Expanding the range of modules in its GT360 and Gemini360 series, Cartes has developed an exclusive embellishing technology – Jet D-Screen– that allows converters to deposit a thicker layer of ink. According to the company, this was previously impossible to achieve with inkjet technologies.
The Jet D-Screen (JDS) digital unit allows users to create multi-layer effects, such as spot coating, complex tactile raise effects and braille printing, as well as very detailed foil and metallic doming transferring.
In just one step, it is possible to personalize and enhance labels, with no tooling costs, instantaneous startup and no material waste. The work of the operator has been simplified extensively, allowing the selection of options from already predefined settings, as well as the choice of the material to be used, to achieve immediate production in the JDS unit without waste.
Materials that are printed with the JDS system do not need to be varnished or treated before, as these processes may distort the “texture” of the material. Just as with all Cartes technologies, the JDS is modular and adapts to the requirements of Industry 4.0.
