Agfa and partners target industrial inkjet market.(NARROW WEB EUROPE)(Brief Article)

Advances in inkjet technology now offer viable alternatives to current digital color printing methods. A major step was when Agfa Graphic Systems acquired Dotrix in 2004 to further develop its color inkjet presses (which it insisted on naming "the.factory"). Mark Andy incorporates a Dotrix module into the DT2000, a 13" flexo press for processing and printing variable data content in up to six colors. Now Agfa plans to become a leader in the industrial inkjet printing market through development and manufacturing partnerships with Thieme, Mutoh Europe and Xaar.
