Compact Foilers manufactures a wide range of machines for producing special effects in the offset, digital and flexographic printing industry. The popular CF1000 and CF1000PM machines for inline cold foiling and Cast and Cure™ work with any offset press. These machines, as standard, include three foil-saving features, rapid set-up, complete safety and total web tension control. The new CF1400FLX is an offline web-fed machine, which uses a single-color flexographic printing station to apply the adhesive or varnish in register to pre-printed material. The foil or film then is transferred to the paper, UV cured and removed. In addition to cold foil and Cast and Cure™, this machine also can be used for creating other special varnish effects and single-color printing. Compact Foilers also has worked extensively with Scodix to create the world’s first fully digital cold foil module to work inline with its Ultra press. These modules are manufactured exclusively for Scodix.
