Rondo-Pak, a provider of quality folding cartons and printed components for the pharmaceutical, medical device and consumer industries, enhanced its capabilities and expanded capacity at its primary facility in Camden, NJ with the addition of a new Heidelberg Speedmaster XL 106 10 Color Perfector. A $5.5-million-dollar investment, the new press will increase the company’s offset printing capacity by more than 20 percent.
This latest upgrade allows Rondo-Pak to better meet the demands of its customers during a rapid growth period, which has been accelerated by a need for COVID-19 related products including vaccines, adjuvants, test kits, and treatment medications.
The Heidelberg 10 Color Offset Press will be operational in 4Q21 and is capable of production speeds of 18,000 sheets per hour in straight printing or perfecting mode, as well as continuous process optimization through artificial intelligence. Parallel makeready processes increase productivity in packaging, commercial, and label printing. The 100% inline vision inspection system assures the highest degree of consistency and accuracy.
“This investment, along with our recent and forthcoming equipment additions and upgrades, affirms our commitment to continuous improvement and will enable us to better provide innovative, precise and cost-effective packaging solutions for our customers,” said Bob Reilley, President and COO of Rondo-Pak. “We look forward to meeting with many prospective clients at Pack Expo to share more about our new press and the many other recent investments we have made, as well as several we have planned in the near future.”
