Prototype & Production Systems Offers Digital Print Engine

Published: December 04, 2017

MINNEAPOLIS, MN | Prototype & Production Systems offers the DICEweb digital print engine. Said to be designed for maximum reliability and to feature Fuji SG-1024 printheads. The SG-1024 is capable of withstanding harsh environments and delivering consistent output over a long service life. Company says robust and repairable design means printheads are not a consumable like other digital print engines.

Other reported benefits include a design that is easy to understand, run, and maintain; a vacuum printhead cleaning system that help keep the printheads clean in harsh work environments and prevents jet outs; recirculating ink supplies to ensure precise control of temperature, pressure, and flow rate, reliable jetting, and freedom from print defects caused by ink supply variations.

According to the company, adding a DICEweb to an analog press creates a state-of-the-art hybrid digital web press with the following benefits:

Produce four-color process jobs without plates, setup, registration issues, or cleanup.
Combine analog and digital print on the same job.
Print at speeds to 360 fpm (110 mpm).
Select print widths to 25 in. (635 mm) or more (wider versions available by special order)
Print up to six colors—CMYK + two spot or extended gamut colors (orange/green/violet, etc.)
Get the same digital capabilities as a full digital press or hybrid press at a fraction of the cost.
