Inkcups used Fespa as an opportunity to build its presence in Europe.

The company showed its XJET800 UV flatbed inkjet printer for industrial applications, its Helix single-lane cylindrical printer for single runs, and the Double Helix, which is the same concept but with two lanes for double the speed.

A robotic automation option for the Double Helix, which enables the user to continuously print without having to mount and unmount the product itself, is being demonstrated on Inkcups’ stand.

Bobby Grauf, managing director of Europe, said: “We want to push forward and show the European market what a fantastic solution we’ve got, both on the flatbed side for object printing, but also on the cylindrical and helical printing with the machines we’ve got here.”

The business is also looking for distribution partners for countries outside of the biggest European territories that it serves directly, particularly for Africa and the Middle East region.
