Bay Cities confirms it has ordered a high-speed single-pass Bárberan Jetmaster 1750 digital printer. For over 60 years, Bay Cities has been at the forefront of the packaging and display industry. With the addition of the Jetmaster, the California-based company is providing even more mass personalization and customization with different corrugated sheet sizes and color outputs. Bárberan will increase Bay Cities’ digital capabilities and be an addition to the current digital capabilities offered by the HP printer.
The Bárberan features high quality printing on any type of surface and does away with the need for multiple passes to get the color fully on the substrate. With a minimum sheet width of 23 inches all the way up to 76 inches, and a length minimum of 17 inches through 96 inches, Bay Cities will be able to print many different configurations, including pallet skirts and TV boxes. The new printer has a high production output and is capable of 80 m/minute on corrugated. It can print up to six vivid colors of UV inks that are G7 certified.
“Bárberan is thrilled to add Bay Cities to its users. Their reputation as a leader in POP displays as well as their high standards for quality and customer experience is something we hope to play a small part in for their clients,” said Jesus Bárberan, CEO Bárberan S.A. “From the beginning, they have been very engaged in the process. The entire Bay Cities team has really been enthusiastic throughout. Bárberan is very excited to partner with another leader in the industry.”
“In a time where demands are increasing and lead times are decreasing, with the Bárberan, we will have a machine that’s up to that challenge. Customers nowadays don’t want mass quantities; they want fewer with more variety. What better than a press that can provide variability sheet after sheet,” said Gabriel Perez, Plant Manager of Bay Cities.
