The print quality, durability and quick change-over features of the Kase 608 sidewall printer will keep it on of the busiest and highest revenue producing machines in your shop. 

This versatile sidewall decorator reproduces high quality line, halftone or process printing.  With its computer controlled registration and ink color control system, it delivers superb print quality. And with six colors available, the machine provides maximum flexibility in color separation.  Engineered for fast set up and changeover, the 608 can print up to 500 units per minute depending on container size.

  User Friendly

     The Kase 608 is a sidewall printer offering six color printing with an automatic job memory package for quick set up and repeatability.

     The electronic motion control system is interfaced with a computer that controls plate cylinder and print tower adjustments.
