:DOTRIX MODULAR
Versatility - Productivity - Modularity
The versatile :Dotrix Modular press, is the most productive UV single pass printing press in the industry.
It is also the only digital press that is able to print with high production capacity onto a wide variety of
substrates ranging from flexible foils, 20 micron over self-adhesives, to folding carton up to 600 micron.
Its unique printing width of 63cm and the absence of repeats means jobs with a common size however with
variable data, run length, colour or language can be combined and run in the same pass. On the other hand
many different applications may have similar media requirements and the SPICE imaging heads allow these
to be grouped and run concurrently.
In addition, its modular construction allows traditional UV flexo printing stations, that can serve as coating
and varnishing alleys or extra colours, to be added to the roll-to-roll basic configuration. Slitting and die
cutting as well as sheeter installations can also be integrated to complete the system and ensure it is fully
tuned to your operation’s needs.
:Dotrix Modular offers a whole new range of options that will quickly have a positive impact on
your bottom line.
