NEW Onyx 30 UV/AQ Coating System

ENRICH YOUR PRINTS

with the ONYX 30 UV/AQ Spot Coating & Priming System

Kompac has announced the release of the ONYX 30, a high production priming and coating system for the application of UV, Aqueous, Primer/Sapphire, and specialty coatings to a wide variety of substrates. The nearline finishing unit provides commercial printers and in-plant facilities a flexible, cost-effective way to prime, flood, and spot coat sheets up to 22” x 32” (560mm x 800mm) wide at speeds up to 6000 sheets per hour. The first install of the ONYX 30 took place in August with a US-based prepress & print shop with multiple HP Indigo Digital Presses in operation.

Compatible with most large offset and digital presses, the ONYX 30’s coating capabilities make it easy to not only flood coat to protect the printed surface of the substrate, but enhance the quality of printed output with spot coating embellishments such as textured, scratch-off, Soft Touch, satin, and more.

Kompac’s patented Vac Cleaning System allows users to change between coatings with ease. It greatly reduces changeover time, allowing operators to clean the equipment and switch coatings in less than 2 minutes. As a result, users can go from running UV gloss for flood coating, and switch over to the optional chambered anilox system to run aqueous soft-touch coating in just moments.

Designed to fit the needs of a variety of production environments, the ONYX 30 coating system includes an Automatic Stream Feeder, which provides high throughput and accurate registration of every sheet for spot and spot-not coating. It handles a wide variety of stock weights and substrates ranging from 3pt to 30pt (60 to 600g/m2), and lateral pallet movement allows the coating system to accept pallets and dollies directly from the digital or offset press. Also included is the Komapc Stacker, which automatically descends and jobs, creating the perfect stack every time – allowing for quicker turnaround for bindery and further finishing.

 

Available Options & Specifications

The ONYX 30’s modular design allows it to be configured with optional equipment to increase production and overall capabilities. These include:

  • Chambered Anilox Coating System - Makes it easy to apply Soft Touch and UV Matte coating

  • Die-Cutting, Perfing, or Creasing – This magnetic die system increases versatility for pre and post-press finishing processes and increases short run capabilities when not spot coating

  • IR Dryer (or Duplex IR Dryers) - Quickly dries aqueous coatings and primers with short wave, high-intensity bulbs and instant on/off capability. Hot air knives aide in the removal of moisture and decrease drying times.

NEW FROM KOMPAC: Chambered Anilox for Soft Touch & Matte Coatings

Why Only Run One Coating, When You Can Run Many?

Users can now easily run a full spectrum of coatings including: high gloss, gloss, semi gloss, satin, matte, soft touch and more - all on one machine! The NEW Kompac Chambered Anilox Roller System makes it easy to run more difficult-to-run coatings like matte and soft touch. Changeover between systems takes minutes! 

For Quality Soft Touch and Matte Coating Finishes

The Kompac Chambered Anilox Roller System allows users to easily apply soft touch and matte coatings to sheets or web. The air tight handling of coating runs aqueous, matte and soft touch coating without drying and breaking down.

  • Chambered anilox co-exists with standard coating unit

  • Ideal for HP Indigo, Xerox, Canon, Ricoh, Konica Minolta, Xeikon, Offset, and more!

  • Available for the EZ Koat 15+, 20+ and 30+ flood coating systems in web or cut sheet configuration

  • Available for the Kwik Finish 32 flood and spot coating system

  • Can be retrofitted into existing EZ Koat Plus models

A full spectrum of finishes. Made easy.

The standard system operates with no coating recirculation and two-minute coating cleanup. To apply a more complex finish, simply engage the anilox system, where air tight liquid handling allows for the application of matte and soft touch coatings with ease. External coating feed and return lines circulate coating directly from the coating bucket, with no internal tanks or lines.

Proprietary servo-driven technology delivers a quality finish, with the same compact footprint and low maintenance operation Kompac has always offered. System can be field installed to most existing EZ Koat models.
