In a recent online presentation, representatives of SCREEN, a manufacturer of high-speed inkjet printing systems, and Tecnau, a manufacturer of finishing solutions, highlighted new systems designed to increase the speed and flexibility of short-run book production.
From SCREEN, this included its Truepress Jet520HD series inkjet printers, and the new Truepress Jet520HD Mono Press, which was set, in this case, to run a book application. SCREEN also highlighted its Jet520HD+ and 520HD AD, which includes an advanced drying system.
Tecnau demonstrated a variety of continuous feed and cutsheet production finishing solutions, including the Revolution 50 series for continuous roll to cut-and-stack. The company’s StreamFolder 5152 was highlighted for book block creation, and the Stack 5251 was demonstrated for double-cut direct-mail and transactional applications.
