The Argos F400 cold UV coating machine – a flat coating system that can be used in hand-fed, automatic and inline mode to digital presess – will be showcased by Renz at IPEX 2017, along with other systems.

The Argos F400 can run at up to 45m/min or 6000 A3 sheets/hr and handle a maximum paper width of 400mm. There is an optional feeder/stacker and optional coating pre-heating. There are also IR Lamps if needed.

Iain Bullock, Renz UK managing director said: ‘This machine has been the ‘go to’ coating machine for all the main digital players over the last couple of years, working beautifully behind the big digital presses, notably Indigo. We are delighted to be able to present it to the UK market for the first time.’

Renz will also show the new Bindomatic Accel Cube and Accel Ultra thermal cover binding machines with improved loading capacity and processing time. The A4 portrait binder handles 1 to 360 sheets of 80gsm paper and document spine widths from 1.5 to 36mm.

Other products being demonstrated will include the Punch 500 heavy-duty punch, AP 300 Compact automated punch and MOBI 500 semi-automated ring wire binding machine for books and calendars. The Renz desktop DTP 340 semi-automated punch and ECL 360 electric Ring Wire closing machine will complete the line up.

‘IPEX, has always been a good show for Renz, even the ExCel cycle, which was effectively a finishing show in the end, bought some nice orders our way,’ commented Mr Bullock. ‘There is some big kit at IPEX 2017 and that will attract potential customers.’

IPEX 2017, October 31 to November 3 2017, NEC, Birmingham.
