“Particularly noteworthy was ROTOCON’s willingness to build a unique solution for us [CHROME RSI 440 label slitter/rewinder] including guiding web on the left-hand side of the machine, which we had not seen before from other manufacturers. The machine also had to be integrated into our ERP system, allowing the knives to automatically adjust to the web widths of the orders. With this investment, we have taken an important step forward in the automation of our production process. We experienced exceptional integrated teamwork from all ROTOCON teams in South Africa, China, and Europe.”

“We’ve been dealing with ROTOCON for many years. I’ve watched Pascal and Patrick Aengenvoort work their way up through the ranks, becoming fully accredited engineers and working professionals without ever getting any handouts. That says a lot about the kind of man Michael is and how he raised his children. He’s a man of integrity. He believes in upholding real family values, in life and in business. And it shows.”

“There is a 24-hour call line between me and Patrick, Rotocon’s Johannesburg-based director. Some of our best conversations take place after hours and we’ve developed such a great understanding that I even bought our third MPS press via WhatsApp in 2019 after Patrick shared the deal details and price of the EFS 430 model from LabelExpo Europe in Brussels. This press is supported by a complementary ECOLINE RSI 430 slitting, inspection and rewinding system from ROTOCON to ensure top-quality finishing requirements.”

“Since we invested in the SCREEN Truepress two years ago, it has created many market opportunities for us,’ comments CEO Marius Sullwald. He adds that the digital press is a cost-effective option for smaller runs. ‘The SCREEN Truepress and the ECOLINE RDF 330 work so beautifully together that it made sense to invest in another finishing machine in 2021 to keep up with the demand.”

“We’ve always used the standard mandrels fitted to our presses, but SmartGap is very effective and is easy to install, use and maintain compared to other systems, some of which are quite complex. Since I joined the company in August 2018, I have concentrated on improving the output of our current equipment while motivating new technology investments. The SmartGap investments are particularly exciting.”

“Reluctance is not a word associated with ROTOCON. In fact, they’re always striving to get involved and stuck in. Whether it’s Michael, Pascal or Patrick, the Aengenvoort’s are the kind of people who go out of their way to assist. They’ll sit down with us to discuss issues, go into the factory, talk with operators, measure and look at a problem from every angle before finding an appropriate solution. ROTOCON has always come to the party, and they’ve always been there for us, just one of the reasons why this is a business relationship that has withstood the test of time.”
