Leading print finishing equipment manufacturer A B Graphic has expanded its range of modules for its Digicon Series 3, with the launch of the DigiJet branded digital embellishment module.
Based on existing JetFx technology, DigiJet allows online or offline fully digital embellishment with multiple processes in one pass, including spot varnishing, digital foiling and tactile screen on any size of print run.
Its main features include two inkjet heads with UV pinning and UV curing, automated cold foil throw-off, a shuttle system for zero waste and stop-start at job changeover, chill rollers for sensitive materials, pre-press software, and food compliant fluids.
Available in single bar or dual bar configurations, DigiJet technology allows the quantity of varnish to be easily adjusted to a height of 225 microns, thereby varying the required finish. Jobs can be automatically changed on the fly and the DigiJet module can be integrated with workflow and MIS options as preferred.
The DigiJet module has already been installed on a number of Digicon Series 3 machines internationally, as well as being retrofitted to existing machines with notable success.
Matt Burton, global sales director at A B Graphic, said, ‘DigiJet is a revolutionary module for the digital market. With technology improving all the time, digital embellishment is where the future is –perfect for short runs, no tooling costs, the ability to change jobs quickly, variable data, personalisation and dramatically reduced lead times.
‘DigiJet will undoubtedly be a game-changer for many of our customers.’
