Mark Andy Launches Monochrome Digital Print Bar for Modular VDP Integration

Thursday 15. April 2021 - Mark Andy, Inc. has launched Digital Plus Variable (DPV), a simple and cost-effective inkjet module that adds single-color variable data to virtually any new or existing digital, flexo, or finishing machine without compromising speed.

Digital Plus Variable enables affordable, high-speed, single-color VDP capabilities
With advanced printhead technology and a robust design, DPV is the ideal variable data solution for a broad range of industrial and commercial printing applications, such as labels, forms, direct mail, tickets, gaming, promotions, tags, and pharmaceutical packaging.
“Digital Plus Variable is flexible, durable, and operator-friendly. The system utilizes the latest 30 & 40 kHz print module for high-speed data transfer and high-quality inkjet printheads that deliver 600 dpi cross-web print resolution and 300 to 600 dpi in process direction, with speeds up to 500 fpm,” says Scott Warhover, Vice-President Engineering, Mark Andy.
The monochrome digital print bar offers adjustable drop size and shaving to ensure premier barcode readability, while internal heaters minimize the impact of external temperature changes to guarantee superior printing. An integrated head cap and automated service mode reduce printhead maintenance, increasing pressroom efficiency.
“The DPV is a straightforward press upgrade that is a benefit to any pressroom because it is an inexpensive low-risk solution with high return. Total cost of production is nearly 90% less than the standard cartridge-based offerings in the market, and the system is also highly dependable, allowing converters to integrate fast variable data to their production for a fraction of the cost,” concludes Warhover.
Available for immediate order, DPV joins Mark Andy’s digital portfolio, including the new Digital Series iQ, Digital Pro and Digital Series HD.
