Spot UV Coating |
|
Printing Technology | MGI's inkjet UV
Drop-on-Demand (DoD) technology Piezo heads mounted on a solid plate covering the entire sheet width Single pass printing. Flexible & scalable printing architecture |
Coating Thicknesses | Depending on your file and the paper used, the coating thickness can vary:
- from 3 microns (µm) same as a traditional flat spot UV coating - up to 200µm for 3D raised effects and a tactile finish. |
Production Speed | Up to 3, 000 B2 sheet size per hour (flat spot UV coating)
First page out in 16 sec. (no preheating or system latency) |
Registration | Left & right side lay guides on either side of the sheet. Overall registration of +/- 200 microns.
New revolutionary registration process using the latest MGI AIS scanner to fully automate the make-ready and a perfect sheet to sheet registration |
Formats | Minimum:
21x30 cm / 8 x 11.8” Maximum:
|
Paper Thickness | From 135 to 600 gsm
with motorized height-adjustment print heads |
Substrates | Spot Coating and Hot Foiling can be applied directly on offset printouts with or without lamination, with or without aqueous/UV coatings. Also compatible with plastic, PVC, Polypropylene and other coated materials.
NEW - 3D spot UV coat directly onto digital prints (ie. MGI Meteor) with no lamination or coating required. |
Printing Area | 51.5x73.5 cm (standard)
51.5x104.5 cm (extended) |
Coating and Special Inks | New UV coatings specially formulated - with or without 3D raised effects |
Yields | The JETvarnish 3D now comes standard with 2 coating tanks and 2 coating circuits allowing a quick changeover between coatings. The first tank has a high capacity volume (18 liters / 4.7 US gal.). The second one is a recyclable 6 liters / 1.59 US gallon bag.
“On-the-fly” tank changeover possible during production without any interruption. Capacity of ink circuit during operation - approximately 1 liter / 0.26 US gal. |
Feeder | High capacity feeder able to handle a paper pile up to 60cm / 23.6” high
Approximately 4, 000 sheets at 135 gsm |
Paper Path | 100% flat paper path.
Vacuum feed system. Air feed system. Automatic double sheet detection. |
Stacker | High capacity stacker able to accomodate stacks up to 60cm/23.6” high
Approximately 4, 000 sheets at 135 gsm. Now includes a blowing system to cool down production. |
Front End System | New large touch screen (68cm/27")
New fluid & intuitive interface Dedicated PC (with mouse/keyboard)
|
Built-in Application Software | - Comprehensive job queue management
- Predictive printing cost calculator (coating consumption) - Dedicated image editor to do local and fast image editing prior to production |
In-Line UV Dryer | “On-the-fly” drying & curing via integrated UV lamps
Spot Coated sheets can be immediately finished or handled, no additional drying time required |
Dry Air | An on-site air system is necessary for the new sheet stacker blower (6 bar/87 PSI, 300 à 400 liters/min - 80/105 Gal/min.) |
Maintenance and Technical Support | Daily maintenance completed in less than 10 minutes
Majority of procedures are automated Remote troubleshooting & support via included web camera (high speed internet connection required) |
Operator Panel | Integrated user-friendly touch-screen LCD. |
Option(s) | -iFOIL option: a hot foil stamping module that connects inline with the JETvarnish 3D
-VDP option : Variable Data Printing system using a camera and preprinted barcodes |
