MGI to Introduce the Alphajet B2 Sheetfed Inkjet Press at drupa

The Alphajet prints in six colors plus UV coating and utilizes MGI’s award-winning UV inkjet technology, as seen previously in the JETvarnish (B2 format) and JETcard (ISO CR-80 cards).

Main features of the press include:

• production speeds of up to 3,000 sheets per hour,
• six color UV inkjet printing,
• spot or flood UV coating,
• resolutions of up to 1,200 x 1,200 dpi,
• cut sheet sizes of up to 20x29˝,
• substrate weights up to 500 gsm, and
• full variable-data printing.

The Alphajet B2 sheetfed digital inkjet press effectively bridges the gap between the advantages of offset (speeds, accuracy and quality) and the benefits of digital technologies (on-demand, no makeready and variable data), while providing the same flexibility and versatility that is a hallmark of all MGI’s digital solutions.
