Epson expects a very good response for its newly launched SurePress L-6534VW UV digital inkjet label press, Eisuke Morishita, senior manager, Epson India said during Labelexpo India 2024.
“We have already installed two machines in India in the last three or four months. By using this press, customers will be able to print at a very fast speed and very astonishing print quality. This press addresses the issue of sustainability with low power consumption, is easy to use, and easy to maintain. We expect more installations in coming future. India is one of the most important regions. Not only in growth, it’s an epicentre for global economic growth,” Morishita said.
Vasudevan LK, general manager – LFP/IE/DTF at Epson India, said he expects more than two dozen installations of SurePress L-6534VW UV digital inkjet label press in India.
“This is one of the best machines for label printing. So that gives a lot of credibility to Epson and its technology, how beautiful this product is and how beautiful the print quality is all about. A lot of customers are quite positive about this. In the next two to three years, we expect to have at least minimum 15 to 20 units installed in India. That is what we are aiming at,” Vasudevan said.
Vasudevan said Epson India will set up a demo centre in Delhi to showcase the SurePress L-6534VW UV digital inkjet label press. “It will be operational from mid-December, which will help the customers to touch and feel the technology,” he said.
