Xeikon will demonstrates digital
presses in three configurations on the nearby Flint Group stand (5C28) and will
also introduce the recently launched Transform advisory tool. The Label
Discovery Package is an entry-level system consisting of a Xeikon 3030 digital
press and Dcoat digital converting line with varnish, semi-rotary die-cutting,
and rewind.
The Xeikon CX500 (pictured) is
aimed at high-end food and wine label printing. The company’s QB-toner has been
designed specifically for food labels and takes upcoming regulations into
account. Visitors can see the press in action at the Flexible Packaging Arena.
The third press, the Xeikon
PX3000, showcases Xeikon’s Panther UV inkjet technology, which is ideally
suited for the health and beauty markets and high-performance durable printing.
The newly launched Haptic printing module enables users to produce tactile
print effects. Xeikon’s Panther DuraCure technology combines both LED and HG
(mercury) curing in one pass, which creates an ink layer that is highly resistant
to chemicals, temperature, sunlight, and mechanical abrasion. The Xeikon
aXelerate will also be demonstrated at the show.
