Xennia unveils XenJet range

Large-format inkjet developer Xennia has unveiled a modular product range at Ipex to enable press manufacturers to target niche applications without developing a new press from scratch.

The XenJet range includes its Auriga print engines, Aquarius recirculating fluid controllers, Cygnus print software, Centaurus application software and Corvus integration support. Its print engines use printheads from the likes of Xaar and can be configured for both fixed and moving bed to precisions within 20micron.

The plug-in products are on show at Xennia's Ipex stand (9/D300) integrated into two inkjet printers. The Xennia Viridian is aimed at high-speed work for flexible packaging, label, wall coverings and laminating applications and offers a 24m/min print speed.

The Xennia Sapphire is targeted at batch printing work with a flat-bed design offering resolutions in excess of 1,000dpi.

The 14-year-old company also makes inks and is hoping Ipex will bring forth potential OEM partners in "markets where digital printing is relatively new," according to marketing manager Tim Phillips.
