onto their shipping boxes, they will move to that quickly, as they have in other packaging markets. This technology will be useful to any box maker, whether they are a sheet plant or a fully integrated corrugator.” The DPi print systems use piezo electric, drop on de- mand head technology that incorporates variable drop sizes to provide high quality printing without the need for primers or dryers. DPi has created a “building block” en- gineering approach, supplying print heads in almost any width. The controllers include a touch screen operator in- terface, as well as DPi RIP software and file management to allow the operator easy manipulation of simple pdf art. The initial Baysek /DPi machine will be completed later this summer. It is a one-color color machine that can han-

The original plan was to unveil it at SuperCorrExpo, however, because the show was postponed until 2021, the companies are planning an open house in the Chicago area later this year so that cus- tomers can see the technology live. The manufacture of the machines will be a combined effort with DPi focusing on the print hardware, software and ink, and Baysek focusing on the material handling and sheet transport. The DPi and Baysek engineers collabo- rate closely, Helbach says. “We don’t envision every ma- chine being a complete snow flake, but one of our key val- ue propositions is our willingness and ability to design and build machines that are customized to a board converter’s needs,” Brownell adds. This includes width, speed, num- ber of colors, material handling, etc. “You would probably be amazed at all of the different design configurations that we have looked at so far.” A typical machine will take approximately six months to build. Installations and service will be handled by both companies with the eventual goal to have Baysek handle those services. All customer communication, including sales, will be through Baysek. Initially, the focus will be on the North American market with plans to make the technology available worldwide, according to Helbach. The stand-alone digital printer can feed into any number of converting machines, including Baysek die cutters.
