Vasai-based Umrao Automation has introduced its first four-colour roll-to-roll screen printing machine, which the company said, is designed and manufactured to suit label and sticker printing, especially for bulk production. The latest offering follows the company’s successful introduction of 1-, 2- and 3-colour roll-to-roll screen printing machines for label printing.

According to Umrao’s CEO Rajendra Rajage, the roll-to-roll screen printing machine for the label application is an import substitute option for labellers in India. “About ten years ago, after evaluation of the market demand and upon our customers’ requests, we first designed and manufactured a two-colour roll-to-roll screen printing machine. Next, we designed a single-colour and a three-colour machine.  We have sold over 50 such machines in India.” Tumbler Print Uv

Some of the label printers that use our Umrao’s roll-to-roll screen printing machines are Update Prints and GSP Labels, among others.

Umrao’s roll-to-roll machines can be used to print labels on various roll media such as PVC, soft plastic circuits, heat transfer paper, soft metal substrate, polyester, and vinyl, on substrate thickness from 50 microns to 300 gsm. Some of the applications that Umrao’s machines produce are cycle stickers, automotive decals, and heat transfer label applications.

The main advantage of Umrao’s roll-to-roll screen printing machine, Rajage said, is that the users can print spot UV and other value addition on the flexo printed jobs or undertake flexo printing after screen printing on Umrao’s roll to roll screen-printer. “This inter-print process flexibility, coupled with the application flexibility (one machine to screen print on different media) and speed of the machine (1000 impressions per hour) are the winning factors of our roll-to-roll screen printing machine.”

Umrao Automation offers 12 models of its roll-to-roll machines with a max print size of 15x20 inches. These include: 1-colour with UV, with IR and with UV/IR combo; 2-colour with UV, with IR and with UV/IR combo; 3-colour with UV, with IR and with UV/IR combo; and 4-colour with UV, with IR and with UV/IR combo. The UV curing machine is fitted with 300 watt/inch lamp and air-cooling system.
