Xeikon has unveiled the next evolution of its Panther inkjet technology with the world premiere of the Xeikon PX3300HD, a new 1200 dpi digital press, at drupa 2024.

Developed for high quality labels, the five-colour machine offers a 330mm printing width and speeds up to 70 m/min, even when printing with high opacity white.

In addition, Xeikon PX3300HD utilises a newly developed ink series, PX-Cure LED HD, to ensure perfect curing, while A small footprint machine, Xeikon PX3300HD produces high durability, full-colour labels for diverse markets, covering up to 88 per cent of Pantone colours within Delta E 2 (rising to 94 per cent within Delta E 3). To meet the specific requirements of the higher resolution engine, Xeikon has developed new PX-Cure LED HD inks.

The new inks match the sustainability benefits of the recently introduced PantherCure UV LED series for Xeikon 600-dpi inkjet presses, including significant savings in energy consumption, instant warm up for more agile operation, and ten times longer lamp life compared to traditional UV arc lamps, resulting in lower waste, supporting sustainability targets for converters.
