Spectrum Digital Labels has received delivery of its Dantex PicoJet 330 UV inkjet digital press.
Engineers from Dantex Digital, part of the Dantex Group, had the press powered up by the end of the first day, and fully operational shortly after.
“The Dantex Digital team is brilliant. They all know exactly their roles in the installation process and their training is second to none. The whole process was textbook from start to finish, and I’m absolutely bowled over by the whole experience,” says John Parker, joint founder and managing director. “We currently have £1 million worth of business ready to hit the press, so we are delighted to take delivery. We have 100% confidence in the press and its ability to process anything we throw at it - from 25 micron film to paper and card with excellent results.”
Both Parker and co-founder Ian Tregay saw the PicoJet 330 being put through its paces in testing at the Dantex Digital site in Kettering, where it produced an actual job for one of Spectrum’s customers. “High quality, high volume digital label production....look no further than PicoJet,” states Parker. “With a speed of 75 m/m, we ran one million labels, 27,000 linear meters of substrate, all in one shift for our customer Anglian Chemical Hand Sanitiser.”
Spectrum Digital Labels was established in Norfolk in June. During their lengthy careers in the print industry, both Parker and Tregay developed a strong working relationship with Dantex, which helped provide the initial impetus for PicoJet 330 investment. The final decision to opt for the PicoJet 330 came after both founders had looked at other manufacturers ahead of the investment.
PicoJet 330 is a highly productive UV digital inkjet press, with ultra-high-speed production capable of producing more than nine million linear meters of printed labels per year.
Dantex’s director of operations, Andy Abbott, says, “Both John and Ian know this industry extremely well, and it’s great that they have so much confidence in Dantex to deliver them an exceptional machine as the PicoJet 330. Spectrum is certainly powered by digital now and we wish them every success for the future.”
