Tandem Perfector Offers Two-Sided Printing and Coating

The Diamond 3000TP Tandem Perfector precisely meets printers’ needs, including the ability to print and coat the front and reverse sides of a sheet in one pass. The double-coater version of the Tandem Perfector features tower coaters before and after the Translink unit. The Translink is a three-cylinder transfer system that passes backside printed sheets to the front-side units without flipping the sheets. The Tandem Perfector can be equipped to accommodate aqueous-over-aqueous coatings, UV and aqueous coatings on either side of printed sheets or UV-over-UV applications. The coating configurations and available drying packages provide great flexibility in the job mix, such as spot UV coatings, UV inks or hybrid UV inks.
