Designed to deliver precision, versatility and speed, the A B Graphic International (ABG) InkJet is ideal for a wide range of applications, including variable data printing, multi-layer labels, security features, barcodes and pharmaceutical labelling. The new single colour print bar module is engineered for seamless integration across ABG’s own finishing systems, including the Digicon, Converter, SRI and B5010 Booklet Machine, as well as third-party equipment.
Among its standout features are 360 or 720dpi resolution, tool-less application for reduced operating costs and compatibility across multiple web widths. It also offers a wasteless setup process, ensuring maximum efficiency and sustainability in production.
A key advantage of the new system is its ability to print directly onto adhesive layers, opening up new creative and functional possibilities for label converters. Combined with ABG’s fleyeVision inspection system, the InkJet delivers exceptional print accuracy and consistent high-resolution output, all within a compact, easily integrated module.
The same advanced InkJet technology also powers the ABG Braille module, a complementary solution that applies high-build varnish to create braille text and warning triangles in accordance with recognised industry standards. By using varnishes of different viscosities, the system can also produce tactile embellishments on labels. With no cleaning required during varnish changes, users benefit from faster changeovers, minimal waste, and improved operational uptime.
Both ABG InkJet and ABG Braille are manufactured at ABG’s German facility in Baesweiler, forming part of the company’s growing InkJet range. Further innovations in this series are already in development, with new modules set to launch in 2026.
‘As we continue to advance our inkjet capabilities here in Baesweiler, our focus has been on developing a fully modular print technology that can be used across the entire ABG portfolio,’ said Michael Leidgschwendner, managing director of ABG GmbH and leader of the Inkjet project. ‘The new InkJet range represents a major step forward, giving customers a versatile, high-performance solution that integrates seamlessly with any ABG system, as well as third-party equipment.’
‘And by offering everything from one supplier, we’re enabling a more streamlined, efficient and future-proof approach to production, while opening up exciting new possibilities in variable data, security, multi-layer and functional printing.’
