EFI has used the CCE International Corrugated and Carton Exhibition to launch the Nozomi 14000, a 1.4m wide, direct-to-board, single-pass UV LED inkjet printer with a top speed of 100 linear metres per minute.
“This next evolution in EFI’s breakthrough Nozomi technology delivers a tailor-made solution to meet the current demands of the industrial packaging segment,” said Evandro Matteucci, vice president and general manager, packaging and building materials, EFI.
Users can choose from a range of configurations, with single or dual bottom feeder options, a roller coater capable of applying varying amounts of primer, an optional varnish station that allows for a range of gloss or satin finishes, and full or bundle stacker options. The printer, available with up to six colours, is driven by the latest-version EFI Fiery NZ-1000 digital front end (DFE). Included is the Fiery FS500 Pro, and the DFE can connect users with EFI IQ, a suite of cloud-based business intelligence and management solutions.
