Enhanced Drying Required! Print Market Looks for adphosNIR Technology

At DRUPA 2016, enhanced drying required by many, typically high productivity, digital, conventional printing and coating machines have been introduced. But almost all showed capacity, performance or quality limits due to their installed dryer solutions – that is those not already using adphosNIR®-drying technology.

adphos has been contacted to upgrade, enhance or even retrofit in place of these existing driers, whether:

  • For speed in sheet and continuous web processing,
  • For a wider range of substrates, especially commercial offset or coated glossy stocks,
  • For waterbased-UV-Hybrid

adphos introduces the new aLITE®-Technology revolutionizing “direct to shape printing” at drupa 2016

aLITE®-Technology, advanced Light Initiated Thermal Emission from adphos (in short adphosLITE®), will be launched at drupa 2016 in Düsseldorf.

aLITE is based on an area-focussed, high intensity energy source, to allow instantaneous thermal processing. Thus water based or solvent based coatings can be instantly dried or even cured, which is a mandatory requirement to overcome the present application barriers to coating applications in “direct to shape printing”. Today these applications are typically performed by integration of label-printed solutions into the industrial production

adphosNIR® technology ensures high performance and quality for digital printing presses

The graphic arts industry has already made a significant investment in inkjet and believes that the market will experience growth in a wide range of applications – even before DRUPA 2016.

Today, more than ever, known bottleneck limitations are a problem for productivity:

  • –  Limited range of substrates
  • –  Ink coverage (even less than 270%)
  • –  Color density limitations
  • –  Reduced productivity and performance – especially for coated and

    glossy substrates

  • –  Waviness (cockle and curl) of printed products
  • –  Longer make readies with resulting
