Mark Andy, Inc. has launched Digital Plus Variable (DPV), an inkjet module designed to simply and cost-effectively adds single-colour variable data to any new or existing digital, flexo, or finishing machine without compromising speed.
With advanced printhead technology and a robust design, Mark Andy says DPV is the ideal variable data solution for a broad range of industrial and commercial printing applications, such as labels, forms, direct mail, tickets, gaming, promotions, tags, and pharmaceutical packaging.
“Digital Plus Variable is flexible, durable, and operator-friendly. The system utilises the latest 30 & 40 kHz print module for high-speed data transfer and high-quality inkjet printheads that deliver 600 dpi cross-web print resolution and 300 to 600 dpi in process direction, with speeds up to 500 fpm,” says Scott Warhover, VP engineering, Mark Andy.
The monochrome digital print bar offers adjustable drop size and shaving to ensure premier barcode readability, while internal heaters minimise the impact of external temperature changes to guarantee superior printing. An integrated head cap and automated service mode reduce printhead maintenance, increasing pressroom efficiency.
“The DPV is a straightforward press upgrade that is a benefit to any pressroom because it is an inexpensive low-risk solution with high return. Total cost of production is nearly 90% less than the standard cartridge-based offerings in the market, and the system is also highly dependable, allowing converters to integrate fast variable data to their production for a fraction of the cost,” concludes Warhover.
Available for immediate order, DPV joins Mark Andy’s digital portfolio, including the new Digital Series iQ, Digital Pro and Digital Series HD.
