Scodix Introduces Ultra2 Pro Digital Enhancement Press with Foil Station

Press release from the issuing company

SCODIX, ISRAEL – Scodix, the world’s leading provider of digital enhancement solutions for the graphic arts industry, today announces the launch of the Scodix Ultra2 Pro Digital Enhancement Press with Foil Station, the ultimate multi material system. Previously, the Scodix Ultra Pro system was the only digital enhancement presses worldwide capable of producing nine different applications, on the largest variety of substrates and with all printing processes. Now the Scodix Ultra2 builds on that foundation further boosting flexibility, quality and productivity for customers.

A pioneer of the digital enhancement market, Scodix first introduced the Scodix S system in 2012, followed by the Scodix Ultra. Today, close to 300 Scodix systems are installed worldwide, serving the most demanding customers. The Scodix Ultra2, the new addition to the Scodix family of digital enhancement presses, was designed as the ultimate multi material platform, enabling enhanced support for applications, substrates, and print processes. Users of the Scodix Ultra Pro will be able to upgrade to the Scodix Ultra2, starting in 2018.

The Scodix Ultra2’s state-of-the-art design allows for broader flexibility, enhanced quality and increased productivity. The entire print engine has been changed to provide extensive flexibility, high accuracy of print and cost effectiveness, supported by fast switching between polymers, with improved print quality and superior material flow. The Scodix Ultra2 includes 5 ink tanks, allowing a comprehensive choice of enhancements, in one platform. A new adaptive LED process controls the curing process with improved accuracy, while the unique Scodix PAS™ (Pin Activate Secure) technologies deliver superior enhancement with ultra-fine detail.

Scodix CEO, Roy Porat comments: “Our aim at Scodix is to continually support our customers to ‘enhance their competitive edge’. There is no polymer in the world that is suitable for all substrates, no drop behaves the same on all substrates or all printed material. Consequently, we have developed the Scodix Ultra2 Pro, alongside our variety of innovative polymers designed for different purposes, as a system which can deliver the ultimate results. This is essentially a multi-material platform.”

Porat continues: “Expanded substrate offerings, the unparalleled nine different enhancement effects, as well compatibility with the largest variety of CMYK processes, confirms Scodix’ position as the market leader in digital enhancement. The Scodix Ultra2 Pro represents our continued commitment to identifying areas for improvement within the graphic arts industry and proactively innovating.”
