SPGPrints showcases new equipment for printing at ITMA

With the introduction of two new screen types, the display of the latest rotary printing machine PegasusEvo and the latest BestLen engraving technology, SPGPrints underlined its statement to the market that the rotary printing market is still growing. In the Screen Experience Center the visitor could review print samples made with the new OrtaScreen, a revolutionary screen based on the flatbed screen structure. Also the newest past saving screen RandomEco, that also helps to avoid Moiré, was present in the Experience Center, according to a press release by SPGPrints.

Several times per day SPGPrints presented a 15-minute explanation on the much requested topic ‘when do you print rotary and when do you choose digital printing?’. Burning topics like ‘what is the break even point?’ or ‘what is the price per linear meter’ were addressed. The presentation was concluded by a live demonstration of the SPGPrints Pike single pass digital printing line, now capable to achieve speeds up to 60 linear meters per minute.

During the whole show live demonstrations of the new Javelin2, showed the audience unrivalled print quality, while running faster and more reliable than any other multiple pass printer in the show. The company’s proprietary Archer technology, used in both digital printers Javelin2 and Pike, is the first ink jet technology specifically designed for digital textile printing and has proven over the last years that it puts an end to the headache of print heads commonly known in the market.

SPGPrints is producing digital textile inks since the early 90’s and meanwhile has an extensive range of inks for all major printheads used in today’s digital printing equipment. The runnability of the SPGPrints inks is widely recognised in the world and has made SPGPrints one of the largest suppliers of inks to single pass printers. In the Ink Experience Center customers could take a virtual reality tour through the ink production in Boxmeer, and learn about the unique technology and production processes behind these excellent inks.

During the show SPGPrints signed contracts for several rotary printing machines, engraving systems, digital printers, ink contracts and screens agreements. This has made the ITMA 2019 one of the most successful events in the recent history of SPGPrints, and it confirmed that SPGPrints delivers ‘All you need in printing’.

As the inventor of rotary screen technology in 1963 and the initiator of digital textile printing in 1991, SPGPrints has been playing a leading role in textile printing for over 55 years now. (PC)
