Screen JET 350UV launches in US

The Truepress Jet L350UV offers print speeds up to 164 fpm and can accommodate maximum printing and media widths up to 12.6 inches and 13.7 inches, respectively. The company was demonstrating its single-pass opaque white UV ink as well as offering 4-color metallic samples produced with the Color Logic system for which Screen is certified.

New is a corona discharge unit which improves ink adhesion on transparent film and metallic foil.

Screen also showed its JetConverter L350 modular label converting line.

‘We have brought to this press Screen’s years of experience with variable data imaging, screening and color control,’ said Sean Cummins, product manager for Screen North America. ‘This is brought together in our own Equios front end, which helps us achieve a wide color gamut from the CMYK ink set in the press.’

The press on stand has been sold to US converter Label Shop, which will use the press in an in-line configuration as it uses only a limited number of dies.
