At Labelexpo Americas, EFI revealed a fully inline LED inkjet digital printing system with flexo varnish, lamination, inline laser cutting and slitting for lean label production.
The latest version of the EFI Radius ERP system offers new scheduling, CRM and order entry tools for streamlined, automated converting workflows. These are said to offer unparalleled plant optimisation opportunities that are critical in today's short run, digital environment.
The production line features the 13 inch wide EFI Jetrion 4950LX LED narrow web press now available with a new white ink module and integrated finishing. It offers a superior, 720x720dpi resolution and a faster, 200ft/min speed, and "a higher level of throughput that can make digital inkjet label converting an even more useful option as a replacement for flexographic printing".
The press's LED platform offers a 'cool cure' advantage, giving converters the opportunity to print on a broader range of substrates, including flexible packaging films that cannot withstand the heat required with other curing or drying methods. "
