Weigang brings four presses to Loupe South China

Weigang has announced it will show four offset, digital and hybrid label presses at Loupe South China 2026, taking place December 2-4 at the Shenzhen World Exhibition and Convention Center, to demonstrate how different printing technologies can complement one another.

The company will demonstrate its ZX-320 intermittent offset press, Xeikon Ecolyne dry-toner digital platform, ZJR S350 Ultra hybrid press and WG S230 inkjet label press.

The ZX-320 uses PS plates and servo-controlled intermittent printing, allowing converters to change repeat lengths without replacing printing cylinders. Designed for short- to medium-run production, it targets applications including cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, wine and food labels.

Weigang became the distributor of Xeikon’s Ecolyne platform across Greater China earlier this year. The full-rotary digital press offers CMYK plus white printing at 1,200 DPI, with a 330mm web width and speeds of up to 25m/min.

Ecolyne uses Xeikon QBE dry toner and supports substrates including paper, PP, PE, PET, vinyl and clear and metalized materials. According to the company, a wide range of substrates can be processed without pre-treatment. The platform is powered by Xeikon’s X-800 digital front end and supports variable data printing.

The ZJR S350 Ultra features a six-color hybrid configuration with a 1,200 DPI digital printing module. Digital resolution, color configuration and in-line processes can be configured to suit different applications. The platform combines printing with embellishment and finishing options to reduce intermediate handling and shorten turnaround times.

The compact WG S230 uses single-pass inkjet technology for short runs, frequent job changes and customized production. It features servo-driven web transport and supports versioned and variable data work.

Aegean He, director of marketing communications at Weigang, said: ‘We believe the future of the industry is not about digital replacing conventional printing. Instead, different technologies will increasingly complement one another to create more flexible, efficient, and sustainable production models.

‘For us, Loupe is no longer simply a platform to showcase equipment. This is an opportunity to exchange ideas with customers, partners, and industry peers about where the market is heading and how we can shape its future together.’

Weigang will exhibit in Hall 1, booth C38.
