BOBST Announces 1000th Sale Of Folder-Gluer Unit

Ajanta Print Arts has taken delivery of the Visionfold 110 A2, the ultimate all-rounder for folding-gluing. Adaptable to converter needs, the folder-gluer brings flexibility and versatility to production lines.

The multi-purpose machine can process an impressive range of box styles, regardless of size, substrate and run speed. The folder-gluer also maximises uptime thanks to short make-readies and ease of set-up, as well as delivering the same flawless quality each time, thanks to a highly stable and precise folding process.

Bobst sold its 1000th folder-gluer from its production site in India. Mumbai-based folding carton specialist, Ajanta Print Arts, invested in a range of Bobst converting equipment for both die-cutting and folder-gluing in recent years, including a Novacut 106 ER die-cutter in 2020 and now the Visionfold 110 A2.
