19th to 21st April 2016, NEC Birmingham. Stand F10 

Kettering UK - Print specialist i-Sub has announced it will be presenting a range of wide-format print, packaging, textile and finishing technology at the upcoming Sign & Digital UK show, scheduled to take place at NEC Birmingham between 19th – 21st April 2016 on Stand F10. 

In particular, the company will be hosting the UK debut of four new solutions for the market: The Dgen Hexa pigment printer; the Mimaki TS300P dye-sublimation printer; the Digi-Foil DF Pro semi-automatic foil applicator; and the Zünd ARC (Automatic Router Bit Changer). 

The company will also be offering a raft of substantial offers on all machines purchased at the show.

Dgen Hexa pigment printer

Sign & Digital UK 2016 will mark the first UK showing of the Dgen Hexa pigment printer. With a maximum 1880mm print width, fast print speeds of up to 52sq/m per hour, and a water-based CMYK, blue and orange hexachrome ink set offering a wide colour gamut, this new printer offers outstanding colour rendition on finished products. 

With the ability to print onto a wide range of natural and man-made fibres, the Dgen Hexa opens up a raft of new applications and opportunities in many new markets. 

Mimaki TS300P Dye sublimation printer 

i-Sub will also be showcasing the recently announced Mimaki TS300P dye-sublimation printer at the event. With a maximum 1940mm print width, fast print speeds of up to 52sq/m, and water-based CMYK, fluorescent pink, fluorescent yellow and light black ink sets, the new addition to the Mimaki line-up offers a punchy and wide colour gamut, and produces bold, bright colours beyond the range of normal process colour printing.

Digi-Foil DF Pro semi-automatic foil applicator

Sign & Digital UK 2016 will also be the venue for the first UK showing of i-Sub’s new Digi-Foil DF Pro semi-automatic foil applicator. Building on i-Sub’s unique and successful Digi-Foil system, this is a new application method that offers a superior finish on all foiling applications – especially on large flat areas of foil that were previously unachievable.  

Digi-Foil is now able to easily apply block foils up to 400mm wide whilst retaining the detail enjoyed by the many existing Digi-Foil users – with a foil dot size going down to 0.5mm if required.

Zünd ARC (Automatic Router Bit Changer)  

Finally, i-Sub will be showcasing the Zünd ARC (Automatic Router Bit Changer) on the Zünd G3 L2500 cutting table. This new feature fully automates router bit changes on the flagship G3 cutting table range.  With the ability to select, load, set cutting depth and then clean the tool bit after cutting the ARC system has revolutionised cutting and routing.  

Being a fully automated system, the risk of error and waste is completely removed from production.  i-Sub will be demonstrating all aspects of this new function throughout the show and producing some interesting samples for visitors to take away. 

As well as the new machines on show, i-Sub will be debuting Soyang’s SoDecor digitally printable wallpaper collection and interior decoration materials. i-Sub will be printing samples on the Mimaki CJV300 solvent printer to demonstrate the quality of the product and offer ideas for potential uses.

Nick Davies, Director at i-Sub, comments: “We’re very much looking forward to this year’s Sign & Digital UK event. As well as introducing a number of exciting new products from our suppliers, we’ll be producing samples on all the models on display for visitors to take away after the show. We look forward to meeting with current and potential customers at the show.”

i-Sub and its key representatives will be found on stand F10 throughout Sign & Digital UK 2016. If you would like to make an appointment in advance, please contact [email protected].
