Chroma, a full-service printer located in Theale, near Reading, has taken a significant step into the flatbed printing market with the installation of a Yotta Fr2513-R5 printer and Sinajet DK2513 cutter. Both machines were supplied by SOS (Service Offset Supplies).

Eager to always provide its customers with top-notch quality solutions that will keep them ahead of the competition, Magenta-Vision is delighted to announce that the company is expanding its portfolio of high speed, high quality TECKWIN printers. Two flatbed printers and one roll-to-roll with expanded colour gamut now complete the range.

Innovative and forward-thinking company Digipress has revolutionized its business after an investment in an expanded technology P5 350 hybrid platform from Durst, manufacturer of innovative digital printing systems and software solutions. The all-in-one hybrid solution for flexible roll and board printing has been a godsend, according to partner Steve Jackson who says they are now ‘making money while they sleep’ thanks to unattended overnight printing.

Devon-based Creative Solutions has made significant investment in printing and finishing equipment from CMYUK.

The swissQprint Impala 3 has been installed at the company’s Alton production facility – which has recently been extended by over 30,000 square feet – as part of a project to meet rising customer demand and to open doors to new markets.

After a turbulent year, it seems strange to be thinking about ‘after the pandemic’, but with millions of vaccinations underway, the light at the end of the tunnel is visible. As we turn the corner, choosing technology partners that understand how to proactively respond to changing market needs and support the evolving requirements of print businesses and end customers will be vital. The printers in Mimaki’s ‘100 series’ portfolio, which consists of the high quality, high productivity entry level roll-to-roll inkjet printers – the UJV100-160 UV and the JV100-160 solvent, and the high performance textile printer, the TS100-1600, are a perfect reflection of the way technology requirements are adapting in line with the industry as we look to the future. To demonstrate this, we have identified three post-pandemic technology touchpoints that will help print businesses target success amid uncertainty.

With 167 staff across three integrated production sites in the UK and an annual turnover of £20m, imageData is one of the country's leading providers of print services for a wide range of market sectors. Whether it is point of sale, direct marketing, printed building wraps, marketing collateral or any print requirements, imageData works closely with its clients, which include many well-known blue chip brands, to develop bespoke automated solutions to exceed customer expectations. Helping to drive the business forward in 2021 is their latest investment, the Onset X3 HS Dual Flex from Fujifilm.

Digital inkjet roll-to-roll UV LED printers from Electronics For Imaging, Inc. continue to deliver innovations for superwide-format graphics production printing, and they have now achieved an important certification for the quality and durability of prints used for décor applications. EFI™ roll-to-roll UV LED printers have earned a Type II certification for wallcoverings based on The Wallcovering Association W-101 and ASTM F793 standards.

Mimaki, a leading manufacturer of inkjet printers and cutting systems, unveils Innovation Days (2-4 June 2021), a collaborative virtual event, bringing together Mimaki’s regional offices to encourage and nurture innovation in the printing sector. The programme of events, led by experts from Mimaki Japan, USA and Europe, will focus on addressing the needs of customers and prospects in their local markets, as well as demands across sectors (sign graphics, industrial, textile and 3D) to overcome today’s challenges and drive success within the industry. Attendees will also have the opportunity to further explore the newest additions to Mimaki’s product portfolio, the JFX550, JFX600 and SUJV-160, through live demonstrations following the launch of these solutions at virtual.drupa.

Following the success of Fujifilm and Inca Digital's Onset X HS range, the ultra-high productivity large format series now comes with automated technology to assist with long run production. It also slashes job changeover times and reduces the need for manual intervention between runs.

Italian print business grows its visual communication department, investing in Fujifilm's Acuity LED 1600R, Acuity LED 3200R and Acuity Select.

The recent investment in a new EFI™ VUTEk® h5 UV LED hybrid flatbed/roll-to-roll printer from Electronics For Imaging, Inc. will help Montreal-based Media Graph expand its client base, “opening up the possibility to offer clients a whole new range of products and solutions in retail, hospitality, and office space,” according to Media Graph President David Sellam.

FUJIFILM North America Corporation, Graphic Systems Division is pleased to announce the installation of the wide format flatbed press at Ahearn Signs, a Belleville, Michigan printer focused primarily on signage for car washes, convenience stores, and gas stations. This second Acuity press installation now provides a wider variety of printed signage that has increased business with existing customers in addition to adding new customers because of enhanced capabilities.

UK retail and shopper marketing agency upgrades from Onset X1 to the automated Onset X1 HS solution to further increase already impressive production speeds.

Electronics For Imaging, Inc. is highlighting the ways print professionals can grow their businesses with more productivity, greater efficiency and new applications as it highlights advanced digital solutions at the virtual.drupa online tradeshow. The April 20-23 event will feature an insightful EFI™ session on adjacent industrial growth opportunities for print professionals leveraging advanced, integrated technologies, presented by Chief Technology Officer Doug Edwards. The virtual.drupa event also features the unveiling of a new, entry-level wide-format production solution, the EFI Pro 30h UV LED hybrid flatbed/roll-to-roll printer.

Mimaki has announced the release of two new LED-UV large-format flatbed inkjet printers, the JFX600-2513 and the JFX550-2513. Available after summer 2021, the new models are engineered for high speeds and high productivity, and offer print service providers a broader range of applications thanks to a wider range of ink types and increased media flexibility.

Belgium based Agfa-Gevaert Group has invested in new UK premises to house both its Radiology Solutions Service Centre and a new Inkjet Solutions showroom. The site is scheduled to open in March 2021.

The global COVID-19 pandemic has led many businesses to change focus and find new work in unlikely places. One such story is that of German Fujifilm customer Copy Service, in Moenchengladbach. In spring 2020, the pandemic brought a temporary halt to all professional football across Europe, including the German Bundesliga. The season resumed after several weeks, but with one key ingredient missing - the fans.

Azonprinter is launching a new revolutionary Desktop Series of printers –EDGE, SONIQ and PRONTO, with a compact footprint and suitable for any type of printing business (small and medium).

Upper Marlboro, Md.-based printing business Linemark is expanding its display graphics offerings, delivering greater substrate selection and product choices to its customers using an EFI™ Pro 30f UV LED flatbed printer from Electronics For Imaging, Inc. With its high-quality output, opaque white ink and versatile “cool cure” UV LED curing technology, the new flatbed printer gives the Washington, D.C.-metro area print business the ability to produce new applications, reduce cycle time and replace revenue losses created by the pandemic.

swissQprint now offers neon colours for UV printing. These inks are suitable for all swissQprint LED models and are available right now.
