Two years ago, Codimag and the plate specialist
Verico Technology set the trend that has changed waterless label printing for
good. Working with Verico Technology, the innovative press manufacturer has
succeeded in making chemistry-free, waterless plates the new market standard,
and the entire waterless industry is now following this suit.
With the launch of the Zahara NWL, Verico
Technology built on 30 years of experience in waterless offset to combine all
of its advantages with sustainability. In no time at all, Zahara plates have
transformed the viability of narrow web label printing for the better by making
its prepress genuinely digital.
Many customers have already replaced their
processors with Verico’s new cost effective and compact washers. Expensive
chemicals and dyes are no longer required for Zahara plates. All that the
washers use is pure water, and even this is re-circulated so that the
consumption of tens of thousands of litres of water is a thing of the past for
Zahara users.
The Zahara NWL was specifically developed to
deliver print quality and precision for label printing. It is totally
chemistry-free and generates a latent image without the need for dyes.
Stability over long runs, even when using abrasive substrates, deep colour
densities, high contrast in UV printing and process stability are just some of
the advantages of this trendsetter from Verico Technology.
On top of this, the waterless professionals can
draw on their years of experience to offer users advice and service that is
known for its reliability.
Come and watch live print demonstrations of Verico
Technology Zahara NWL plates on Codimag presses in Hall 11 on Stand C10. This
combination of press and plate technology represents one of the most efficient
developments in the age of waterless offset.
The VIVA 340 evolution is the industrial
alternative to industrial printing and offers greater flexibility and
profitability for short run solutions in combination with Aniflo keyless ink
train technology and waterless offset printing. The VIVA 420 Aniflo is one of
the most productive presses on the market and, being modular, can accommodate
the full range of inline finishing processes to enhance productivity and
generate greater value.
The equipment for the digital workflow associated
with the Codimag VIVA press is also on show at Label-Expo, and consists of a
fully automatic HD ProW Thermal CtP-System, as well as the compact EcoKleen
Washer. The CtP system delivers finished plates at the press of a button whilst
the washer reduces water consumption to zero thanks to an innovative filtration
system.
