Durst Group’s P5 SMP—the all new Super Multi-Pass solution is a printing solution distinguished by exceptional versatility and performance. The maximum production capacity reaches five million square meters per year. The P5 SMP is a hybrid LED multi-pass inkjet system with a printing width of 3.5 meters, designed for both board and roll printing. Based on the proven P5 platform, it provides a powerful alternative to conventional single-pass systems. In the Lienz Demo Center, visitors now experiences live how quickly a complete material change can be performed on the P5 SMP.
P5 SMP targets the sign & display, POP/POS, corrugated packaging and display, as well as industrial décor printing markets. It handles both roll and board materials up to 70 mm thick. Currently, two formats can be loaded simultaneously; in its final stage, up to four formats will be possible. Additionally, the ‘Automated Corrugated System’ ensures high production safety, especially in corrugated printing. The material is continuously and automatically kept flat, preventing edge lifting and reliably avoiding material collisions. Depending on the application, the P5 SMP can control up to ten colour channels – for example, to extend the colour gamut with process colours (orange and violet), use light colours for smoother gradients, or apply white as a base for overprinting. The inks are cured using LED technology, and print quality can be adjusted through resolution levels of 700×1200 dpi and 900×1200dpi.
