Ua loaʻa iā Konica Minolta ka nui o nā kaomi hou ma PRINTING United 2024, alakaʻi ʻia e ka AccurioLabel 400.

"ʻO AccurioLabel 400 kā mākou mea paʻi hou loa, e hāʻawi ana i ke koho o ke keʻokeʻo, ʻoiai ʻo kā mākou AccurioLabel 230 he 4-color home run," wahi a Frank Mallozzi, pelekikena, ʻoihana a me nā paʻi hana no Konica Minolta. "Hoʻopili mākou me GM a hāʻawi i kekahi mau koho maikaʻi loa me nā mea hoʻonani. Hoʻokumu ʻia ia i ka toner, paʻi ma 1200 dpi a makemake nā mea kūʻai aku. Loaʻa iā mākou ma kahi o 1,600 mau ʻāpana i hoʻokomo ʻia a ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi ma mua o 50% ka māhele mākeke ma ia wahi.

"Ke hele nei mākou ma hope o ka mea kūʻai aku nāna e hoʻopuka i kā lākou hana hōʻailona kikohoʻe pōkole a kōkua iā lākou e lawe mai i ka hale," i hoʻohui ai ʻo Mallozzi. "Paʻi ia ma nā ʻano mea āpau, a ke huli nei mākou i ka mākeke hoʻololi."

Ua hōʻike ʻo Konica Minolta i kāna AccurioJet 3DW400 ma Labelexpo, a ʻōlelo ʻo ia he maikaʻi loa ka pane.

"ʻO ka AccurioJet 3DW400 ka mea mua o kāna ʻano e hana i nā mea āpau i hoʻokahi pass, me ka varnish a me ka foil," wahi a Mallozzi. Ua hookipa maikai ia ma ka makeke; Ma nā wahi a pau āu e hele ai, pono ʻoe e hana multi-pass a hoʻopau kēia i kēlā, hoʻomaikaʻi i ka huahana a hoʻopau i nā hewa. Ke makemake nei mākou e kūkulu i ka ʻenehana e hāʻawi i ka automation a me ka hoʻoponopono hewa a hoʻolilo iā ia e like me ka holo ʻana i kahi kope kope, a hauʻoli loa wau i kā mākou mea.

"Ua maikaʻi ka hōʻike - hauʻoli nui mākou i ko mākou komo ʻana," wahi a Mallozzi. "He nui nā mea a mākou e hana ai e kiʻi i nā mea kūʻai aku ma ʻaneʻi a ua hana maikaʻi kā mākou hui me ia."

Ua kuhikuhi ʻo Deborah Hutchinson, ka luna o ka hoʻomohala ʻoihana a me ka hāʻawi ʻana, inkjet, ʻAmelika ʻĀkau no Agfa, ua loaʻa maoli ka manaʻo o ka automation, ʻoiai ʻo ia ka wahi wela o ka hoihoi i kēia manawa.

"Ke ho'āʻo nei nā kānaka e hōʻemi i ke kumukūʻai o ka hana a me ka hana," wahi a Hutchinson. "Hoʻopau ia i ka hana grunt a loaʻa i nā limahana e hana i kekahi mau hana hoihoi a maikaʻi hoʻi."

ʻO kahi laʻana, he robots ʻo Agfa ma kāna Tauro a me ka Grizzly, a ua hoʻokomo pū i ka mea hoʻoili kaʻa ma ka Grizzly, nāna e ʻohi i nā pepa, hoʻopaʻa inoa, paʻi a hoʻopaʻa i nā pepa i paʻi ʻia.

Ua ʻike ʻo Hutchinson ua neʻe ka Tauro i kahi hoʻonohonoho 7-color, e hoʻololi ana i nā pastel muted, me ka cyan māmā a me ka magenta māmā, e hoʻokō i nā pono o nā mea kūʻai.

"Ke nānā nei mākou i ka versatility a me ka maʻalahi i ka paʻi - makemake nā mea hoʻololi e hiki ke hele mai ka ʻōwili i ka paʻa i ka wā e komo ai kahi hana wela," wahi a Hutchinson. “Hoʻokumu ʻia ka flexo roll i loko o ka Tauro a hoʻoneʻe wale ʻoe i ka papaʻaina no nā pepa. Hoʻonui kēia i ka ROI o nā mea kūʻai aku a me ka wikiwiki i ka mākeke me kā lākou mau hana paʻi. Ke hoʻāʻo nei mākou e kōkua i kā mākou mea kūʻai aku e hoʻohaʻahaʻa i kā lākou kumukūʻai o ka paʻi.

Ma waena o kāna mau hoʻolauna ʻē aʻe, lawe ʻo Agfa i ka Condor i ka mākeke ʻAmelika ʻAmelika. Hāʻawi ka Condor i ka ʻōwili 5 mika akā hiki ke holo ʻelua a ʻekolu paha i luna. He mea hou ka Jeti Bronco, e hāʻawi ana i kahi ala ulu no nā mea kūʻai aku ma waena o kahi pae komo a me kahi ākea kiʻekiʻe, e like me ka Tauro.

"Ua maikaʻi loa ka hōʻike," wahi a Hutchinson. “ʻO ke kolu kēia o ka lā a loaʻa nā kānaka ma ʻaneʻi.

Ua lanakila 'o Grizzly i ka makana Pinnacle no ka Material Handling, a ua lanakila pū ka inika i ka makana Pinnacle. Loaʻa i kā mākou inika kahi wili puaʻa maikaʻi loa a me ka ukana puaʻa kiʻekiʻe, no laila he haʻahaʻa haʻahaʻa ka inika a ʻaʻole hoʻohana nui i ka inika.
