At PACK EXPO 2023 Las Vegas Epson will be showcasing print and automation solutions. Epson offers a range of robotic and color label solutions engineered for speed and adaptability and designed to boost efficiency, reduce costs and elevate overall production processes. Epson’s offerings will be displayed from Sept. 11-13 at the Las Vegas Convention Center in the South Lower Hall in booth #SL-6664.
“More businesses are seeing the need to increase packaging and labeling speed,” said Mark Middendorf, product manager, Label Printers, Epson America, Inc. “Both Epson’s robotics and color labeling solutions can be used to help businesses add efficiency and cost savings to operations with innovative, flexible systems.
