More colour capability
With the LabelStream’s expanded colour capability, you can add optional orange and white ink channels. Match a wider range of brand colours and achieve highest white opacity without compromising on quality or reliability.
The new white ink channel achieves up to 80% opacity at 36 m/min in a single pass. Eliminate lengthy set-up times and expensive screens, as well as increase cost efficiencies. With additional opacities of more than 70% at 50 m/min and more than 65% at 75 m/min, a wide range of performance levels are available.
Using Xaar 2001 printhead technology, which offers high pigment load, and increased ink laydown capability, the LabelStream inks attain a colour gamut of 96% at a Delta E 2000 value of less than 2. Deliver high-quality labels, accurately matched brand colours and consistent output on standard label stock, print after print.
New entry-level configuration
Looking for a digital or entry-level hybrid configuration? The LabelStream 4000 CORE unit is the ideal first step into the world of high performance, UV inkjet printing. Built on a cost-efficient, yet powerful base unit, you have the option to expand the press set-up to meet your needs.
With its reliable UV inkjet technology and a robust web transport system, the press offers print speeds of up to 75m/min and two print width set-ups of 330mm or 410mm, resulting in an industry-leading output speed of 1,845m²/hr, so you can benefit from quicker turnaround times. You can also complement your digital production printer with UV flexo units for spot colours, varnishing and coating.
For more complex applications, the LabelStream 4000 HYBRID configuration offers a custom mix of UV flexo, embellishment and finishing units, turning it into a fully integrated, single-pass label conversion line. This mix of conventional and digital technologies enables a complete inline production of high-quality self-adhesive labels.
The LabelStream provides faster syncing between flexo and digital print units, so you can benefit from reduced operator intervention, increased uptime and high-quality output. The seamless interplay of the two technologies, driven by LabelStream’s central control panel, allows for easy recalling of job settings and automated job set-up. The central control panel enables job changes to take effect on-the-fly without halting the press to adjust digital and analogue elements.
