Durst Launches DIVATM – Digital Varnishing Module for the Rotoworx 330 Finishing System
Friday 16. July 2010 - Durst, a leading manufacturer of industrial strength digital printing equipment for the wide format graphics, photographic and ceramic tile industries, announces the launch of DIVATM - a Digital Varnishing Module for the Rotoworx 330 modular Finishing System.
The DIVATM module, developed and manufactured by Dursts Montreal, Canada based subsidiary, will be showcased at LabelExpo in Chicago on September 14-16, 2010 where the Company will exhibit its growing range of products for the Narrow Web Label Industry – including the Tau 150 Digital UV Inkjet Printing Press.
Dursts Managing Director, Dr. Richard Piock, commented: “DIVATM will provide our customers with the unique ability to produce different gloss levels – high gloss, semi gloss, satin, matte, etc. with one single fluid in one single pass – a first in the industry. In addition, it is completely digital enabling customers to produce special effects, such as textures and even tactile elements, and vary the top-finish from label to label”. He added: “We have a strong commitment to innovation and we continue to accelerate our R&D investments with a major focus on the label market. We believe that the DIVATM module will be a very important source of competitive advantage for our customers”
The 13″ wide DIVATM module is fully integrated with the Rotoworx 330 which already features semi-rotary die-cutting at industry leading speed of up to 160 ft./min., lamination and UV flood coating. Existing Rotoworx 330 machines can be field upgraded with the new module which will commence shipment immediately after the LabelExpo show.
