Print businesses’ challenges, the need for differentiation, and portfolio expansion through non-traditional applications - these were the main topics of our recent webinar hosted on 20 November. The event marks the second in a series dedicated to the Digital Pro platform, following “Digital Pro: A New Path to Profitability” webinar, also available on-demand.
With fall seasonal goods being replaced with peppermint and eggnog winter variations, it’s a reminder that 2020 is coming to a close. Most would say "good riddance," but many in the printing industry have seen continued success and even strong growth. If your business acquired new capital equipment this year, be sure you're capitalizing on all of the tax deductions for which you qualify.
Mark Andy’s Digital Press Division is excited to announce that is now providing global distribution for the complete GMG product range of color management and proofing software and media.
Mark Andy has released a suite of new features on our digital press line, Digital Pro. The production digital machine launched in August 2019 with Digital Pro 1, a roll to roll solution and Digital Pro 3, an inline digital hybrid press with a single flexo station and die cutting. This product line was built to tackle short run work, and is now capable of additional converting functionalities, reinforcing the our commitment to profitable digital printing.
The health and safety of our employees and customers are always our highest priority. We are thankful that even in these uncertain times that we are still able to be doing everything we can to support our customers, even if that means getting a little creative in the Mark Andy Demo Centers in both Warsaw and St. Louis.
As digital printing technology is more widely adapted across the board in pressrooms, knowledge gaps can occur more often than with tried and true technology, like flexo printing. Thankfully for converters, Mark Andy has a dedicated staff of engineers, press operators, installation technicians, field service technicians and technical phone support to serve our digital presses in the field.
Specialized Marking Systems, an Ontario based converter has upgraded its Digital One to the new Mark Andy Digital Pro engine to increase capacity and expand its overall digital label business. Over a year post-installation of the Digital One, the choice to upgrade to the new engine was made with the success of the Digital Pro predecessor in mind.
A Digital Series HD was installed at Cypress Multigraphics in September 2018
One of the most influential label companies in North America has realized success with a Mark Andy Digital Series HD. Cypress Multigraphics, located in Tinley Park, Illinois purchased the solution in the summer of 2018 and took delivery in late September, directly following Labelexpo Americas.
Market shifts towards seasonal goods, versioning, VDP, personalization, and more have brand owners demanding short run work and faster lead times. This leaves many converters having to outsource short run work, producing them inefficiently on full production flexo presses, or losing business in general. All sounding too familiar?
Imagine buying a brand-new car and never taking the time to get its oil changed, ultimately leading to the entire engine shutting down and having to be replaced. Something as simple and easy as getting a car inspected by a mechanic every few months keeps it running for hundreds of thousands of miles.
One of the UK’s leading converter of pharmaceutical, healthcare, and medical labels has chosen a Mark Andy Digital One press as part of a major investment program in technology and a new extension at its headquarters in Irvine, Scotland.
ITW Labels, a labeling and branding solutions expert based out of St. Charles, Missouri, USA, with four production facilities across North America, has invested in a Mark Andy Digital Series hybrid press to support its labels and packaging production.
Three label converters joined Label & Narrow Web for a webinar to discuss their journey into digital hybrid printing. Adcraft Labels, Blair Labeling, and Diversified Labeling Solutions (DLS) took time to talk through their digital journey, and explain why they chose a particular digital hybrid solution.
Brand strategy is driving SKU proliferation due to differentiation, market testing, versioning, VDP, personalization, and the list goes on. As brands are driving the shift for shorter run sizes and faster lead times, it’s clear that digital printing plays a key role in today’s label and package printing environment.
Mark Andy, a leader in narrow-web printing and converting solutions, will host an Open House at its European headquarters in Warsaw, Poland, 5-7 April, 2017.
Every digital journey has a different beginning; a different reason or “pain” that prompts the search for a new hybrid pressroom addition.
