digital front end (DFE) used to drive the press features the new Fiery system platform – Fiery FS500 Pro – enabling quick processing and outstanding colour management at full press speeds. Plus, the Fiery DFE can connect users with EFI IQ™, a robust, comprehensive suite of cloud busi- ness intelligence and management solutions. The new press takes the award-winning, proven high-volume EFI Nozomi capabilities used by packaging businesses worldwide to an even broader swath of the packaging industry. Businesses from independent box plants and start-ups to integrated paper companies will find the EFI Nozomi 14000 LED to be a durable, reliable, sustainable and efficient digital alternative to analogue corrugated production. It delivers energy-efficient produc- tivity, with virtually no volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions and up to 35 percent lower energy consump- tion than flexo printing. The press also significantly reduc- es ink and board waste compared with flexo and litho-lam- ination. Plus, unlike analogue printing methods, it does not require water for cleaning, reducing converters’ costs and their environmental footprint. EFI’s expertise in industrial digital printing, and its broad installed base of single-pass equipment, make it the ide- al consultative technology provider for converters making the move to digital corrugated packaging production. Be- yond equipment installation, EFI closely collaborates with customers through the necessary technology adoption curve, offering a 12-week ramp-up and training program, a one-year warranty, and 24/7 remote and in-person ser- vice maintenance packages. Nozomi 14000 LED users can also take advantage of additional professional services that help them get the very most out of their digital invest- ments, including advanced training in prepress, color man- agement, sales and more.
