Rollem International is displaying its widest selection of finishing equipment at Print 17 in Chicago, taking place September 10-14, including the debut of its Insignia7 large format die cutter.
Supplied in Australia by Graph Pak, Rollem says its flexo-magnetic die cutter offers the largest sheet size in its class with a 30×24” capacity along with industry leading 30 pt capabilities, for finishing output from offset and HP Indigo 10000 and 30000 presses.
Visitors will see various applications including 8-up die cut and kiss cut gift tag sheets and kiss-cut label sheets.
Rollem says its coat and cut demonstration will appeal to printers who require UV coating of their press sheets.
“The TEC Lighting UV coater will feed and UV coat a menu application which is handed off in-line to the Rollem Jetstream for edge trims and scoring – all in one process. The benefit of this configuration includes the elimination of stock movement, less manpower and increased production times.”
Rollem says the demonstration addresses opportunities for printers to expand into the growing packaging segment by offering their customers affordable, high quality custom die cutting.
Rollem will also display its Jetstream+Auto-Collator, an automated XY Cutter/Collator which the company says converts multiple-up products into sets. Sheets are trimmed, slit, scored, perforated and cut, all in one pass. The company says this eliminates guillotine cutting and increases production while delivering slitting accuracy.
The result is a machine which Rollem says is suited to produce playing cards, game cards, retail shelf tags, business cards, or rewards cards.
The UK-based company says it will showcase print finishing systems across die cutting, UV coating, slitting, scoring, perforating and cutting/collating at Print 17 in Chicago.
Visitors are invited to pick up a collector’s pack of Rollem antique reproduction playing card decks printed on a HP 10000 press.
