Mark Andy has introduced sMArt Link, a real-time press and production monitoring tool for label and packaging converters.

Offering multi-vendor connectivity and suitable for use with both digital and flexo presses, a feature of note of the system is the ability to provide remote monitoring and real-time troubleshooting from desktop and mobile devices. This means that companies who utilising the system can monitor their production processes from anywhere, at any time. The sMArt Link system also offers data tracking capabilities, including machine performance, material usage and labour efficiency. This allows users to identify bottlenecks and inefficiencies in their production processes and make the necessary adjustments to improve their overall productivity. 

Gretchen Tobol, product manager, flexo presses at Mark Andy, said, ‘We believe sMArt Link will fundamentally change the way the industry monitors performance and optimises press utilisation. We can’t wait to see the impact it will have on the industry.’
