Intec expands ColorFlare range with CF350, CF750 models

Intec Printing Solutions has introduced the ColorFlare CF350 and CF750 as part of the ColorFlare range of lamination and foiling equipment. Recently unveiled at The Print Show UK and Print 18, the ColorFlare CF350 and CF750 are scheduled to begin shipping this month.

The ColorFlares are compact dual laminator and foil flaring solutions designed to offer commercial printers, marketers and designers in-house decorative effects. Primarily designed for short run, on-demand digital applications as well as lamination for traditional litho output, the company explains the ColorFlares can open up new opportunities for the production of greetings cards, vouchers, security print, packaging, book jackets and labels. The CF350 offers the flexibility of laminating and foiling, and boasts softer feed rollers for foiling trickier items such as envelopes without any detrimental effects from the pressure required to achieve a foil finish. The CF750 offers three different set-up options: As a desktop solution, with a stand and with the new dual feed roller assembly so lamination and foil rolls can be loaded together for exact material alignment and quicker production set. Coupled with the ColorSplash colour digital printer, the ColorFlare can foil flare directly onto printed toner and also onto lamination films to create special effects, the company explains.

Canadian printing companies can purchase Intec solutions from its U.S. distribution centre in Florida.
