large-scale production, has been launched. GABLER as a co-founder of tilting technology - still a unique selling point in the moulding station today. A masterpiece of technology in the cup production business, the M-Line is launched on the market.
 D600, the machine that was a novelty in the field of lidding machines for more than a decade. Whether transparent, coloured or pre-printed film, everything was possible. Unbeaten in terms of output and in the processing of pre-printed film during this time. A machine that can handle all product types, whether cups, trays or lids was established. The compact machine for beginners or highly flexible customers. Still unbeatable today in terms of flexibility and fast mould changes.
