INX International Ink Co. has announced the sale of a Komori NW210 inkjet digital narrow web press and an HMJ-200 small batch ink dispenser, both at this year's Labelexpo in Chicago. The Komori press was sold on the opening day of the show.
“Labelexpo continues to produce the response we anticipate and sometimes more,” said Rick Clendenning, President and CEO of INX International Ink Co. “We expected attention would be at a high level for our products, and having a buyer approach us for the NW210 press was an added bonus. We also enjoyed a terrific response to the new ink dispenser and the various flexo and gravure ink formulations that give label printers lots of options to choose from.”
The NW210’s first buyer is Diversified Labeling Solutions in Itasca, Illinois and will be installed by the end of the year. Owner Bob Hakman indicated that when the company purchased the NW140 press from INX last year, they were planning to upgrade when the next generation press reached the market.
“The NW140 has been a very reliable performer for us, but the need for a wider and faster version was apparent to us in order to remain competitive in the marketplace and better service our customers. When we learned the NW210 would be released at this time, we got in line.”
According to INX, the new and wider Komori NW210 inkjet UV digital narrow web press was a hit with label converters, direct mail and packaging printers who are weighing the transition to digital printing. Powered by JetINX, the press produces UV-LED cure single pass output at up to 80 feet per minute and prints on any label stock at a maximum printing width of 210mm. Komori serves as the sole national dealer in the U.S.
The HMJ-200 small batch ink dispenser from HMJtech Dispensing Solutions is designed for small-to-medium sized batches with single point dispense. It requires only 90 seconds to deliver four ingredients in a one-gallon jug. Available for water-based or UV curable ink, the HMJ-200 is configurable up to 14 base ingredients from kits, drums, totes or bulk and priced under $35,000.
