Domino is set to install its first digital label printing press in India. The press which has been shipped to a customer in West India, is a 7-color press which will be powered by Esko digital front-end with color management and variable printing suite.

Ajay Raorane, assistant vice president – digital printing solutions at Domino Printech India, while speaking at the Labelexpo Europe show, did not disclose the name of the company where the N610i will be installed, but he did say that it will be installed in the next two months.

The N610i can print at a speed of up to 70 m/min and has the capability of achieving up to 92% of the Pantone gamut, said Raorane. “We have taken our time, because for Domino it is important to bring value to the customer by hand-holding their digital journey, making them successful. We believe that if our customers are successful, we will be successful.”

The advantage Domino brings to the table is the productivity and quality. Raorane said, the speed and print quality are achieved because there are less moving parts in the machine. “When you put the two together, the throughput of the Domino N610i and the process improvements, you start to crease a revenue capacity. That’s our goal, and will remain with every Domino installation.”
