Digital print system for integration into the packaging
line
Heidelberger Druckmaschinen AG (Heidelberg) is introducing the
Linoprint DriveLine F UV inkjet printing system at this year's
interpack in Dusseldorf from 12 to 18 May. This digital printing
system is an inkjet solution for inline and nearline integration in
packaging lines, particularly in the pharmaceutical and medical
engineering industries. The printing system offers an extremely
high level of flexibility and production reliability for individual
and integrated printing of blister foils.
Daniel Dreyer, Head of the Heidelberg Linoprint business
area, says: "With our Linoprint UV inkjet printing systems, we are
offering a well-rounded portfolio for variable, high-quality
printing of labels, aluminum blister and plastic foils, and folding
boxes. At this year's interpack we are introducing the DriveLine F
printing system that is specially designed for sensitive
pharmaceutical packaging. The system enables pharmaceutical
manufacturers and packaging companies to integrate digital inkjet
printing into their production lines for safe and reliable printing
of individualized packaging materials."
DriveLine F for safe and reliable printing of pharmaceutical
blister packs and foils
DriveLine F optimally adapts to the pace of the
packaging line and handles both intermittent and continuous
operation. Static and variable content can also be printed flexibly
in high quality on the back of pharmaceutical blister packs or
foils. The DriveLine F system uses specially developed UV inks with
a low migration potential and excellent set-off properties that
cure with the required sealing strength immediately after printing.
An integrated print control system ensures a perfect match of
layout and input data in production - thus, the finishing of only
faultlessly printed foils is guaranteed. DriveLine F processes
aluminum, composite and plastic foil in widths up to 320 mm. It is
capable of printing foil widths up to 280 mm and thicknesses
ranging from 15 µm to 100 µm at 360 dpi resolution. An
second head optionally allows the choice of higher resolution (720
dpi), two-color or redundant printing.
