Rotocontrol and Domino have partnered to create a hybrid label converting line featuring a DT-340 digital label finishing machine with an integrated N610i inkjet digital printing engine.
Domino’s N610i as part of the combined hybrid line allows printing in up to seven colours, including opaque white, with a 600dpi native print resolution and operating speeds up to 70m/min. Compliance for food packaging is also offered with the new Domino UV95 ink set.
The Rotocontrol DT-340 is a highly modular machine with multiple die-cutting and printing stations in addition to lamination, cold foiling, hot stamping, label inspection, small roll programmable auto turret winding, and 100% servo control. An open architecture design provides easy operator access to the web and integrated modules, for increased efficiencies in operation/web handling and movement during production.
Jürgen Pflieger, marketing manager for Domino Germany, said, ‘This powerful hybrid configuration takes business to the next level allowing label printers to expand capabilities, make more money, do more for current customers, and gain new customers as well. With virtually unlimited printing and converting options, printers can produce complex labels on a wide range of materials and substrates for maximum flexibility and future-proofed production capabilities.’
The new hybrid line will be featured at Rotocontrol’s new headquarters and demo centre in Siek, Germany, with a grand opening planned for June. The EMT/Rotocontrol business in Green Bay, Wisconsin is also to feature this complete inkjet hybrid finishing press in June at the grand opening of its new demo centre.
Rotocontrol has already worked with Screen to integrate its Truepress Jet L350UV inkjet digital label press into its DT-340 finishing line. Domino works with multiple partners to integrate its N610i inkjet engine into hybrid printing configurations.
