Print UV 13

 

MELBOURNE, FLA

(February 28, 2013) – MGI Digital Graphic Technology, the leading manufacturer of multi-substrate digital printing and finishing solutions, is sponsoring the 2013
Print UV conference in conjunction with Advanced Print Technologies, their distribution partner for the northeastern US, including Metro New York City and New Jersey.

Print UV, held at the Encore Las Vegas March 3-6, attracts the leaders in the global UV printing industry, including numerous commercial, packaging and specialty
printers, top UV suppliers and key industry participants. Over two hundred participants are expected at this years’ event to discuss UV market trends,
exchange techniques, ideas and information, and uncover new processes and strategies to grow their businesses.

MGI’s JETvarnish 3D inkjet spot UV coater is an ideal offline complement for UV printers for short runs, prototyping/proofing or other applications, offering traditional flat spot UV coating and new 3D raised effects together for the first time in one production unit.

The award-winning JETvarnish 3D features flat spot UV coating at speeds up to 3,000 20 x 29″ sheets per hour and new 3D raised effects up to 100 microns in thickness.  Variation of thickness within the same design is possible through file management, allowing texture creation. These beautiful tactile effects allow end users to differentiate their brands and add a new dimension of visual appeal to a wide range of projects, such as book covers, brochures, business cards, pocket folders, postcards, packaging, photo books, greeting cards, announcements and more.  The JETvarnish 3D’s 100% digital operation requires no plates, screens or expensive makeready, perfect for runs from one to thousands or more.

Other key features include sheet sizes up to 20×42”, full variable data capabilities, a camera system that ensures precise registration to printed pages and spot UV coating directly onto
most digital or offset prints with no lamination required.

Giselle de la Moriniere, Marketing & Communications Manager for MGI USA, will participate in the panel discussion “Spot UV and 3D Coating Effects – Inline vs. Offline,” held on Tuesday, March 5at 11:00am. For more information, please visit http://www.mgiusa.com.
