“Inkjet is the fastest growing technology used to print corrugated packaging,” Smyth says. “It complements flexo and litho in a corrugated plant by reducing the number of flexo or litho set-ups, letting those presses print the lon- gest runs, thereby boosting the overall effectiveness of the operation. And it opens new opportunities for innova- tion, creating new business streams.” The White Paper looks at the TCO using a cost model to compare the cost of producing corrugated boxes using inkjet post-print, flexo folder-gluer and litho-lam enabling the economic crossover point to be determined. Finn MacDonald, President of Independent II, the first user of the Domino X630i in the United States, remarks, “It takes one to three business days to receive and mount flexo plates, and over 15 days to source and laminate litho sheets. With inkjet, it is easier to produce jobs with multiple versions. There is both demand and plenty of room to educate and inspire the Customer to consider versioning. The visual and functional benefits of versioning and digital flexibility are dynamic to say the least. Customers who benefit from this are ‘customers for life’.” If you are a corrugated converter looking to make your production plant more efficient while also saving you time, cost and reducing waste, download this White Paper at domino-printing.com.
