Tom Cavalco, Managing Director- Europe, Mark Andy says, “There is a huge demand for digital hybrid and flexo knowledge in the industry, so as the global leader in print Mark Andy has a duty to respond to that need.”
For the first time since its March 2018 launch, Digital Series HD will be demonstrated in Europe.Technicians will showcase via live demonstrations how the machine leverages the practical convenience of digital with the proven capabilities of flexo printing to provide the most profitable total production hybrid solution.
Building on the theme of hybrid, Mark Andys Performance Series P7, fitted with Digital Plus Screen, will also be printing at the forum. The Digital Plus Screen serves as a digital inkjet replacement for rotary screen print and can be added to any flexo machine to create a modular hybrid solution.
Digital One, built specifically for prime labels, will be running various short run jobs throughout the event. During demonstrations, attendees will see how this affordable technology can allow converters to profit on low-volume applications. With a large install base of the machine worldwide, many printers are using the solution as a starting point for their digital label business.
