Packaging Solutions

Konica Minolta Business Solutions (UK) has unveiled the Jetvarnish 3D Web 400, a new digital embellishment solution designed to help label converters accelerate time to market, enhance brand impact, and deliver greater value to their customers. By enabling premium finishes in a single, efficient digital workflow, the system supports faster product launches, more agile design changes, and stronger shelf differentiation for brand owners.

Available now, the device is the latest generation of roll to roll digital embellishment presses from MGI Digital Technology. It enables single pass spot UV varnishing and hot foil stamping, using a 100% digital process, on a wide range of substrates, and for offset, flexo, toner or inkjet printing. It meets the most varied requirements for short, medium, and long runs by enhancing labels with digital spot UV varnish and hot foil stamping in fixed or variable data, flat or 3D.

From a brand owner’s perspective, this supports faster, more agile product launches while enhancing shelf impact and overall brand perception. Consistent, high quality digital embellishment enables brands to respond quickly to market demands, introduce new designs with confidence, and differentiate more effectively at the point of sale. The result is reduced time to market and labels that strengthen brand recognition and perceived value, without the constraints of traditional finishing processes.

With its modular concept, the Jetvarnish 3D Web 400 is available in six configurations – with one or two print engines, with or without hot foil unit, and with or without an in line semi-rotary die cutting unit – to suit all needs and budgets. Controlled by a simple and intuitive interface that can be replicated on a digital table, the press enables operators to perform complex finishing operations that cannot be achieved with conventional technologies. Its MGI Connect software suite integrates cost calculation, predictive maintenance, and a realistic visualisation of the embellishment effect.

With its 100% digital integration and unified workflow, and real time monitoring, the Jetvarnish can deliver the benefits of Factory 5.0 for optimum quality productivity. 

Toshi Uemura, head of industrial print business, Konica Minolta Business Solutions Europe, said: ‘With this groundbreaking technology that enables single pass spot UV varnishing and hot foil stamping using a 100% digital process, the Jetvarnish 3D Web 400 is another example of how we help printers, converters and brand owners to rethink possibilities and maximise efficiencies. The launch is a manifestation of our dedication to pioneering digital transformation, fostering resilience, and contributing to the sustainability of the printing industry, especially as the era of print Industry 5.0 comes to life.’
