Xeikon Launches Latest Digital Label Press
September 10th, 2008 by TracyXeikon is a division of Punch Graphix and legendary for pioneering the first digital color presses. They recently launched the Xeikon 3000, its latest digital label press. It joins the Xeikon 3300 and completes the company’s product portfolio for the label and packaging industry.
The Xeikon 3300 represents a massive leap in label print quality by offering true 1200 dpi at four bits per spot. It has a top speed of 63 feet per minute and is an extremely fast digital color label press, particularly suited for short to medium print runs and just-in-time jobs. The Xeikon 3000 represents the entry-level counterpart of the Xeikon 3300. It is an ideal fit for label converters eager to enter digital printing but do not need the high speed and productivity of the Xeikon 3300. It is also a perfect press for label converters wanting to focus on niche applications like paperboard packaging or textile transfer printing.
The Xeikon 3000 has a top speed of 31.5 feet per minute and allows label converters to master digital printing at a more leisurely pace. The 3000 can also be upgraded to the Xeikon 3300 once the user is ready for the next level. The Xeikon 3000 is identical to the 3300 in imaging quality, format flexibility of substrates or substrate weight flexibility. Both presses can also print the four process colors and a range of standard or custom spot colors.
