RED BANK, NJ - Diversified Graphic Machinery, innovators of cold foil print enhancement technology for the global print packaging market will unveil its new compact designed Foildex® “Plus” Cold Foil Indexing Application System and feature in-line Filmdex™ UV Cast and Cure™ technology in its Green Space booth 867 at Graph Expo ‘14 in Chicago.

The North American debut of Foildex® “Plus” Cold Foil Indexing Application System at Graph Expo follows a highly successful and well-attended Cold Foil Innovations Summit held this summer at Diversified Graphic Machinery’s facility in Turin, Italy. 

DGM’s new Foildex® “Plus” Cold Foil Indexing Application System boasts more power and increased productivity than its predecessor, utilizing Siemens S-7 technology, more powerful 7.5kw servo drives, automatic locking shafts and new, compact and ergonomic operator design complete with digital segmented shafts for multiple narrow web operation and automatic/micro tension control. 

“I am excited to announce that we will unveil our newly designed Foildex® “Plus” Cold Foil indexing technology this year at Graph Expo. Foildex® “Plus” offers greater performance and will allow our customers to achieve higher speeds when indexing cold foil, with a new, more ergonomic compact design and the ability to index larger rolls of cold foil. Foildex® “Plus” is also offered as a combination unit that gives our clients the ability to run Cold Foil and UV Cast and Cure™ simultaneously,” said Michael DeBard, President, Diversified Graphic Machinery.

The exclusive Foildex® technology from DGM is the industry’s preferred Cold Foil System due to its ability to index the foil in the running direction of the sheet, offering a savings as much as 85% of foil waste. DGM’s Filmdex™ UV Casting Technology, Cast and Cure™ allows companies to apply a holographic image to the sheet with multiple re-use of the UV Casting Film.

In addition to its full range of Foildex® Cold Foil Indexing, UV Cast and Cure™ technology, at Graph Expo, DGM will also present high speed Hot Foil Stamping, Embossing, Die Cutting and Blanking machinery and the Die Co-Ordinator, a digital hot foil and embossing off-line die lockup system.
