Jet Technologies will showcase its digital and analogue label technologies and equipment at the opening of a new state-of-the-art demonstration centre on July 25
The Rosebery centre will give the label industry a central point to inspect a wide range of equipment running live jobs spanning different types of production from the latest Screen digital press to conventional flexo and letterpress processing. It will host the highly anticipated Screen Truepress Jet L350UV, the first in Australia, running live label jobs on the night. Visitors will have the opportunity to compare and contrast the output from the new press.
According to Jack Malki, managing director, Jet Technologies, clients and suppliers are flying into Sydney from all over the region and the world for the opening, which promises to be a major industry event. They include many commercial sheetfed printers who are looking for new opportunities and have expressed interest in putting the Truepress Jet through its paces. The demonstration model of the Truepress Jet for the centre was flown into Sydney from Japan last week.
Malki said the investment in the new centre is “massive. I think the industry will be blown away by what we’ve done here. We have been very well supported by all our colleagues.”
Asahi digitally flexo plate imaging, Screen CTP and a range of label finishing equipment will also be part of the comprehensive showroom display for the label/packaging industry. Product managers will be on hand to demonstrate the features and explain the benefits of the new technology.
There has long been a need for a suitable high-tech centre where the developments impacting label and packaging production can be inspected and discussed. “We’re not just showing digital equipment. We have other exciting innovations including the new Asahi AWP water-wash plate processer as well as the Screen CTP,” he said.
He intends the Jet Technologies centre to become an industry resource open to associations and companies to use for their events.
Malki invites the industry to attend the Grand Opening on July 245 by registering with Lisa Moussa here.
