Job management software for flexo label printers, especially the little guys!
Who is Label Shop Live for?
Did you just acquire a new or used label press and are suddenly overwhelmed with all the new information and documentation it takes just to run a job? Aniloxes, ink, cylinders, plates, materials, quantities; and what in the world is an anilox, anyway?
Or maybe you’ve had a press for a while and are tired of all the messy, hand-filled forms that you receive from the pressroom. Stained and hastily filled-out production reports that you cross your fingers and hope are accurate, ink formulas that never seem to result in accurate color matches, wasting roll stock and ink every time the job is set up. Wrinkled and inconsistent quality checklists, and so on.
Does it bother you that you’re never quite sure whether a label is printed under the same conditions every time, and you fear that varying press setup conditions may be why jobs take so long to set up and color match?
What about the little things that you keep running out of, or order too much of, like splicing tape, end seals, plate wipes, die washers, etc.?
And have you had difficulty figuring out what it would cost you to produce 10,000 or 50,000 labels of a product you haven’t made yet? You make a rough estimate and hope you’re right when the job finally runs.
And you find that the current software programs available for managing all this information are disruptive to implement, cumbersome to use, and too expensive for your small pressroom.
If you’re still reading this, there’s a great chance you can relate to the above. I feel comfortable saying this because in a 40+ year career in flexo, including over 20 as a consultant and technical forum moderator, I have helped dozens of small pressrooms make sense of the mess, whether using paper, software, or both.
As a consultant to the flexo printing industry, I’ve seen scenarios like the above, over and over, and I felt compelled to develop a solution for “the little guy”: Label Shop Live.
Label Shop Live is designed for the small label pressroom that would benefit from a powerful solution, without the disruption, learning curve, and costs associated with more comprehensive programs. It’s designed to be implemented and learned quickly, with the least pain possible.
But don’t let its simplicity fool you. Label Shop Live focuses on the things needed to prepare and set up jobs, leaving nothing to chance, and reports accurate, complete, and useful cost and production data, all with the least possible effort by the operator.
If you face challenges like the ones I mention here, let's discuss how Label Shop Live can relieve your headaches and pain. Pain relief may be a quick phone call away!
