Finishing - Digital

Founded in 1998, Great Big Color recently invested in an Esko integrated digital finishing solution.

Harris & Bruno International will debut ExcelCoat options of a Corona Treatment Unit and Duplexer at GRAPH EXPO 15.

I've written more than once on the rapid evolution of finishing, which is being driven by the equally rapid adoption of inkjet web printing. Inline web finishing was always something of a "black art" in the offset web world. Since high-speed offset web presses don't print at the push of a button, performing complex finishing operations inline with the web press took a lot of engineering expertise.

One of Israel’s leading design schools, Shenkar, collaborated with creator of Highcon Euclid, a digital cutting and creasing solution.

Next month, Duplo USA will host a Digital Finishing Expo at the Valley Forge Casino Resort in King of Prussia, Pennsylvania.

SG360º has added the Kongsberg XE digital cutting and creasing table to its lineup of CAD technologies.

At the beginning of the digital printing era, there were legitimate concerns about certain types of finishing equipment not being tailored to this type of work. Vendors replied in kind but, printers being printers, found new applications that complicated matters even further. We’ve rounded up a group of well-known printers—practically celebrities in their field—to offer the whats and whys behind their approach to binding and finishing.

At the 2015 Inkjet Summit, MBO America presented renowned variable finishing solutions to leading direct mail and book manufacturers.

Back in the day, the bindery (and finishing in general) was a fairly distinct environment, with some established processes and workflows that had not changed in many decades, (or longer!). This continued to be the case up until several years ago, when high-speed continuous inkjet presses began to take off.

More than 100 printers met in April at the Inkjet Summit 2015 in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida.
