DIGITAL UV VARNISH

Touching the senses with print that stands out in a form never seen before in the world of printing, the press is a digital enhancement press that brings a new, high-quality look and tangible dimension to printed graphic communications. Delivering an unmatched range of enhancement, the press applies PolySENSE™ Polymer onto selected areas of the printed image, allowing for easy single or dual-sided applications. The SENSE experience is produced through the unique digital print enhancement capabilities of the Scodix Ultra Pro:

  • 99 Gloss Units (GU): The highest gloss available for printed materials
  • Polymer height of up to 250 microns (in Braille mode): 10 times higher than a selective polymer
  • Variable density capabilities in single pass
  • Variable levels of thickness and textures, from 20 to 70 microns

 

 

 

DIGITAL LIQUID METAL PRINTING

The technology applies digital Liquid metal effect - a combination of digital UV varnish and metallic foil. The Liquid metal effect has more embossed (liquid) structure compared to the traditional hot stamping.

  • Various colored foils for liquid metal printing – gold, silver, red, blue, hologram and other
  • Possibility for combined application of different foils in a single pass
  • The patent-pending camera system executes enhancement with pinpoint accuracy, scanning every sheet to deliver the polymer to its exact location. This registration method produces output that it is superior to any other in the industry.
