Durst's digital UV inkjet printing process offers a fast and easy workflow The Tau 150 8C is equiped with industryleading RIP software that provides a fully automated data workflow. An electronic job ticket contains all relevant data that are needed to drive the system. Incoming files will be ripped, color management will be applied and the "ready to print" files will be automatically sent to the queue manager of the press. For priority purposes, jobs can be re-arranged in the printing queue. Literally in less than a minute, files that were sent from a design station will be ready for printing. Appropriate press profiling and our dedicated UV inks match a high percentage of the Pantone color gamut without costly custom PMS inks. Durst's digital UV inkjet printing process cuts production cost, due to: · Its outstanding printing speed providing fastest production time, thus reducing labour and machine hour costs. · It uses ink costs of actual printed area only, instead of per-click cost models. · It supports more standard substrates with less need for pre-coated or special coated materials. · "Make ready" times are less than 5 minutes including substrate loading/replacement. · It consumes less than 5 meters (9 ft. ) of linear make-ready material. Durst's digital UV inkjet printing quality differenciates, because: · Its basic CMYK color configuration can be completed with White as well as Orange and Violet color thus offering a up to 90% coverage of the Pantone color gamut. · It can be equiped with a Digital Varnish print module for digital spot varnish applications · It creates images with vivid and superior color appearance compared to conventionally printed Flexographic images and at the same time it requires far less individual color inks to achieve equal results.
