GFI Innovations to Debut Ink Dispensing System

Published: September 10, 2014

GURNEE, IL | GFI Innovations will debut its AccuBlend-LV Ink Dispensing System for low viscous flexo inks at Labelexpo Americas 2014, Booth 547. 

The system is said to be user-friendly and to offer a host of benefits to improve control over the process, schedules, and workflow of ink dispensing. With a two-stage dispense valve design, system features a dozen integrated 5-gal vessels. Fully configurable so source containers such as drums can be added to satisfy demand, the design reportedly makes refilling simple. Since the design is fully modular, it can also be configured to accommodate 55-gal drum batch sizes.

New COLORBOOK dispenser software with touch screen controls drives this machine. Nearly all dispenser and data management functions are contained on one screen, and navigation, the tracking of lot numbers, and batch color correction are functions made easier to maintain, especially when using work-off inks, company says.

“Much like our dispensing systems for offset litho printing, AccuBlend-LV is a very durable machine that is built to last a long time,” says John Borkovec, VP of sales and marketing. “You can change the dispense sequence at the time of dispensing ink, and indicators on the printed batch ticket labels make it easy to see the dispense values, work-off inks, and lot numbers. All of the inventory details can be found on one screen and creating returned inventory items is very easy to do. It’s just about as intuitive as your cell phone because it is all icon-driven.”
