FUJIFILM to present latest automation system at drupa 2024

FUJIFILM’s Automation System has been designed to support the growth of its customers’ printing businesses and is compatible with current and upcoming technologies in the Acuity Ultra Hybrid range. The new and innovative system will be unpacked at drupa 2024 at Meese Düsseldorf, scheduled from May 28 – June 7. With this system, FUJIFILM will give its customers the option to upgrade their high end Acuity Hybrid wide format machines with a full solution. The robotics unit allows a single operator to run the machine and facilitates a pallet-to-pallet process for rigid substrates.

The robust system, which was designed to support and speed up production lines, this new FUJIFILM Automation System comprises a loading option to feed rigid substrates onto the printer and an unloading system to unload material from printer to pallet. It can be set to deliver full or half automation. The system has four lanes and allows four rows of material to be printed simultaneously. Each lane has two suction arms to pick up materials and a vacuum that can be adjusted to carry a variety of substrates and surfaces with different weights.
