• Eliminates more than 80% of operator setup time spent on registration processes and reduces waste
• Allow quick and seamless integration within job workflows with simple, automatic “scan and register” setup process
• Supports rapid equipment amortization with increased throughput, faster job completion, and greater productivity
• Removes unnecessary operator wage costs & paper make-ready waste associated with analog setup processes
The new MGI AIS system uses the artificial intelligence to create an automatic varnish and hot foil registration for inkjet heads over the preprinted roll. The exclusive and patented AIS system runs at more than 5,000 billion operations per second using print image and inkjet synchronization algorithms. Without operator intervention or a decrease in feeding speed, it makes corrections and adjustments for any defects generated by the original offset or digital printing run and any lamination process. It is fully compatible with Variable Data Printing (VDP) jobs.
SPOT VARNISH EDITOR
It is an easy-to-use tool designed by MGI for editing job enhancements on the fly. It eliminates wasted time going back and forth between the production and prepress departments. The JETvarnish 3D Web operator can do job file modifications right from the production floor. This tool is designed for a high
production work environment and improves operational workflows between production and prepress
departments.
INTEGRATED PRODUCTION COST CALCULATOR
Based on the job file, the MGI AIS system can forecast cost calculators down to the penny – information that has never been available with traditional spot coating technologies. This tool allows you to calculate and predict accurate production costs, helping to make reliable and precise job estimates.
FLEXIBLE SETTINGS MANAGEMENT
The JETvarnish 3D Web software interface can digitally manage and change all the machine settings – including print speed, drying & curing systems, iFOIL speed, pressure, and temperature.
Software Suite and Touchscreen Interface
The dynamically growing digital label market expects more flexibility, shorter runs and shorter time to market. Based on the worldwide success of the award-winning JETvarnish/iFOIL technology, MGI is bringing greater customization and personalisation to the decoration label and flexible packaging markets with the new JETvarnish 3D Web
.MGI has specifically developed the JETvarnish 3D Web to deliver exceptional value on the label market.
The JETvarnish 3D Web allows label printers to go digital for Spot UV Coating and Embossed Hot Foiling without dies, screens or expensive tooling. Using a 100% digital process, the MGI solution dramatically reduces make-ready times, eliminates waste and offers true variable data enhancement with personalized foil option on every label produced.
DIE CUTTING UNIT
• Optional semi-rotary die cutting unit to finish labels in-line.
• 2 slitter knives as standard (10 max)
• Gap master system as option
IFOIL TECHNOLOGY
• Adds luxurious value and profit margins to self-adhesive labels and flexible packagings.
• Foils from 100 up to 420 mm (3.93’’ to 16.53’’) width.
• Metallic, holographic and coloured markets foils can be used.
• 100% digital method eliminates all tooling required with conventional processes.
WIDE COMPATIBILITY
• The JETvarnish 3D Web is compatible with the overall web-to-web printing technologies available on the
market. It includes narrow web digital presses – such as Konica Minolta®, HP Indigo®, Xeikon®, Epson®,
Durst®, EFI®, – and any traditional offset or flexo narrow web presses.
• Coated and uncoated materials, synthetics, paper and light cardboard (ex. beverage, cosmetics & healthcare label stocks, wine stock) compatibility.
SPOT UV COATING & EMBOSSING STATION
• MGI’s exclusive inkjet technology with precise piezo (drop-on-demand) applications.
• Relief height independently adjustable
• Switch from one job to another with no equipment cleaning required.
• High gloss varnish from 7 to 232 μm.
The JETvarnish 3D Web is designed for both 2D (flat)/3D Embossed Spot Coating over flexo, offset or digital web-fed printed output. Hot Foiling can be added with glamorous metallic foil to embellish
self-adhesive labels. A digitally finished label by the MGI solution provides eyecatching sensory enhancements and dramatic tactile sensations that brand owners are looking for, to distinguish their products in the marketplace.
JETvarnish 3D Web thanks to its labels die-cutting unit and roll slitter knifes offers a complete solution for an optimized production. MGI has been developing, constantly for years, with a concern to respond as closely as possible to the needs of its customers, new innovations and solutions.
A FLEXIBLE COMBINATION OF 3 IN-LINE CURING & DRYING SYSTEMS
• LED to freeze the varnish and the 3D relief.
• Infrared lamps for 2D jobs to spread the varnish evenly over the label.
• UV lamp to cure and fully polymerize the varnish.
• A cooling roll for application on film and PE shrink sleeve is included.
ROLL UNWINDER & REWINDER
• Web width from 100 mm up to 420 mm (3.93’’ to 16.53’’)
• 3 inch diameter air shaft
• Reels up to 850 mm/33.4’’ diameter
• Automatic reel diameter calculation
• Automatic tension adjustment
• Web guide for ±15mm / 0.6’’ lateral correction
• Splicing table.
FULL ROTARY FLEXO UV STATION
• Inline Rotary Flexo UV station for full varnishing or priming.
• Makes UV varnish and hot foiling finishing possible on many substrates including uncoated materials.

It gives enhanced UV protection with lower energy consumption than traditional UV systems with no make-ready, no plates (offset), no screens (silkscreen), no dies (hot foiling), no waste (electricity, paper, varnish and time).
It does not require cleaning steps between jobs (automatic inkjet head cleaning system). Reduction of consumables (elimination of many plastics).
