Building on their presence at drupa with one of the most advanced end-to-end smart factory digital production lines ever shown in public, Konica Minolta and MGI Digital Technology will be hosting interactive and live events over the coming months.
The aim will be to further accelerate the companies’ digital transformation journey and help customers to see the potential in the future of print in new, engaging ways.
At the heart of the discussions will be MGI’s AlphaJET, the single-pass B2 & B1 digital inkjet press from printing to finishing. It boasts a combination of water-based CYMK inks with in-line digital embellishment, eco-spot UV coating and green-foil effects capability.
Other AlphaJET features include:
- A patented, electromagnetic substrate flat paper transport system with smart trays for perfect registration and movements, resulting in high resolution printing and jam-free operations;
- CMYK and spot UV coating registration using intelligent scanners and colour calibration with complete automation;
- IOT system and MGI Connect cloud-based platforms;
- Competitive total cost of ownership;
- Environmental impact savings – no tooling, no waste, no preparation and plastic free.
MGI and Konica Minolta will be showing how customers can differentiate their print chain value with the Factory 5.0 concept that involves complete automation of manufacturing processes for customised and flexible mass production and unique value-added opportunities. The partners will also highlight the digital water-based four-colour inkjet press’s single-pass Factory 5.0 overprinting hybrid capabilities.
One live event will be an exclusive round table webinar on 2nd December at 14:00 Paris time, with Dan Brunton of Brunton Publications, moderating. Reserve your spot here.
Edmond Abergel, President of MGI, said, “We will be showing how we are revolutionising folding carton production with DX automation, human centricity, sustainability and hybrid embellishment with a competitive total cost of ownership. Don’t miss this game-changing opportunity.”
