Prysmian banks on LEIBINGER’s expertise in inks
Prysmian, a global market leader in energy and telecommunication cables and systems, prints extrusion products at its plant in Neustadt near Coburg, Germany, with solutions from LEIBINGER. Working in close collaboration, the two companies found a special white ink that adheres securely and reliably to a wide range of materials used in Prysmian’s cable production. In the video, the Prysmian project manager explains why the company opted for Leibinger printers and inks.
Wanted:
One ink for many substrate materials
At its factory near Coburg, Prysmian manufactures special cables for industrial applications from materials such as rubber, PVC, ETFE, XLPE and polyurethane. Permanently coding and marking all these materials is a challenge. “With LEIBINGER, we have found an ideal partner, especially as the company has been developing and producing its own inks for several years now,” explains Andreas Bachmann, Senior Manager Process Engineering at Prysmian in Neustadt.
“From LEIBINGER’s ink portfolio we defined an ink that guarantees superb abrasion-resistant adhesion on virtually all different materials, we use in our plant. LEIBINGER printers are also exceptionally reliable and need very little maintenance, especially in the production process.“
