B3 laminator released by Bagel Systems

Spanish manufacturer, Bagel Systems, has announced the release of the DIGIFAV B3, a double-sided digital laminator engineered for the B3 format.

The DIGIFAV B3, which will be distributed throughout the UK by Duplo UK, boasts reported production rates of up to 2,000 sheets per hour in SRA3. Features include advanced digital hot foil stamping capability. As opposed to traditional methods, the solution integrates a multifunctional digital hot-stamp module.

This system provides a diverse palette of finishes, replicating metallic and holographic finishes while introducing flood varnish spot matt and spot super gloss varnish effects.

The process is driven by thermal oil heated rollers, designed to ensure even heat distribution and temperature retention. It also includes a robust pneumatic pressure system exerting up to 101N/mm of pressure, aiming to guarantee consistent foil adhesion.

Sheet overlap is managed by an intelligent frontal stops registration system while a cooling system and a micro-perf wheel perforates the laminating film, with the aim of ensuring flawless separation at the overlap.

Craig Harry, head of sales at Duplo UK, says: “The DIGIFAV B3 DS is as intuitive as it is innovative. Its user-friendly touch screen interface, combined with features like auto-start and rapid film loading, minimises downtime and maximises creative output.

“Coupled with top-tier safety features including CE compliance and continuous monitoring, this laminator ensures both outstanding performance and a secure working environment. This machine’s blend of speed, precision, and ease of use is exactly what modern printers need to elevate their production and embrace the future of digital printing.”
