Artcoater Auto The Missing Link in Inkjet Disc Printing

September 2003 - Verity Systems is now shipping the Artcoater Auto, the worlds only desktop, automated coating station for inkjet printed discs. Following on from the successful launch of the manual Artcoater, this much awaited automatic version allows users to coat up to 250 discs per session and is the missing link for professional CD or DVD duplicators and printers.

The Artcoater Auto coating process starts with inkjet printed discs being loaded into the input hopper. The internal robotics then pick and place each disc individually from the top of the hopper onto the waiting turntable. The protective lacquer is evenly applied and the surface of the disc is cured with U.V. light. Finished discs are lifted from the turntable and placed onto the output spindle.

Coating the surface of discs with a protective lacquer not only protects them from moisture, sunlight and everyday handling it also enhances and enriches the colours printed onto them. What’s more, discs can be packaged straight away as the Artcoater Auto’s U.V. curing systems ensures that they dry instantly, no more smudging or smearing.

The Artcoater Auto is designed to be clean and environmentally friendly, and this combined with its unique and compact extraction, means that virtually zero emissions are produced.
