The theme “The digital future for labels and special packaging has just begun”.
Durst’s stand at LabelexpoDurst, a specialist in industrial inkjet applications, has announced that it had a highly successful LabelExpo2015. It presented its latest developments in the product portfolio for the Label & Package Printing segment with the slogan ´Tau 330 – Configure Your Digital Future Today`.
Meanwhile, the Tau 330 UV Inkjet Printer System has been integrated into the production process of more than 50 companies. Durst said LabelExpo2015 provided a great opportunity for it to gain new customers, such as Adesa from France, while UK-based Company The Label Makers used the trade fair platform to order its second Tau 330.
In addition to the individual configurability and the industrial scaling, a lot of attention was focused on the fully automated integration of the Tau 330 with third-party solutions. A comprehensive range of options was displayed by the print service provider Printum. Its stand was equipped with a 30 meter production line, consisting of a Tau 330 and a number of conventional finishing solutions.
In contrast to this industrial scale end-to-end set-up was Durst's introduction of the Tau 330E at the LabelExpo, which it believes will pave the way for small- and medium-sized companies to enter into digital production. This entry-level model is priced at 35 per cent below the top version, but features the identical print quality and productivity. It comes as a stand-alone printer system, equipped with up to five colours. Durst added that it has also developed new highly-pigmented UV-inks for the economical Tau 330E, which it maintains reduce ink consumption by up to 25 per cent.
Peter BrayThe company also addressed the issue of workflow optimization and presented its own Image Processing Software to enable Direct Order Processing and Print Data Control via a web browser, to ensure a rapid coordination and allow for decentralized production processes.
“Our Tau 330 has fully managed to bring the inkjet-technology on par with other production methods,” says Helmuth Munter, Segment Manager, Durst Label & Package Printing. “We already provide an almost unrivalled configurability and scaling today, we don't make any compromises with regards to our print quality and productivity. We open up new business areas, such as primary packaging for our customers; we simplify workflow processes and assist our global customer base with any necessary service or support they require. Digital production in the Label & Package Printing segment is a reality and we are making it happen”.
