Published: January 08, 2009

DERRY, NH | Allen Datagraph Systems’ new i-Tech Fusion is a hybrid die-cutting system for short- and large-run label converting that combines digital and analog technology capable of continuous media flow at 50 fpm. Employs a state-of-the-art registration system in coordination with a cylindrical die to ensure precise cuts. System utilizes a magnetic die cylinder, allowing a variable frame length of 2–10 in., and includes automatic lamination, stripping, and slitting stations. Modular design permits customization and modification, including UV coating and varnishing systems. Automated SimPlex web guidance system reportedly simplifies setup by a trained operator in less than 10 min and decreases lead and down times. Pricing is said to be at a fraction of the cost of most high-end finishing systems. Visit: www.allendatagraph.com.
