New Delhi, May 13, 2024: Marking a significant milestone, Kolkata-based gravure cylinder manufacturer Rotomaxx India has strategically invested in two intaGlios® rotogravure cylinder engraving machines, back-to-back. The two feature-rich flagship intaGlios® machines, installed one after another at Rotomaxx India within nine months, were supplied and installed by Monotech Systems, a leading machine manufacturer and one-stop solution provider for the printing and packaging industry globally.
Rotomaxx India—a new subsidiary of Ganga Cylinder Process—is new in the market, emerged ambitiously to serve packaging companies with best-in-class gravure cylinders. Mr Saugata Banerjee, along with two partners, Mr Biswajit Majumdar and Mr Deepak Kumar Shaw, is taking care of the subsidiary. “My father Shri Basudeb Banerjee, who has 24 years of experience in the industry, established Ganga Cylinder Process. Following in his footsteps, we unveiled Rotomaxx India as a new vertical to manufacture gravure cylinders,” tells Mr Saugata.
He adds, “It has been barely nine months since we first opened Rotomaxx India with the first intaGlios® to supply gravure cylinders to our clients who are a host of packaging companies dotted across the length and breadth of West Bengal and adjoining Odisha, Assam, Bihar, Jharkhand and Sikkim.” He further adds, “When demands from our clients immeasurably flooded, we eventually needed to cope with it, so was why we brought home the second intaGlios® machine from Monotech Systems.”
A heavy-duty gravure cylinder manufacturing machine with German head, intaGlios® is a brand of Monotech Systems. They engrave on helical or polar line method at the maximum speed of R70: 0.32sqm/hr. It engraves cylinder up to 1400mm length (and optionally up to 3200mm). “intaGlios® machine has a lot of advantageous features and technological advancements. After all, it’s our milestone transition to automatic (digital) gravure cylinder making process,” remarks Mr Saugata, adding, “The two new intaGlios® machines at our facility now propel us to the next level of high-quality gravure cylinder engraving.”
Mr Saugata continues, “Robustness in design and highly user friendly, intaGlios® gravure cylinder engraver offers high-quality strokes that in turn improve the appearance of fine texts and graphics. Even the machines’ workflow software is perfect to sharpen the lettering.
Two intaGlios® machines trigger Rotomaxx India to fulfil every bit of demands from its clients. “Now that we are running two intaGlios® gravure cylinder manufacturing machines, our capacity is upgraded to production of around 60-70 cylinders per day in two shifts. With this capacity, we would never let our clients down when it comes to urgent delivery, any time, at any given circumstance. They (clients) are now entitled to get exactly what they want, on time, whether in West Bengal or anywhere else,” tells Mr Saugata.
Jai Singh, Product Manager for intaGlios®, expresses gratitude for the overwhelming response received for the product, both domestically and internationally, including markets like Nepal. The repeat orders serve as a testament to the product’s performance. Under the Monotech Systems brand, customers trust in receiving reliable after-sales services, a critical factor in their investment decision. Delighted to announce that we’ve surpassed 30 installations with several orders pending. Our aim is to achieve a total installation of intaGlios®, machines ranging from 40 to 45 by the end of this fiscal year.
Operating in an 8,000sqft. production facility, backed by a staff of 30 well-experienced professionals, Rotomaxx India is graced by strong manpower and machine portfolio comprising the two intaGlios®. “If the truth be told, we are grateful to Monotech Systems for intaGlios® and their all-time unconditional support,” concludes Mr Saugata.
