LECCO, Italy—The new OMET XJet powered by Durst, the hybrid printing machine, will appear for the first time in the Americas in September. It will be demonstrated together with an OMET iFlex at the Labelexpo Americas 2018 at the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center in Rosemont, IL at OMET booth 3123.
The new OMET XJet powered by Durst, unveiled last February, is a hybrid printing machine that integrates inline the Durst Tau RSC digital inkjet group with the OMET X6’s flexo printing, finishing and converting units, providing flexibility, a wide range of final application and cost savings. This machine is meant to assure reliability and excellent results with all kinds of run lengths, with the advantage of getting to the final product always in a single passage.
The OMET iFlex features a range of smart solutions, designed specifically to make the entire printing process even easier and more intuitive: iLight, a pre-registration system with laser pointer on every flexo unit; iVision, a register adjustment system allowing real-time setting through a set of smart cameras; iDrive, new direct driven transmission on the impression cylinder, which allows better performance and higher stability; Easy Change Die-Cut (ECDC), which eliminates long changeover time through a special sliding device.
