On the first day of Gallus Innovation Days, almost 300 visitors came to Gallus headquarters in St. Gallen, Switzerland to see the latest innovations from the Swiss manufacturer. This year, Gallus, a member of the Heidelberg Group, has an even larger exhibition area during the event, which took place from June 26-28.
Gallus print experts explained how digitization will change the label industry, and how Gallus is going to support its customers to manage this industrial paradigm shift.
The highlight of Gallus Innovation Days is the premiere of Gallus Smartfire, an entry-level digital label press. With the Gallus Smartfire, Gallus is presenting a starter model for digital narrow web label printing. The Swiss full-range supplier is expanding its product portfolio with another digital printing press, which is positioned as an entry-level model.
“With the Gallus Smartfire, we are also focusing on new target groups who are looking for a smart entry into digital label printing,” said Michael Ring, head of Digital Solutions at Gallus. “The Memjet technology allows us to offer an inkjet printing press that produces labels with a quality of 1600 x 1600 dpi while still keeping the investment costs at a low level.”
The Gallus Smartfire prints with the Memjet printheads with water-based inks, which means that these labels are eco-friendly and leave a minimal ecological footprint. The Smartfire uses an ordinary power outlet, needs no exhaust equipment, is compact and emits no VOC (volatile organic compounds).
