Finishing - Digital Enhancement

During a two-day Open House at Agfa Graphics' City of Industry, California, facility, the company will demonstrate how digital printing solutions can help businesses grow. Open House attendees will learn more about the benefits and opportunities offered by the JETvarnish and iFOIL from MGI.

The spring dates for MGI’s JETvarnish 3D and iFOIL 2015 National Demo Tour have been announced.

This week, at DscoopX, Scodix will be demonstrating the Ultra Pro Digital Enhancement Press and presenting a Dscoop Partner Session.

The Pack Experts Committee awarded MGI's iFOIL with the Innovation Award at the 2014 Emballage Packaging Exhibition. This year, 1,500 exhibitors submitted over 208 innovative products, and the top eight entries were given this prestigious award. Working in-line with the JETvarnish 3D, the iFOIL uses a revolutionary 100 percent digital process to create embossed hot foil effects.

At SGIA Expo 14, Agfa Graphics' booth promises to be packed with new technology with demonstrations of its Anapurna M3200i RTR, and more. To illustrate the creativity of its portfolio, Agfa Graphics will debut the Surf N' Crab Application Zone which simulates a seafood bar and surf shop.

Scodix reported another successful show at GRAPH EXPO 14. The company sold one of its Scodix Ultra presses to EarthColor, a digital services provider in Moonachie, NJ. EarthColor serves companies in a variety of industries from telecommunications to real estate. Executive Vice President Cheryl Kahanec remarked, "With innovative printing capabilities like Scodix, we believe we can help our clients reach their goals through enhanced print collateral."

MGI Digital Graphic Technology will launch and preview five new digital solutions during GRAPH EXPO 14 in Chicago. The lineup featured includes the Meteor DP8700 XL+, the DF Pro, the JETvarnish 3D Evolution T Option, the DP1000 XL and the JETvarnish 3DS.

Presentation Folder (PFI) of Orange, CA, has purchased a Scodix Ultra press at GRAPH EXPO 14 in Chicago. The new press positions PFI to be on the forefront of new technology and emerging markets, said PFI President Joel Tardie.

As the first collaborative achievement between MGI and Konica Minolta, the JETvarnish 3DS will be revealed to the United States at GRAPH EXPO 14. It is the newest addition to the JETvarnish Digital Spot UV Coating line and has all the tactile effects and advantages of the original JETvarnish 3D at only half the size.

Taylor Graphics, a California based printing company, has dedicated 100 percent of its efforts on trade printing. Recently, it invested in a JETvarnish 3D digital spot UV coater. “We were excited about the opportunity to offer our customers digital spot UV coating with the ability to do both flat and raised UV,” said Dean Taylor, owner of Taylor Graphics.
