Digital printing

Digital printing is not only gaining ground in the graphics sector but also in many industrial applications. As your process partner, THIEME will develop the best possible solution for your specific applications. The combination of digital printing with proven THIEME machine technology allows obtaining an optimized and high quality digital printing machine, which is fully tailored to your needs.

THIEME inkjet machines

The digital printing process makes it quick and easy to reproduce patterns or decorations on a substrate. The basis of our inkjet printing machines is made up of tried-and-tested components developed by Thieme, such as the printing table and the substrate transport device. This is a highly flexible machine concept that allows access to all process parameters. For example, these machines feature a system for activating different vacuum zones, making it quick and easy to change formats.

Different levels of automation are possible: in addition to manual loading and unloading of the printing table, it is possible to increase the machine's level of automation to make it a fully automatic printing line. The choice of substrates is equally vast. In fact, the multi-pass system enables printing on a wide range of materials, including paper, cardboard, film, glass, metal and plastic.
