Sticwell’s investment in the combo of Rhyguan Smart inspection platform and Luster LabelMaster-F inspection system is a vital move reflecting the company’s strong focus on maintaining precision, consistency, and reliability in production of diverse premium labels for different finished products and applications. The company serves a long list of customers based in the electronics, healthcare, pathology, and other segments.
Founded in 2014, Sticwell Technologies keeps expanding its manufacturing operation steadily from Rudrapur in Uttrakhand to multiple facilities across Noida (Delhi-NCR) in Uttar Pradesh.
Transitioned from a small setup at the onset to a full-scale premium label manufacturer today, the company is an expert in niche and technically demanding applications.
Divyansh Gupta and Ashish Gupta of Sticwell Technologies say their decision of choosing the new Rhyguan Smart machine has been strongly driven by their need for a highly-automated total solution for label converting, slitting, rewinding, and perfect defect inspection.
Built with a stable base, web path, and integrated servo-driven tension control systems, Rhyguan Smart inspection platform eliminates vibration and prevents stretching while processing labels at high speeds up to 300-m/min. Combined with the Rhyguan, the Luster LabelMaster-F maintains 100% inspection accuracy, barcode verification, variable data checking, and defect detection in various critical applications.
Divyansh and Ashish state that the Luster system from FIG seamlessly handles sensitive applications where barcode duplications or printing inconsistencies can create operational challenges for end-users. They add, “It provides high-speed and high-accuracy inspection performance with advanced PrintingPlus 6.0 software architecture.”
Luster LabelMaster-F identifies defects such as dirty spots, ink stains, missing print, miss-registration, scratches, excessive glue, image blur, and varnishing defects, while also supporting OCR, barcode, QR code, and variable data inspection. It inspects at the speeds up to 200-m/min with strong detection capability for extremely small and 3D defects, such as bubbles, scratches, coating errors, and glue marks.
In addition to the combo of Rhyguan Smart and Luster LabelMaster-F, Sticwell Technologies runs a raft of label presses and other converting systems including flexographic and die-cutting machines, while continuously exploring the latest technologies to improve automation and production efficiency.
Gourav Roy, managing director, Flexo Image Graphics (FIG), states that amid the ongoing increase in market demands for variable data printing, serialisation, authentication, and quality consistency, it has been noticed that advanced inspection systems become mandatory for progressive label converters. True!
In the line of Roy’s word, the installation of the combo of Rhyguan Smart and Luster LabelMaster-F has empowered Sticwell Technologies to position itself as a quality-focused label manufacturer capable of handling sophisticated and critical applications with greater accuracy, efficiency, and reliability.
