Compact footprint. Complete workflow. No dies required.
LEO is engineered for the most demanding digital label finishing workflows. Using four independent drag knife plotting heads, it performs complex contour cuts on any label shape without the need for traditional die plates — making it the ideal solution for short to medium runs, frequent job changes, and personalised or variable designs.
In one seamless workflow, LEO laminates, cuts, removes waste matrix, slits and rewinds finished label rolls ready to use straight out of the machine — at up to 9m/min. Whether you’re cutting paper, PET, PP or specialty films, LEO brings precision and flexibility to your production line while enhancing output and reducing costs.
Four cutting heads. Zero dies. Unmatched flexibility for short runs, variable designs and fast job changes.
Four independent plotting heads perform complex contour cuts without any traditional die plates. No tooling costs, no die storage, no minimum quantities — just load a new file and cut.
LEO laminates, cuts, removes waste, slits (up to 8 blades) and rewinds finished rolls in a single seamless pass — rolls come out ready for application with no additional steps.
Cuts paper, PET, PP and specialty films on web widths up to 350mm. Handles both printed and unprinted media, with maximum label length of 500mm and up to 8 slitting lanes.
Instant job changes with no setup time. LEO is purpose-built for converters producing short runs, personalised labels, promotional series or any workflow where designs change frequently.
LEO uses a camera to detect the black mark printed on the media. The Cutting Manager software synchronizes cut position automatically, delivering precise cut-to-print registration on every roll.
Compact footprint (190 x 88 x 140cm) for easy integration into any workspace. Runs on just 1kW single-phase power — full production capability without heavy electrical infrastructure.
LEO is a multi-head plotter knife label cutting system by D.P.R. srl, designed for demanding digital label finishing workflows. It uses four independent drag knife plotting heads to perform complex contour cuts without traditional dies. In a single pass it laminates, cuts, removes waste matrix, slits and rewinds finished label rolls at up to 9m/min.
No. LEO uses four independent drag knife plotting heads to cut labels digitally — no traditional die plates required. This eliminates tooling and die storage costs, enables immediate job changes and makes it ideal for short runs, variable designs and frequent changeovers.
LEO is compatible with paper and films including PET, PP and specialty substrates. Web widths reach up to 350mm (13.78”) with a maximum cutting width of 330mm and a maximum label length of 500mm. It handles both printed and unprinted media rolls.
LEO laminates (laminate liner rewinder included), performs multi-head knife cutting, removes waste matrix, slits (up to 8 blades, minimum 19mm width) and rewinds finished label rolls — all in a single seamless pass. An optional second rewinding shaft is also available.
LEO uses a camera to detect the black mark printed on the media. The LEO Cutting Manager software reads the mark and synchronizes the cut position automatically, ensuring precise registration between print and cut on every roll.
Because LEO requires no physical dies, there are no tooling costs, no minimum order quantities and no setup delays. Operators can switch jobs instantly by loading a new cutting file. This makes LEO the perfect solution for short runs, personalised labels, promotional series and frequent design changes.
LEO35PL: web width up to 350mm, maximum cutting width 330mm, maximum label length 500mm, input roll diameter 500mm, finished roll diameter 300mm, 4-head drag knife cutting technology, pneumatic 76mm core (3”), up to 8 slitting blades, minimum slitting width 19mm, laser registration 4mm x 4mm mark, 100–240V~1kW power.
LEO is backed by D.P.R.’s established service network with remote assistance available for internet-connected customers. Technicians can resolve issues and deliver software updates remotely, ensuring minimal downtime and reliable long-term support.
LEO is equipped with a camera that detects the black mark printed on the media. The LEO Cutting Manager is an innovative and smart cutting management software that allows operators to adjust work speed and cutting settings for precise, consistent results — optimizing production time and minimizing material waste.
Every time a customer wants a new label shape, a new size or a small personalised run, traditional die-based finishing means delays, tooling invoices and minimum quantities you can’t always fill.
LEO eliminates all of that. Load a new file, press start — any shape, any run length, immediate. No dies to order, no storage to manage, no waiting. The result:
Zero tooling cost, Instant job changes, Any label shape imaginable, Profitable short runs, Faster delivery & happier customers
