INX International to present digital solutions at SGIA

"Brand owners are driving direct-to-object digital printing now more than ever. They are looking for flexible solutions so they can print directly on irregular surfaces that, until recently, were either difficult or nearly impossible to print on digitally," said Jim Lambert, vice president and GM – digital division, of INX International Ink Co. "Plastic containers, where a standard label or graphic logo is not suitable, is a perfect example. We have the technology available to do it cost effectively, and we’ve expanded into other areas."

The company's Prodigy line of industrial and packaging ink solutions will also be displayed at the show. The water-based, UV curable and solvent inks are used as inkjet solutions for textiles, wallpaper, flooring and more. Another reason for its increasing popularity is the improved technology. The driving force behind Prodigy and the CP100 UV digital cylindrical printer is the JetINX Printhead Drive and Ink Recirculation system.

"Higher resolution and faster Xaar printhead technology now allows for printing in a single pass. Going digital for this kind of work is favorable compared to conventional offset printing. Digital is a great option for smaller runs, especially when brand owners are looking to create more local or regionalised marketing campaigns. With a more targeted focus and the ability to produce lower cost short runs, digital is a very cost effective way to go," added Lambert.

To be demonstrated at SGIA, the CP100 is an essential part of EVOLVE Advanced Digital Solutions, INX’s custom integration services program. EVOLVE offers the latest technological breakthroughs such as the patent-pending helical printing software package.
