MPS and Domino are set to launch
a wider version of their successful hybrid MPS EF Symjet press. Coming in a width of 17” / 430
mm, the new Domino N617i unit is fully integrated in the established MPS EFA
flexo platform.
At Labelexpo Europe 2019, the
new press combination will be shown for the first time. Louise Adcock, Global
Commercial Product Manager at Domino Digital Printing Solutions said: “The
Domino N617i is based on our proven N6-series ink jet product range; but has
been designed exclusively for MPS. We are delighted that MPS is showcasing this
solution at Labelexpo. The first N617i based MPS EF Symjet deliveries are being
scheduled from January 2020.”
Visitors to Labelexpo can enjoy
live demonstrations of the press in the MPS booth 11C20. Hans Poortinga,
Manager of the MPS Technology & Expertise Centre commented: “The press
will be equipped with five flexo stations, digital cold foil, a Kurz cold foil
unit for single images and optical effects, lamination and die-cutting. We will
show the most unique and impressive label applications. MPS’ goal is to push
the limits of flexo and ink jet printing and converting”.
Domino and MPS first introduced
their partnership, launching the first hybrid EF Symjet press at Labelexpo
Europe 2015. Philip Easton, Director at Domino Digital Printing Solutions adds
“From almost the first meeting we have developed an excellent working
relationship with MPS, they have high standards but at the same time have been
so responsive and easy to work with. There are now many MPS EF Symjet global
installations benefiting from the most proven and best supported ink jet solution
from a globally recognised digital ink jet company combined with a world class
conventional press.”
Atze Bosma, CEO of MPS:
“Productivity is one of our focus processes that extends Beyond the Machine.
With the new 17” width, we are offering our customers higher productivity, more
flexibility and the possibility to open new markets and even more options for
applications.”
The MPS EF Symjet press is now
available in 340 mm/ 13” and 430 mm / 17” widths, and can be equipped with
multiple flexo units, lamination and embellishing units, die-cutting and many
more converting options. Labelexpo visitors are invited to see the new, wider
hybrid EF Symjet press live at MPS booth 11C20.
