Digital Expo: Follow the digital trail
One of the biggest benefits of visiting a show like Digital Expo is the opportunity to see new technology working live. Following industry research the organiser has introduced a new live digital print demonstration trail. Visitors can plan their route around the show, attending a variety of print, pre-press and finishing demonstrations.
Hewlett-Packard, Roland DG, Hybrid, Leopold, Genix, Colourgen, Spandex and DuPont are just some of the companies taking part in this new initiative.
Hewlett-Packard will be showing how 104in wide, 720 by 720dpi graphics can be produced at 30m2/hr on the DesignJet 10000 UV mild solvent machine. With three years print fade-resistant (without lamination) and the ability for dual roll, double-sided and mesh printing, this demonstration will suit printers, exhibition graphic suppliers and sign makers.
The Hybrid team will demonstrate workflow using die-cut, photo quality stickers as an example. See how producing short run, high quality, personalised products with a unique finish that’s only possible with this selection of kit provides users with a USP to boost profits.
Colourgen, Spandex and DuPont will show how to print on almost any rigid substrate, including doors and glass, with their ColorSpan 9840uv, Gerber Solara UV2 and Cromaprint 22UV respectively. Ideal for applications including PoP graphics to truck-side curtains, billboards and theatre back drops, UV machines should attract significant attention.
Other features include: the Adobe and Corel workshops; a second live demonstration trail dedicated to sign making; and a programme of free digital print seminars.
