Italian label specialist Impronta Digitale has expanded its digital inkjet capacity with the installation of a Screen Truepress Label 350UV SAI S, which is the 100th sold since the introduction of the SAI series in 2020.
Founded in 2013 by Linda and her brother Ludovico Picello, Impronta Digitale is based out of Mirano, on the outskirts of Venice. It services a wide range of Italian businesses, from wine producers to pharmaceuticals.
A Screen customer since its early days, the new five-colour SAI S model is Impronta Digitale’s third Screen UV inkjet digital label press.
Ms Picello said, ‘The acquisition of Screen machines fits our strategy of staying innovative to continuously enhance our competitiveness in this challenging market.
‘What drove us to invest in digital presses is their ability to start production at any moment, and produce labels of consistent quality and brilliance on every print run, while remaining competitive in the market. Our SAI machines operate 10 hours a day, in two shifts, five days a week, with an average production length of 1000 meters per job – handling print runs from 30 to 10,000 metres. Investing in Screen’s technology was the right choice to allow us to grow and improve over time.’
Specifically of its latest investment, she said, ‘This new press opens doors to new markets, increases our production capacity, and guarantees that our clients receive labels of consistent quality quickly and efficiently.’
Impronta Digitale also uses Screen’s Equios software for managing print jobs, enabling what it describes as an industry 4.0-compliant workflow. Equios is configured to run seamlessly in the background, providing the machine with rapid and automated print data. In addition, the Screen Trust system allows print operators to obtain all analytical information needed to effectively manage production times and resources.
