In the blister lid foil printing segment the number and duration of changeovers are becoming ever more critical cost factors – especially against the backdrop of continuously shrinking production runs. At this year's Interpack (2017) Atlantic Zeiser is addressing this issue by showcasing a cost-effective solution. DIGILINE Blister executes variable print orders reliably and to a high quality standard – without long setup times and production standstills.

Its performance profile is based on a high-quality, low-maintenance digital printing system with high-performance UV-curable inks. To start a new print job on the DIGILINE Blister, the operator selects a recipe and thus loads a new PDF. The changeover is accomplished within just two minutes.

Print templates are changed exclusively by software through recipe selection – without any format parts at all.

The UV-A lamps for the DIGILINE Blister's DoD inkjet printing system are based on LED technology and last more than ten times longer than the UV-C curing lamps used in flexography – and significantly reduce energy costs overall. Thanks to their contactless inkjets, the service life of the print heads is practically unlimited. In addition, the cost of sourcing flexo print mats and the associated input for their installation and removal are eliminated.

DIGILINE Blister is a genuine all-in-one system. Images and codes are easily uploaded to the system without any additional software or an external computer, which greatly simplifies both integration and operation. DIGILINE Blister is also compatible with Atlantic Zeiser's serialization software MEDTRACKER, which can also be used as a data management platform. DIGILINE Blister is not only available as an offline system, but can also be implemented as an inline or nearline solution.
