At the forthcoming Grafi+Sign show in Kortrijk, Belgium from 4th to 6th October, we will be launching a new addition to the phenomenally successful Jupiter range - the double-sided Jupiter.  The new Jupiter will be shown by Printemat SPRL on stand number 136.
 

Developed in response to the wish of many digital printers to laminate both sides of their output, it will offer genuine improvements in productivity over two pass working.
 
Based on the 30 metres per minute single-sided version, the new model will have a bottom pre-heat and heated nip, as well as a bottom unwind.
 
The control panel has been re-configured as the machine lay-out has been changed to make provision for the bottom unwind, but the design of the unit and workings of the controls will be familiar to those who have seen  the Jupiter before.
 
It will run at about 20 metres per minute double-sided (still at 30M/min. single-sided) and the electrically controlled heated bottom rollers takes very little time to cool down sufficiently to switch to one sided work.
 
It will of course be available with the Jupiter stacker, which debuted at the Poligrafia show in Poznan in April 2009, where the Proteus was awarded a Gold Medal by the organisers.
 
Further developments to the Jupiter range are planned and will be announced shortly.

 

SuperStick® resin has established itself as the premier medium - on OPP, Nylon, polyester and PVC - for overcoming adhesion problems on a variety of difficult digital output, not just the original Xerox models for which it was designed.
 
However, ongoing developments in digital printing technology continually offer us fresh challenges, some of which have meant that SuperStick® is not the best answer. Certain HP Indigo output has proved such a challenge and the D & K Group technical team set about developing a solution and came up with High Treat resin. On polyester film High Treat resin is now quite widely used in USA for double sided laminating of Indigo prepared PVC for card manufacture.
 
There are a number of trials going on in Europe of High Treat resin - from card production to label overlaminating - and results will be reported in due course.
