Gruppo Finlogic installs second Domino N610i press

Italian label manufacturer and identification systems supplier Gruppo Finlogic has installed a second Domino N610i digital label press to enhance production processes and increase printing performance across its seven manufacturing facilities in Italy and Spain.

The company, which first installed a Domino N610i in 2019 through Italian distributor NTG Digital, has been impressed by the press's performance and believes digital technology will capture market share from traditional printing methods.

Finlogic uses both presses to produce labels for food, wine and pharmaceutical applications, with the equipment enabling rapid response to customer demands while delivering higher margins.

'Brands are looking for labels with unique and exclusive characteristics, which will appeal to consumers,' commented Dino Natale, CEO of Gruppo Finlogic. 'The N610i produces these high-quality, premium labels with ease. The press is equipped with double white print bars, allowing us to print on transparent materials. It is also possible to simulate screen printing, producing textured finishing effects.'

The N610i presses handle variable data printing, including serialized barcodes and QR codes, which aligns with Finlogic's focus on traceability and identification.

'For this type of application, the two Domino systems guarantee excellent results,' Natale added. 'Years ago, we talked about variable data, but the market did not require it. Today, there are more requests for printed codes, and being able to deliver this type of application becomes a point of distinction for our business.'

The 600 DPI UV inkjet press runs at up to 50 m/min and offers the flexibility of rapid job changes.

'The N610i's UV inkjet technology fits perfectly with our needs, representing an ideal alternative to flexographic printing on medium runs,' noteed Natale. 'Our two Domino machines are able to compete in production capacity with four flexographic machines.'
