MELBOURNE, FL, USA – MGI Digital Graphic Technology and Konica Minolta are honored to announce the JETVARNISH 3DS will be shown to the Chinese print industry for the first time at the 5th All in Print China in Shanghai from November 14th-17th.

The 5th All in Print China will be held in the Shanghai New International Expo Center November 14th-17th. Drawing in over 55,000 visitors in 2011, All in Print China highlights the achievements and trends in China’s printing industry. This year’s expo will focus on new technology and products for the global printing industry to bring new opportunities and growth.

Digital printing solutions provider Konica Minolta will stir up a creative storm at this year’s show with its aesthetic feeling and appearance at Booth # W1A331. With a strong products series and comprehensive value-added solutions, Konica Minolta will lead audiences through a sea of creativity to enjoy the brilliant modern technology of a superior printing experience. Along this journey, attendees will be able to experience a fresh, new look at the printing experience with the JETVARNISH 3DS.

The newest addition to the JETvarnish Digital Spot UV Coating line, the JETVARNISH 3DS digital spot UV 3D coater is the first accomplishment of MGI’s strategic alliance with Konica Minolta. The JETVARNISH 3DS was designed by MGI exclusively for the Konica Minolta sales network; the third generation JETvarnish has all the tactile effects and advantages of the original JETvarnish 3D with only half the size.

Designed primarily for the digital print market, the JETVARNISH 3DS will make the popular 3D tactile varnish finish available to all digital printers in the market today printing on widths up to 36 cm (14 inches). The JETVARNISH 3DS has speeds up to 3,000 A4 sheets per hour in flat mode (2D) and over 1,000 A4 sheets per hour in 3D mode, and the capability to varnish up to 100 μm for 3D raised effects. With this ability to turn regular printed jobs into high margin spot UV jobs, or even higher margin 3D embossed jobs, the JETVARNISH 3DS is sure to impress.
