Kingsway first in the world with Digicon-Lite 3
Lincolnshire-based Kingsway Printers has just taken delivery of the world’s first Digicon-Lite 3, AB Graphic’s new entry level digital finishing machine.
The majority of Kingsways’ finishing equipment for both its flexographic and digital operations has been supplied by ABG over the years. Since adding another HP digital press earlier this year, the company once again sought the advice and expertise of ABG for further machinery to complement its existing Digicon Series 2.
‘We considered a Digicon Series 3 but liked the concept of the new Digicon Lite with reduced foot print and lower capital cost. The Digicon Lite had these advantages whilst still giving the same speed curve available to the larger Digicon,’ said Richard Pullen, managing director.
‘Since installation we have been very impressed with the speed and efficiency of this machine. We are delighted to be the first customer to take delivery of the new Digicon Lite and look forward to continuing our excellent relationship with ABG International.’
Launched at Labelexpo 2015, the Digicon-Lite 3 is the new addition to the Digicon family. Available to run inline it also offers a number of options synonymous with the Digicon Series 3.
‘We’ve been very pleased with the orders already received for our new Digicon-Lite 3,’ said Tony Bell, sales director. ‘With space being at a premium for some manufacturers, this compact digital finishing solution is ideal for those wanting something smaller.’
