Fujifilm’s inkjet solutions are designed to be integrated directly into existing industrial equipment and processes. FUJIFILM Integrated Inkjet Solutions will showcase both its new and already robust line of printbar systems that provide high-speed, drop-on-demand print technology for a wide range of applications, including graphics on direct mail, transactional print, paper-based packaging, flooring, commercial printing, folding cartons and corrugated printing.
The solutions will be showcased at drupa, being held May 28 – June 7 in Düsseldorf, Germany. Fujifilm’s new DE1024 Digital Embellishment Printbar System will add digital embellishments such as spot varnish to labels and various types of packaging, including folding carton and flexible packaging. The system integrates directly onto label presses and other narrow-web machines and can add stunning gloss highlights or tactile effects registered precisely to preprint. By integrating this capability in-line on the printing machine, cumbersome coordination with analogue embellishment during finishing operations can be reduced.
At drupa, Fujifilm is also showcasing the FUJIFILM 42X Printbar System, which is used with Kao Collins’ X-BAR® Universal Controller to create a streamlined workflow, for the first time. The FUJIFILM 42X will be available in monochrome and four-colour and in three print widths: 343mm (13.5 inches), 686mm (27 inches) and 1016mm (40 inches). This provides customers with edge-to-edge web coverage to support their growing printing needs. The Kao Collins’ X-BAR ® Universal Controller is easy to use and provides user access to a host of unique features in a single interface. This includes support for both .pdf and. IJPDS image formats, read-and-print functions for logic-driven print commands, automated maintenance routines, and advanced job queue management to help users quickly swap jobs.
FUJIFILM Integrated Inkjet Solutions’ product portfolio includes seven printbar systems that offer 4-colour imprinting, commercial imprinting, label imprinting, embellishment, and custom stand-alone printers. The systems are designed to enhance workflow efficiency by using Fujifilm’s proprietary printhead technologies like the FUJIFILM SAMBA® and DIMATIX StarFire® SG1024 to produce high-quality print at speeds up to 549 metres per minute (1800 feet per minute).
Fujifilm experts at drupa will also discuss Fujifilm’s full product portfolio, including:
