On the first day of Labelexpo 2022, Esko announced the installation of a CDI Spark 4260 and a Crystal XPS 4260 at Delhi-based pre-press company, Alpha Flex. Raghav Madan, managing partner, Alpha Flex, said that the latest addition from Esko will help them deliver consistent results to their customers. In addition, the CDI Crystal 4260 XPS reduces training requirements and increases operator efficiency and better throughput.”

Alpha Flex was earlier using UV lamp technology for producing plates but was not happy with the output and consistency. Thus, the company was looking for a technology that could provide a uniform and strong intensity. However, we are now witnessing this with the LED-based technology. It is more consistent and it is a fully flat top technology. We are now able to produce high-quality flexographic plates,” Madan said.

“Alpha Flex is a company that deals with high-quality flexo plates. Along with the CDI Spark 4260, the company invested in Esko’s CDI Crystal XPS 4260. It is for the first time that both systems are being installed together in Delhi-NCR. There are around 12 such machines installed in India so far,” Karan Talwar, sales director, South Asia, Esko, said.
