The past year has been bustling for ID Machinery as the European partner for JC, witnessing numerous successful installations of their flexo converting machines across the UK and Europe. JC's comprehensive range, featuring high-quality, cost-effective printer slotters, rotary die-cutters, and flexo folder gluers, has gained traction, especially among customers seeking double-sided printing machines for e-commerce box production.

Among the recent installations are a 2.5 x 1.2 six-color rotary die-cutter at Diamondpak in Pontypool, an offline two-and-one machine in Germany paired with a new Asahi flatbed die-cutter, and a six-color 2.8 x 1.6 rotary die-cutter at Caps Cases. Caps Cases, impressed by the exceptional print quality achieved with their first JC machine, opted for a second major investment to meet the demands of challenging print work, particularly for the e-commerce market.

Other noteworthy installations include a 2.5 x 1.0m three-color flexo folder gluer at Fastpak in Manchester and a 2.5 x 1.0 three-color printer slotter at Northern Corrugated Cases. Trevor Bissett, Managing Director at Caps Cases, emphasizes the exceptional print quality and the suitability of JC for their specific needs. Howard Emery, Owner of Northern Corrugated Cases Group, highlights the ease of setting up and running the new JC, making it the preferred choice for their operators.

John Brasier, Managing Director at ID Machinery, mentions a specially adapted 2.8m flexo folder gluer supplied in Holland for a large group. This machine includes two double slot units and a widened counter ejector to meet the customer's requirements for oversized printed sheets and narrow panel boxes. Additionally, ID Machinery Europe, the sister company in Portugal, supplied two flexo folder gluers. With more installations planned, including one in the UK this month and several orders for the next year, the partnership between ID Machinery, their customers, and JC continues to thrive.
