With the brand new D480.2, Hinterkopf presents already it’s fourth generation of digital printing systems. The innovative concepts is based on over 10 years of proven technology, and offers customers a vastly expanded range of possibilities in decoration of packaging – translucent colors, gloss or barrier coatings to name only a few. The design teams at Hinterkopf have incorporated classic analog stations to the otherwise fully digital printing system. As Alexander Hinterkopf, managing director at Hinterkopf explains: „Not all finishing processes can be realized through digital printing. That is the reason why we offer customers options such as adding engraved anilox rollers to elevate advanced high-end packaging with tactile effects.” In order to ensure reliable drying of such special coatings, a specific additional station can be integrated to the D480.2 digital printer.
Another new feature of the new system are new translucent inks, for example to add very lightly pigmented coatings. The decoration with high-gloss coatings is also possible. A total of 24 stations can be integrated into the D480.2 machine. The exact configuration of options will be specifically designed to customer requirements.
