already in stock and we look forward to see- ing how our customers utilise them as both accent colours and full wraps,” says Leon Watson, General Manager Spandex UK.


Vivid to debut new products


Vivid Laminating will debut three new tech- nologies at a UK show in October.


Matrix Laminators: Single-sided Laminator Vivid’s best-selling Matrix OPP Film Lami- nating System can add specialist finishing ef- fects to print, such as foiling, spot UV-style effects and holographic finishes.


Sales Director Richard Marlow said:


“The Matrix doesn’t require special dies to create these new effects. It’s achievable due to the extra pressure from the pneumatic rollers. The process to create such effects on-demand still works by using heat transfer technology, but at a fraction of the cost of producing individual dies for each job. For those with a Pneumatic Matrix already in-


house, being able to offer these stunning ef- fects to customers offers huge cost savings and even a new source of revenue”. The Leicestershire-based firm will also


demonstrate their new Feeder for the Matrix 530 Systems. “The all-new Feeder uses patented underfed technology for prints, speeding up production and finishing times” says Richard. “It’s a completely modular sys- tem and can retrofit to the existing Matrix”.


Easymount Air Along with new Matrix features, Vivid will also showcase the new Easymount Air to the UK print industry. Vivid’s Technical Manager Gavin Ward


said: “The Easymount Air is a revolutionary product in the wide format lamination and mounting market. The patented technology uses one of the most advanced concepts ever seen in a wide format laminator. Pneu- matic air pressure controls the laminating rollers, allowing you to mount and laminate with incredible accuracy and speed.” The pneumatic air allows the roller to


adjust to the exact thickness and pressure required, giving faster production times. The new technology also allows the roller to float down, to make sure Foamex and Correx boards aren’t crushed. When the rollers achieve the correct board thickness, they can be locked in place to keep the required gap, making board feeding more accurate.
