M y P R I N T R e s o u r c e . c o m NEW PRODUCTS UD-300 On Demand Die Cutter Duplo USA has unveiled the UD-300 Die Cutter with a new, optional separator and conveyor Unit. The UD-300 produces a variety of custom-shaped bro- chures and direct mailers, sta- tionery, retail packages, labels, and folded boxes on demand. Designed for use with flexible dies, the UD-300 performs multiple cuts, slits, slit-scores, kiss cuts, perforations, and window punches for single and multiple-up pieces on a wide range of paper stock up to 14x20 inches at 3,000 sheets per hour. The UD-300 comes equipped with an exit tray and users can now add the option- al separator and conveyor unit to automatically remove the waste of each sheet. The photo-eye sensor ensures only the finished pieces are neatly stacked onto the con- veyor. MyPRINTResource.com/10005029 Sublimatable Storage Tins Condé Systems has added storage tins to its DyeTrans family of sublimatable products. The attractive and functional silver-colored storage tins are available in 5.875x2-inch round and 5x7.75x2-inch rectangle sizes and feature a peel and stick recessed area on the removable lids for displaying imaged white or satin silver aluminum inserts. Digital decorators can easily add full-color images and custom designs to the available lid inserts to create unique and memorable gift packaging for weddings/bridal showers, birthdays, and holidays as well as attention grabbing promotional containers for trade shows, sales events, fundrais- ers, and more. MyPRINTResource.com/10004573 Truepress JetSX The Truepress JetSX is a system for printing photo-dominant books and other publications, as well as posters, calendars, folders, and book covers. Print buyers in various business seg- ments can use highly personalized and sophisticated marketing materials, direct mail, customized gifts, and pro- motional packaging to communicate with their customers. Employing water-based pigment inks and Screen's FM screening, the press pro- duces fine detail and very smooth grada- tions. It features a minimum droplet size of 2 picoliters and can output at 1,440 x 1,440 dpi with a maximum sheet size of 20.8x29.1 inches. The top speed of 1,620 simplex sheets per hour (810 sheets per hour in the duplex mode) is the equiva- lent of 108 U.S. letter-size pages per min- ute or 13 eight-page sections per minute. The Truepress JetSX prints directly onto gloss, matte and wood-free offset paper, among others. The flexibility of the Truepress JetSX is further enhanced through a paper handling system based on traditional offset press technology. The precision vacuum flatbed paper transport mechanism produces perfect print because the ink is always jetted from the optimum vertical position. This enables the Truepress JetSX to accom- modate paper package materials, coated board and cardboard up to 24 points in the simplex mode and 16 points in the duplex mode. The Truepress JetSX, combined with the Screen Equios front end and third- party finishing equipment, can be inte- grated to provide a highly automated, web-to-delivery solution. Files received online can be automatically preflighted, color managed, imposed and placed in the print queue. Once the job is printed, Equios passes the necessary information through to an MIS system for automatic billing if required. MyPRINTResource.com/10007873 Transalloy P-300 Multi-Polymer Transilwrap Company, Inc. is helping leading retailers save time and reduce costs associated with display signage using the newly re-released Transalloy P-300 multi-polymer alloy—the top engineered alloy film alternative to vinyl and styrene for market- ing and advertising print applications. "Big Box" retailers are constantly dealing with the challenges of yellow- ing and color fading associated with PVC and HIPS (high impact styrene) print media. Such deterioration can have a dramatic effect on the image quality and advertising message. As a result, advertisers and retailers demand ever higher print quality, UV protection and process flexibility for their signage, display, reward cards and point-of-purchase applications. Transilwrap's Transalloy P-300 Multipolymer Alloy delivers a more versatile product than vinyl or styrene and is capable of accepting brilliant graphics through offset litho, UV litho, flexo and digital printing. P-300 has proven to weather and age better than PVC or regular HIPS products. In addition, the specially formulated film carries high tear resistance and excellent impact strength to handle the most demanding applications. P-300 can be die-cut, punched and stapled to meet customer's unique needs—and is a non-PVC product, recyclable under Code 6. MyPRINTResource.com/10013546
