Canon Solutions America Collaborates with DigiTech and Colex to Offer Demonstrations of Integrated Print and Cut Solutions at PRINTING United Expo

Press release from the issuing company

MELVILLE, N.Y. – To showcase high-volume rigid and roll-to-roll production capabilities, Canon Solutions America, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Canon U.S.A., Inc., will join forces with DigiTech and Colex at PRINTING United Expo 2023 from October 18-20 in Atlanta, Georgia.

In collaboration with Canon Solutions America, both companies will demonstrate fully integrated print and cut solutions for boards and roll media to trade show attendees. Located at booth #C2247 inside the Georgia World Congress Center, DigiTech, a company that boasts more than 30 years of experience in the digital printing field, will provide a demonstration of the Texas LT/X2 UV flatbed stationary printer. This device has fostered a reputation for quality in the flatbed printer manufacturing industries; focusing on automation, workflow software, easy operations, and fast speeds.

The Texas LT/X2 UV flatbed printer is designed and manufactured specifically for the high-volume production environment. It can meet capacity needs of more than 120-plus boards-per-hour and houses a semi-automation option along with an auto-unloader feature that can lift the printed board off a table and drop it onto a conveyor system feeding a Colex digital finishing system. This allows for the finished product to be packaged and shipped fast with just one operator.

Canon Solutions America will also team up with Colex (booth #B11113), which has become a global industry leader by utilizing technology with high-quality cutters. Colex specializes in wide format roll and ridged media cutting equipment for graphic signs, displays, package, and point-of-purchase displays. The Colex footprint will showcase the Canon UVgel Print Factory, which is designed for high-volume, roll-to-roll large format production.

The UVgel Print Factory is an integrated, high-capacity solution for production of large volumes of the same application or media. Visitors to the booth will get a first-hand look of the hardware, which consists of a jumbo roll loader, a Canon Colorado series large-format printer, and a jumbo roll rewinder. This solution features Canon’s UVgel, a unique ‘print-then-cure’ technology with instant-dry gel inks, cured with UV LED lights.

Canon U.S.A. Inc., a leader in digital imaging solutions, invites attendees to visit its booth (#B4033) to experience the wide breadth of Canon’s offerings and diverse portfolio in large format and display graphics, production printing, high-speed inkjet production printing, and workflow solutions.

We were lucky to install the DigiTech LT/X2 (now also sold as the Canon Texas) and Colex conveyor to our Colex SXC1732 in May and it is a truly remarkable solution. I'd highly recommend taking a close look at it!
