Graph Expo: Finishing for Hybrid Workflows

Among the products on display at the Duplo USA booth was the UD-300 on-demand cutting system. At 3,000 sheets/hour, the UD-300 is ideally suited for carton folding, label applications, doorknob hangers, favor boxes and tags, among other products.

Two other new cutters were unveiled by MBM Corp. at the show: the Triumph 4860 automatic programmable cutter and the Aerocut G2 digital printing finishing system. The G2 boasts faster production speeds and increased capacity, plus it features an improved touchscreen interface, increased memory and cross-perfing capability. The G2 cuts, slits, creases, scores and perforates a variety of jobs, including brochures, business cards, post cards and CD jackets. Stocks including laminated UV coated and large-format (up to 63˝) can be creased and scored without cracking, even with full-bleed coverage. The Triumph 4860 is an 18-7⁄8˝ cutter with two-step blade activation bars that feature separate trigger points for the blade and clamp.
