For the second year running, Domino Digital Printing Solutions has won an award at the annual European Digital Press (EDP) Association Awards. This time their win was for the Domino K630i book block solution, which won the Book Printing Solution category award at the EDP Awards ceremony, which took place on May 10th during Fespa. Bryan Palphreyman, Product Manager for the Domino K630i, was presented with the award and certificate by Michael Seidl, Managing Director at Print & Publishing Media Group in Vienna. The EDP Association represents 20 member magazines across Europe, covering 26 countries and reaching more than half a million readers in Europe. The prestigious awards, which attracted more than 150 submissions, recognise innovation and quality in digital print, honouring the best new developments in print production tools, software developments, substrates, inks, materials and finishing systems. Officially launched at Hunkeler Innovation Days in February 2017, the modular solution was demonstrated converting paper rolls into high quality book blocks utilising Domino’s single engine duplex K630i ink jet printing press integrated with Hunkeler web processing equipment. “Within the book printing sector, there is a demand for flexible technology that not only facilitates high production output and is geared for rapid job change, but also minimises manning requirements and material waste,” says Bryan Palphreyman. “The compact size and small footprint of the Domino K630i press gives it the required flexibility and modularity to be easily integrated into existing web processing and finishing equipment, while its variable production speeds of up to 150m/min meets the high productivity required for printing in the book sector.”
