Introducing Veloton: A Cutting-Edge Breakthrough

Developed and manufactured in the UK, Veloton marks the latest innovation from Vivid. "This patented technology is groundbreaking and will be one of the highlights on our stand," said Lewis Evans, Director at Vivid Laminating Technologies. "Not only will this be of interest to new users, but the Veloton is also retrofittable to any of our already installed Veloblade machines, including the Volta and Nexus systems."

Veloton significantly enhances cutting speeds, performing up to ten times faster than previous models. This advancement extends digital cutting capabilities, making it even more efficient and productive for businesses of all scales. “Drupa serves as the perfect stage for introducing new products, and we’re thrilled to unveil the Veloton to visitors,” Lewis added. “While there’s much to explore at our stand at Drupa, we also have a lineup of undisclosed launches later this year.”

Other Exciting Innovations on Display

Among the showcased innovations at Drupa is the VeloTaper, compatible with Vivid’s VeloBlade digital die-cutting systems. This fully automated flatbed taping system applies double-sided tape onto various media and substrates precisely along the X & Y axis, seamlessly integrating with cutting and creasing processes for a product that is ready for assembly and perfectly accurate.

Visitors will also be able to explore the new Zip Core Packaging Suite, a CAD/CAM packaging software designed to optimize every aspect of packaging design from start to finish. This software provides businesses with a wide range of tools that expedite the daily tasks of packaging designers, graphic designers, and salespeople involved in the creation and production of packaging. Produced to enhance the Veloblade Nexus and Veloblade Volta range of digital die-cutting systems, Zip Core Packaging Suite is compatible with both desktop and cloud solutions. The software integrates with Adobe® Illustrator®, allowing users to apply graphics to packaging designs while viewing a 3D model of the structure before production.

Easymount Hybrid: Innovation in Lamination

Visitors will also have the opportunity to explore the Easymount Hybrid, a multi-patented laminator featuring innovative ‘hover’ technology for enhanced ease of use when mounting. This modular system, adaptable to specific requirements, combines a roll-fed laminator and a flatbed applicator, eliminating the need for separate systems and optimizing space and cost savings. The laminator’s patented floating rollers ensure time efficiency and keep substrates in perfect condition.
