Ruiting Machinery, a leading manufacturer of flexographic printing solutions, recently partnered with a Saudi Arabian end-user to address their specific production needs. This case study highlights our tailored approach in customizing the RTRY-320 8-color two tower flexo printing machine to integrate die-cutting and slitting functions, while achieving superior precision for fine pattern printing on labels. By leveraging our expertise, we helped the client enhance efficiency, reduce waste, and meet demanding quality standards in the competitive packaging industry.
The client, a Saudi Arabian-based company specializing in label production for various sectors, approached Ruiting Machinery with two key requirements to optimize their printing process:
Integration of Die-Cutting and Slitting: The client needed to add die-cutting and slitting units directly onto the printing machine to streamline production and minimize handling between separate processes.
High-Precision Printing for Fine Patterns: They required the ability to print intricate, small patterns on labels with exceptional clarity, which demanded modifications to the standard printing plate setup.
These requirements were driven by the client's focus on reducing operational costs and improving output quality for high-value applications, such as premium product labels and security printing.
After analyzing the client's needs, our engineering team designed a customized solution based on the RTRY-320 8-color two tower flexo printing machine. The solution included targeted modifications to ensure seamless functionality and precision.
We customized the machine by adding a round-press round die-cutting unit and a slitting unit positioned after the printing groups. This integration allowed the client to perform printing, die-cutting, and slitting in a single pass, significantly reducing production time and material waste. The die-cutting unit was engineered for accuracy and durability, while the slitting unit ensured clean, consistent cuts for various label sizes. This approach aligned with our focus on providing inline flexo printing machines that support efficient label production.
To address the challenge of printing fine patterns, we replaced the standard 1.7mm thick printing plates with 1.14mm thick plates. This reduction in plate thickness enhanced the resolution and detail transfer during printing, enabling the machine to reproduce small patterns with sharpness and consistency. Additionally, we optimized the ink system and registration controls to maintain stability at high speeds, ensuring that the client could achieve high-quality results even for complex designs.
This solution not only met the technical specifications but also incorporated energy-efficient features, such as servo motor drives, which reduced power consumption by up to 20% compared to conventional systems.
The client reported significant improvements in their production line after implementing the customized machine. Key feedback points included:
Increased Productivity: The integrated die-cutting and slitting units reduced processing time by approximately 35%, allowing the client to handle larger orders without additional equipment.
Enhanced Print Quality: The fine pattern printing achieved a success rate of over 98%, with clients praising the vibrancy and accuracy of the labels.
Cost Savings: The reduction in waste and faster setup times led to a 25% decrease in operational costs within the first three months.
The client expressed satisfaction with Ruiting Machinery's responsiveness and the machine's reliability, noting plans for future collaborations. This positive outcome underscores our commitment to delivering tailored machinery solutions that drive customer success.

With a maximum printing width of 320mm, it supports up to 8 colors in a tower configuration, making it ideal for applications requiring complex graphics and efficient production. Key features include:
Servo motor drives for precise registration and reduced maintenance
LED UV drying options for fast curing and energy savings
User-friendly PLC controls for easy operation
Modular design allowing customization for die-cutting, slitting, and other post-processing needs
This machine is part of our broader range of high-precision flexo printing machines, which are engineered to meet diverse industry demands. It is particularly suitable for label manufacturers, packaging companies, and converters looking to enhance their capabilities with reliable, customizable equipment.
A1: The machine's customization options, such as integrated die-cutting and slitting, address the high-demand, cost-sensitive nature of markets like Saudi Arabia. It handles materials commonly used in the region, such as films for labels, with efficiency and precision, supporting local industries in scaling production.
A2: Thinner plates (1.14mm vs. standard 1.7mm) allow for better ink transfer and finer detail reproduction, which is crucial for small patterns. This modification reduces dot gain and enhances image clarity, resulting in sharper prints without sacrificing speed.
A3: Yes, Ruiting Machinery offers extensive customization for various needs, including additional units for coating, laminating, or embossing. Our team works closely with clients to design solutions that match specific requirements, as demonstrated in this case study.
A4: We provide comprehensive training, remote technical support, and readily available spare parts to ensure long-term machine performance. Our after-sales service is designed to minimize downtime and maximize customer satisfaction.
