Diversified Graphic Machinery ran demonstrations on the Saroglia 740FX foil stamping/embossing and diecutting press in our main booth #211 as well as the Die Co-Ordinator DC-1060 digital die registration system in the tech shop.

The Iijima series high-speed MJ1040-ES was also located in the tech shop area and took part in a joint production project to create a plastic carryall bag. The Iijima MJ1040-ES ran foil stamping on the pre-printed .012 polypropylene plastic sheets at speeds of up to 5100 sheets per hour. The Iijima MJ1040-ES utilized its proprietary technology to then die cut and crease the sheets at speeds of up to 5000 sheets per hour. The project was a tremendous success! Many thanks to all of the other companies that were involved in the project.

Graph Expo/Converting Expo ‘06 at McCormick Place, Chicago
2007 Calendar – Iijima North America/Diversified Graphic Machinery

Once again Diversified Graphic Machinery proudly displayed why the Iijima Series MJ1040ES is undoubtedly the leading high-speed, most Cost Effective foil stamper/embosser & diecutter in the industry.

Live demonstrations were run daily on the Iijima during the recent 4-day Graph Expo show in Chicago.

We are very proud of this calendar as we designed and produced it from conception to the finished product.  The 2-up, pre printed calendars were foil stamped and embossed on the Iijima MJ1040ES during the show.  The Iijima ran quiet, smooth and effortlessly, foil stamping at speeds of up to 7600 sheets per hour!

The Iijima press configuration was setup at the Graph Expo ‘06 show with a first-of-its-kind extended platform that included an in-line Die Co-Ordinator 1060 die registration system and Chase Changer.

The Die Co-Ordinator was used to precisely register both the foil stamping & embossing dies on the honeycomb chase, reducing standard make ready times by 70-80%!  Once each make ready was completed, the honeycomb was then easily slid onto the in-line chase changer that was used for easy loading and unloading of the honeycomb chase into the Iijima press.  The die registration to the printed sheet was spot-on with absolutely no on-press tweaking necessary.

If you didn't have an opportunity to stop by our booth we would be happy to arrange a personalized demonstration of an Iijima Series MJ1040ES in action.
