Analog-to-digital: adphos aNIR® dryer enables compact drying solutions in print finishing applications with digitally applied OPV (overprint varnish)

In addition to inkjet inks, often CMYK enhanced by white and other special colours, the Actega Terra inkjet R & D-team has developed an overprint varnish that can be applied to pre-printed surfaces, using the Seiko 1536 RC print head. This combination is applied in the modular print bar-arrangement “HIVE” from ideeGo GmbH. The compact aNIR® drying-module from adphos evaporates the water from the ink with maximum efficiency.

The four co-operating companies involved will present this concept in a panel discussion

adphos propriety aNIR®-technology enables high quality, high performance Inkjet Printing for a lower cost as for offset printing

Thanks to the company own developed and widely patented advanced NIR (aNIR®) drying technology from adphos, now inkjet printing solutions can be offered that closes the gap with analog offset printing.

aNIR® enables inkjet printing that offers offset quality at a speed of 150 m/min on glossy papers with high ink coverage at top speed.

All that at costs lower than offset at higher run-length as in the past.

The aNIR®-drying technology allows an ink, ink coverage, substrate, material and format dependent intrinsic dryer power adjustment. So lowest, today’s dryer power configurations and lowest
