At Labelexpo Europe, EFI (is showing the first fully inline LED inkjet digital printing system available with laser cutting and finishing for lean label production. The production line features the 13-inch (330-mm) wide EFI Jetrion 4950LX LED narrow web press with a white ink module.
To complement its high-productivity press, EFI is demonstrating a new Enterprise Packaging Productivity Suite custom configured to address the needs of three segments: label, flexible packaging and folding carton converting, as well as tighter integration with Esko’s Automation Engine.
The automated Jetrion 4950LX press with integrated finishing has 720x720 dots per inch resolution. Plus, EFI is demonstrating a faster, 164-feet (50-meter) per minute speed, a higher level of throughput that can make digital inkjet label converting an even more useful option as a replacement for flexographic printing.
“The Jetrion 4950LX LED press on display is the culmination of years of advanced research in narrow-web production and LED inkjet technology. With nearly 200 Jetrion presses installed worldwide, EFI is the market leader in narrow-web inkjet technology and has helped customers worldwide achieve remarkable growth in digital label printing,” said Ken Hanulec, VP of marketing, EFI Inkjet Solutions.
The press’s LED platform offers a “cool cure” advantage, giving converters the opportunity to print on a broader range of substrates that cannot withstand the heat required with other curing or drying methods. Cool cure printing with the Jetrion 4950LX press also is a greener, more economical choice because it requires significantly less energy, and the press’s LED lamps are more consistent and last significantly longer than traditional UV lamps.
Also featured on the EFI stand is the EFI H1625 LED printer, a 65-inch wide hybrid roll/flatbed printer suitable for high-quality label proofing and packaging prototyping applications.
Label converters looking for ways to improve their management and production workflow can view EFI’s new Enterprise Packaging Productivity Suite. Each of EFI’s Productivity Suites is modular, allowing users to configure the Suite to meet their specific needs.
