Bunting® Magnetics Company has a new addition to its' world-leading lineup of cylinders, The HoLo which is a magnetic embossing cylinder. This new product is specifically designed for use with holographic film shims or plates. For this revolutionary technology, Bunting® has a patent pending in the United States of America and Bunting® is pursuing international patents as well.
"Holographic printing is growing at a very healthy rate," Bob Van Horn, Bunting's Printing Products Group Leader stated. " We feel that this groundbreaking new product is perfectly suited to aid a growing industry."
The HoLo magnetic embossing cylinder is designed to magnetically hold holographic films or plates and perform at temperatures in excess of 400° degrees. It is particularly well suited for narrow and wide film applications from which a wide range of films are produced within the industry. During recent customer use, there was a 50% production increase with the HoLo and it allowed for quicker changes to take place.
"According to recent news reports, the worldwide surface relief hologram industry was valued at approximately $2 billion," stated Charles Whitt, Bunting's Director of Marketing. "We feel that any printing organization focused on producing film for key market sectors such as security print, brand protection, packaging, retail and promotion and illustration would experience superior production efficiencies by using The HoLo."
