The Print 13 show in the US is the launchpad for Scodix Ultra Digital Press, designed to produce 1,250 B2+ (21.5 x 31in) prints per hour and based upon the company’s Scodix Sense technology.
The patent-pending technology is based upon a multi-CCD camera system and dedicated software algorithms. This coupling of technology allows Scodix presses to rotate the enhancement to adjust for imperfectly cut sheets, scale the enhancement to compensate for humidity-changed sheets, and to position each image with pinpoint accuracy, correcting for any fit-shifts inherent in digital and litho printing.
The Scodix Ultra Digital Press executes enhancements with proprietary PolySense clear polymer which shines up to 99 gloss units creating a high impact and tangible dimension. These polymers are further enhanced by applying the Scodix ‘lens effect’ (which brings more colour to the viewing eye) or Scodix Metallic, which offers a variety of metallic colors in a single step process.
The new printer offers Scodix Twin-Tray Technology (two trays operating simultaneously), supporting up to B2+ size sheet format (545 x 788mm / 21.5 x 31in) in material weights of 135 - 675gsm and thicknesses up to 0.7 mm.
