Atlantic Zeiser at FESPA Digital: industrial digital printing for optimum late-stage customisation
Wednesday 02. March 2011 - Atlantic Zeiser is exhibiting efficient print job changes with non-stop machine availability at FESPA Digital. The GAMMA full-colour UV print module on an end-to-end system solution from the DIGILINE Single Product series, as well as the new compact OMEGA 25 digital printer with an air-cooled LED dryer unit, are the central focus. T
his new development is particularly suited for integration in existing production lines with limited space. All of the modules and system solutions have been developed for the profitable coding, marking and printing of small print runs as well as late-stage customisation of packages, labels, mailshots, cards and individual products. FESPA Digital is being staged in Hamburg from 24 to 27 May 2011.
The Atlantic Zeiser Group, a leading developer and supplier of integration components and end-to-end system solutions for industrial digital printing to code, mark and serialise packaging, mailshots and 3D products, will present examples of its integration modules as well as non-stop system solutions at FESPA Digital in Hall A2 at Stand B72. Visitors will see how print job changes can be executed by a click of the mouse during the running production process. Changes to the layout and print data can be made quickly and simply using the printing softwares intuitive menu navigation.
Atlantic Zeiser will present the DIGILINE Single Product 210 system with the full-colour GAMMA 70P printing module, as well as a transport unit with an integrated OMEGA 25 printing module in combination with an air-cooled dryer unit. The solution is ideally suited to product direct printing in small and very small print runs. The company will print plastic rulers, coated metal boxes and 3D packaging cartons on site to demonstrate the outstanding printing quality on surfaces with low print colour adhesion.
Atlantic Zeiser will highlight the major advantages of industrial digital printing at FESPA Digital – printing variable data at the lastest stage in the production process at the highest quality. Such late-stage customisation increases machine availability during frequent job changes due to small batches.
“We have responded to customer demand for the coding, marking and personalisation of labels, packaging and transaction documents,” explains Ralf Hipp, Vice President Digital Systems. “Our non-stop system solutions illustrate the flexibility and versatility of the modular concept, which offers integration possibilities for a multitude of components. The DIGILINE systems provide higher productivity and flexibility at low operating and consumption costs.
“This solution for just-in-time production means manufacturers of high-quality four-colour print products can take advantage of lower production and warehousing costs.”
Product information
The Atlantic Zeiser DIGILINE Single Product system solutions are integration solutions for packaging and product direct printing. The modular concept enables the integration of different printing modules in customer-specific processes, offering extraordinary versatility and variable printing widths.
The following system solution from the DIGILINE series is being exhibited at FESPA Digital:
DIGILINE Single Product 210 with the GAMMA 70P printing module is the ideal package for extremely versatile applications in industrial digital printing, and helps users increasing their productivity and profitability. The system was developed for a multitude of different product implementations, including 3D. It supports product widths from 10mm to 210mm and reaches a speed of up to 90 m/min. The overall system can be extended for product direct printing using functions for print proofing, PDF/VT extension, counterfeit protection and product retracing.
DIGILINE Single Product 210 was specially developed for the late-stage customisation of packages and individual products, which place particularly high demands on printing quality. The solution meets growing demand for packaging printing with the ability to make latest possible adaptations, and helps users to meet demand for small batch sizes and ever shorter reaction times. It is particularly beneficial for packaging and products with variable data, such as bar codes or content in different languages.
The full-colour UV GAMMA 70P printers integrated in the DIGILINE model series print with UV printing inks specially developed by Atlantic Zeiser, which adhere to a multitude of materials. The adjustable droplet size of the Xaar-1001 printing head ensures pin-sharp texts, barcodes, details and graphics. Customers benefit from fast, inexpensive and reliable printing results. Depending on the requirement profile, a variety of UV drying systems, including the environmentally-friendly SMARTCURE LED UV drying unit for temperature-sensitive products, are available for selection.
As a further solution, Atlantic Zeiser will present a web transport unit for labels with an integrated new OMEGA 25 printing module in combination with an air-cooled LED dryer.
