAD-CAM system that can cut at up to 100m/min, according to the company.

The Kombo TAV is a cutting plotter with an integrated loading-unloading system that can reach speeds of 106m/min, Elitron said.

Cruciani said both machines employed patented technology that the Italian company had developed in-house.

In another Drupa deal, Cruciani said the Luzhniki Advertising Agency in Russia had ordered a second conveyor belt for the Kombo SD it bought last year, which would increase the cutting width from 2m to 3.5m.
