FUJIFILM Corporation will be using drupa 2016 as the platform to unveil a new, next generation LED-UV inkjet press suitable for flexible packaging applications. This new press is ideally suited for printing on the underside of flexible packaging, and is powered by proprietary new Fujifilm image forming technology called EUCON (Enhanced Under Coating and Nitrogen purging technology). A major challenge for the flexible packaging market in recent years has been to effectively respond to increased customer demand for shorter runs, quicker turnarounds and a more diverse range of products. Fujifilm’s new LED-UV inkjet press is set to offer a real and robust production solution to help address these challenges. The new press takes advantage of the knowledge Fujifilm has gained in commercializing an extensive range of leading inkjet solutions for the graphic arts industry since the early 2000s. Fujifilm’s EUCON technology, at the heart of its new LED-UV inkjet press, is the latest innovation to come from the company’s industry-leading core inkjet expertise. In addition, as this new press uses an LED-UV curing and drying system, the amount of heat applied to the substrate is minimized, reducing power consumption and enabling the press to be used with a wide range of flexible substrates. The ink used in the new LED-UV press offers excellent color reproduction with superior color consistency compared to liquid toner, and takes advantage of Fujifilm’s high performance UV ink technologies developed for wide format applications. Fujifilm’s new UV ink also exhibits superb adhesive strength to film substrates, preventing peeling or cracking of the ink even when the print surface is heated. The new EUCON technology used in the LED-UV inkjet press applies a newly developed and dedicated primer designed to generate superior image quality, even on non-absorbing surfaces. Applying this primer as an undercoat before depositing the CMYKW ink significantly reduces ink bleed and enables vibrant colour reproduction. Using Fujifilm’s proprietary EUCON technology, this new, next generation LED-UV inkjet flexible packaging press is set to offer printers a high performance, high quality, low odor production solution to meet the needs of a growing number of high quality, shorter run applications. And being highly versatile, it can also deliver personalization and variable data printing, making it ideally suited for high mix, short production runs, to fully support the shortest lead times.
