Gallus adds new in-line finishing options to Labelfire 340

On the basis of ‘numerous customer requests’, these functions have now been expanded to include the rotative screen printing unit. The fully integrated screen printing unit can be positioned upstream or downstream of the press. In front of the digital printing unit, for example, the customer benefits from the opacity of white screen printing ink. Downstream, the entire pallet of advantages of screen printing can be applied, such as the haptic effects of spot varnishing or safety applications with special screen printing inks.

The Gallus Labelfire can therefore produce finished and die-cut labels in a single production operation, improving production speeds for finished labels and producing less waste.

This saves label printers time, costs and material compared to a multi-step production process, as there is no changeover required for subsequent further processing. Additionally, thanks to the latest-generation inkjet printing heads from Fujifilm, the Gallus Labelfire achieves a native resolution of 1200 DPI.
