The DSCOOP 8 HP Indigo user event in the US has seen the unveiling by Scodix of new metallic printing capability, along with the company’s new S75 B2-size press.

Enabling the creation of metallic colours in a selective digital process, the technology will allow print service providers (PSPs) to bring even more print enhancements in house. It was launched in the US market, using its inkjet technology and PolySENSE clear polymer, in a demonstration for HP graphic arts press owners at the event in Nashville, Tennessee.

CEO Kobi Bar said, ‘The Scodix Metallic look and feel can only be created by using Scodix S digital enhancement presses with the Scodix RSP Technology (Rotate, Scale and Position). By utilising two CCD cameras and Scodix IP image algorithm, every image can be manipulated (scaling the image on X and Y axes, shifting and rotating it when required), ensuring perfect quality and precise print registration and the delivery of perfect metallic colours.’

The eco-friendly Scodix S series of presses allow PSPs and their customers to print a larger variety of enhancements in house, supporting job runs of any size, on a wide option of materials, both digital and offset. The Scodix Sense, Rainbow Station, Metallic, as well as the Barcode and Inkjet Braille, are enhancements that increase the value of printed items. The S75 sheet and image size supports the HP Indigo and Screen Trupress SX digital B2 size presses, with the ability to accept materials up to 530×750 mm.
