drupa Day 2: Presses and Diecutters

Our first stop on Day 2 was a visit to Fujifilm booth where we met fellow Tweeter, Tony Karg (@TonyKarg). It was good to put a face to the tweets and have Tony show us the very interesting new B2 inkjet digital folding carton press based on their Jet Press 720 but this is a press designed specifically for Folding Cartons applications. The Jet Press line uses their own Dimatix print heads and inks, a point Tony makes as a strong point for Fujifilm. The samples I saw were quite nice. The system is slated for a 2013 release…seems to be a trend here…
