At FESPA 2017, Fujifilm showcased a technology preview of a new modular flatbed production system using “Fujifilm Inkjet Technology”. Rather than showcase the company’s existing flatbed and roll-fed production systems, which are all available for demo at multiple locations around Europe, Fujifilm gave a glimpse of the future by showing an exciting, brand new, B1 format platform that should spark the interest of print service providers in a number of markets.
At drupa 2016, Fujifilm launched the “Fujifilm Inkjet Technology” brand which comprises a unique combination of printheads, aqueous and UV inks, and image optimisation technologies, all Fujifilm owned and developed. A combination of these technologies is at the heart of many of the industry’s leading inkjet production systems, including the Jet Press 720S and Heidelberg Primefire 106 in the 
commercial and packaging markets, and the Onset X in the wide format market. Fujifilm is also applying these technologies in new, ground-breaking system developments of its own.
The new flatbed production system to be previewed at FESPA 2017 has no like-for-like equivalent on the market and will fill a much needed gap. Built on UV technology, this B1 format device will offer ultra-high print quality and high productivity at an accessible price point. It will appeal to a broad range of printers, from commercial to industrial, and will be able to accommodate a huge range of substrates, including plastics, acrylics, glass and sheet metal.
Visitors interested in printers from Fujifilm’s established wide format range such as the Acuity or Inca Digital Onset X series, will also be well catered for, with experts on hand to answer any questions they might have.
Says Steve Wood, Marketing Manager, Fujifilm Graphic Systems: “We look forward to welcoming visitors to the Fujifilm Stand at FESPA 2017 to demonstrate how Fujifilm’s unrivalled inkjet technology is driving the industry forward. The development of our new B1 format inkjet platform is the latest example of this technology in action and offers a clear illustration of how Fujifilm is pushing the boundaries in digital print and helping printers across all sectors of the industry to transform and future-proof their businesses.”
