Efficiency and Automation

Newmor has integrated multiple Neolt finishing solutions to optimize efficiency and automate post-print processes. These solutions include the Neolt XY Matic Plus 165, an automated cutting system that replaces manual trimming, ensuring faster and more precise finishes. The efficiency brought by this machine is unparalleled, as it significantly reduces the time required for post-print processes, allowing for a quicker turnaround of high-quality products. By automating this critical stage, Newmor can maintain consistency and accuracy in their final products.

In addition to the Neolt XY Matic Plus 165, the Pneumatic Unwinder Rewinder 1650 and Unwinder Rewinder 1650 systems are designed to smooth the handling of large-format media rolls. These systems automate the unwinding and rewinding processes, enhancing overall efficiency in both printing and finishing stages. Additionally, the Neolt Wallpaper Jumbo XY Matic Plus 165 increases productivity by providing quick, precise, and automated trimming of wallpaper panels from jumbo rolls. These integrated solutions not only reduce handling errors but also boost production volumes and minimize material waste. As a result, Newmor benefits from a more cost-effective and environmentally friendly workflow.

Seamless Integration

The new equipment has been seamlessly integrated into Newmor’s existing production setup, which already features Mimaki printers and a robust digital print workflow. The transition process was facilitated by expert support from CMYUK, ensuring that Newmor could quickly and effectively incorporate the new technology. Tracy Jones commends CMYUK for their exceptional service and support throughout the installation. This smooth integration demonstrates Newmor’s readiness to adopt and leverage cutting-edge technology to stay competitive in the market.
