Product Details
The DIGILINE™ system solutions from Atlantic Zeiser bring one-stop shopping to narrow and single product printing operations. Its modular structure enables extreme versatility by allowing integration of various print modules to complete an end-to-end highly customized production process. The DIGILINE series being demonstrated at FESPA includes:
DIGILINE™ Web 280 with a GAMMA™ 70P UV printer is the perfect solution for a wide range of applications in the narrow printing market that supports users in increasing both margins and productivity. This high-speed, single-pass four-color (CMYK plus white) UV solution combines an Atlantic Zeiser controller and data preparation software with Xaar 1001 grayscale print heads to produce stunning quality at a high-resolution of 360 dpi that visually appears to be as much as 1060 dpi. The system handles web widths of 30mm to 280mm and delivers speeds up to 180m/min.
DIGILINE™ Single Product 500 is a brand-new and highly versatile system designed to print on a range of different product form factors, including 3D. It supports product widths from 10mm to 500mm at speeds up to 90 m/min. Optional features include print verification, PDF/VTx, anti-counterfeiting and track & trace for a full end-to-end small batch single product marking system. DIGILINE Single Product 500 is designed to simplify the process of late-stage package customization for packages with high-quality print requirements. Increased demand for late-stage package customization is driven by a number of factors. These include the need to reduce costs by operating with smaller production quantities to minimize storage capacities, and just-in-time supply with short reaction times especially with packages marked with variable data such as barcodes and product ingredient indications in different languages.
The GAMMA™ 70P full-color UV print engines incorporated in the DIGILINE series use special UV inks manufactured by Atlantic Zeiser to optimize printing on a wide range of substrates. Incorporated in web printing systems, it brings offset class printing quality and speed to the narrow printing market. The variable drop capability of the industrial-strength Xaar 1001 printhead consistently produces smooth tone graphics, fine detail, sharp text and barcodes to generate great results quickly, cost-effectively and reliably. A choice of UV curing systems is also available to suit specific applications. These include Atlantic Zeiser's new eco-friendly SMARTCURE LED UV curing system for temperature sensitive products. LED UV curing is especially suited to thin materials that can be damaged by heat used in traditional label-based UV curing.
The GAMMA 70P printer integrated in these system solutions is a premium model well suited for both pinning and wet-on-wet for sharp texts, barcodes, pictures and fine details and logotypes.
3M Alliance for High Quality Substrates
Atlantic Zeiser’s alliance with leading performance label material manufacturer 3M will also be featured at FESPA. This alliance adds a high quality label stock provider that complements the Atlantic Zeiser product range for UV inkjet label printing.
