A New Cost Effective Solution for Hot Foil Stamping
The new Varimatrix 105 CSF can be used for hot foil stamping as
well as die cutting and stripping. This makes the machine ideal for
trade finishers as well as packaging, security, label and
commercial printers who are looking to offer customers a
comprehensive service and added value, thanks to a wider range of
surface finishing options.
Metallic effects and multi stage/relief embossing can be
applied to substrates from 80gsm up to 1400gsm efficiently and in a
single pass, using the hot foil module of the Varimatrix 105 CSF.
The cost-effective technology of the hot foil stamper is highly
impressive. It is possible to heat only specific zones, which means
that the complete plate does not have to be heated when working
with small formats. In addition, accurate foil feed optimises foil
use.
Make ready times are kept to a minimum via the simple
touch screen control panel, ensuring cost-effective embossing and
metallic surface finishes, even for short runs. A frame-changing
system results in quick and ergonomic job changes. New hot foils or
die cutting jobs can be prepared on the optional frame-changing
table while the current job is being foil stamped in the machine.
Thanks to the ergonomic design, a single operator can pull the
large hot honeycomb plates straight out of the machine onto the
frame-changing table.
The Varimatrix 105 CSF foil re-winder, winds the foils on six
independent shafts in a dedicated module. Optical control elements
prevent tears in the thin foil by ensuring foil tension remains
constant.
The key features of the Varimatrix 105 CSF include its
excellent quality and efficient workflows. The maximum processing
speed is 6,000 sheets per hour for hot foil embossing and 7,500
sheets per hour for die cutting and stripping. Sheet formats range
from a minimum of 350 x 400mm to a maximum of 750 x 1,050mm.
