System chosen as STN group's technology partner for decoration and the end-of-line stage

As part of a technological revamping programme for its production processes, the Spanish group STN has adopted System solutions for high-definition digital printing and for the end-of-line department.

The factory in Chilches is already equipped with a number of Creadigit units, which operate at a speed of 50 metres/minute and are capable of printing high-definition (400 dpi) graphic designs on planks (15x90 cm, 30x150 cm and 20x120 cm) and large-size ceramic surfaces (including 750x750 mm, 1000x1000 mm and 600x1200 mm). Creadigit units have also been installed in the group’s other factories over the years.

The plant layout adopted by STN for the end-of-line stage features highly innovative and completely automated solutions including the Multigecko sorting line coupled with the BS08 packaging machine and the Falcon palletiser.
