EFI has reported the installation of an EFI Nozomi C18000 single-pass, ultra-high-speed LED inkjet corrugated packaging press at UK-based Durham Box, a corrugated packaging manufacturer.
Scheduled for installation soon, the 1.8m wide Nozomi press operates at speeds up to 75 linear metres per minute and offers the critical capabilities Durham Box can use to give its customers more application possibilities.
The press also delivers significant time savings in production, outstanding image quality and the ability to create personalised prints. Moreover, it provides the company the capability to increase productivity on short- and medium-run jobs.
‘Image quality is a very important factor, perhaps the most important in fact,’ said Morris. ‘We regularly get asked to print jobs that are too challenging for our own flexo capabilities and as a consequence we need to manipulate the artwork, which is time consuming and ultimately leads to a simplified image – and that can be frustrating to the customer.
‘The wide range of print finishes is a great feature from the Nozomi,’ he added, ‘as it has the ability to produce print that has similar qualities to flexo – only better – with high gloss photo-quality print.’
