Focusing on UV LED technologies, the company is bringing its Fighter F-Belt and Bombardier B-Belt to Nürtingen as a demonstration of maximum integration. After the recent participation in Metpack and Ligna 2023, a new and important international appointment for NEOS. Accepting the invitation of IST INTECH, one of its UV LED lamp suppliers and event organizer, NEOS will participate in the eleventh edition of IST UV-Days, an initiative scheduled for July 4-6, 2023 in Nürtingen, Germany.
As the world’s leading supplier of UV curing technology for graphic arts and industrial applications using ultraviolet (UV) light, the IST METZ Group has believed in this show since its inception and has supported it to become an event of absolute international importance dedicated to UV ARC and UV LED technologies. Born in 2002, in fact, the event has evolved over the years, involving visitors from all over the world interested in finding an opportunity to meet and exchange through presentations, workshops and demonstrations. This edition will host 55 exhibitors, including NEOS and its industrial inkjet printers, and more than 1,000 visitors from 41 countries are expected. NEOS and its team will be present with two cutting-edge solutions, already presented in recent months at Ligna and Metpack: the Fighter F-BELT and the Bombardier B-BELT.
The Italian company is excited to showcase to a new audience its undisputed wealth of experience in the development, design and manufacture of digital inkjet printers adaptable to numerous production needs and even more efficient thanks to the use of fully customized inks and an integrated vision system for fast and timely detection of missing nozzles.
An integrated vision system for fast and timely compensation of nozzle loss and banding control. Ongoing research work that will also be highlighted with dedicated expertise in the unique NEOS color management system and the NEOS color management system.
NEOS color management system and the set of software tools created to ensure color consistency across devices. At the open house, the focus will be on the Neos Fighter F-BELT. Compatible with water-based and UV LED inks and with a wide range of accessories for drying and crosslinking inks and surface treatments. The Neos Fighter is a digital press of the highest quality, with speeds up to 120 m/min and configurations of up to 12 color / pinning slots. Ideal for rigid or semi-rigid materials with a thickness of up to 50 mm by virtue of the suction belt conveyor type, the machine guarantees the maximum possible flexibility, ultra-reliability, reduced preparation times for printing with the possibility of queuing several projects simultaneously and running them in sequence. This particular type of printer is able to satisfy different printing applications on metal, plastic surfaces in the decoration industry, book printing, advertising and much more, being able to work on multiple substrates such as plastic films, melamine panels, aluminum, paper and wood.
The other solution on display, the Bombardier B-BELT module, is characterized by its flexibility, quality, speed and modularity. and modularity. Thanks to the use of state-of-the-art printheads with software and electronics, all manufactured at NEOS, excellent print quality is guaranteed. With a production speed of up to 120 m/min (with the possibility of increasing to 150 m/min), it offers printing fronts from 600 to 2250 mm and a resolution of 600DPI to 1200DPI.
Two extremely versatile solutions that can be installed on different production lines thanks to a highly specialized team accustomed to designing with every need and every device in mind. An approach and high technological level worthy of the most modern production lines will allow the Modena-based company to stand out on the international scene for the quality of its products and for the advantages of digital in terms of flexibility of use, energy, material and time savings, characteristics that are maximized in all NEOS technological solutions. In addition, there will be moments dedicated to the open house and thus to the IST INTECH UV LED curing system, whose features have been accentuated and enhanced by the NEOS team by integrating it into their NEOS printing platform.
