Introduction to Matrix Metallic
Specifically developed for applying digital foil and special effects, to both textured and non-textured stocks, the Matrix Metallic range is the solution you’ve been looking for to get the best quality consistent digital foiling finishes across a variety of stocks.
A Specialist in Digital Foiling
Designed primarily for adding digital foil to prints, the most noticeable difference between the Matrix Metallic and Matrix ranges is the rollers. The texture of the roller on the Metallic is designed to get deep into the pitfalls of most coated and uncoated stocks, giving you the most consistent finish across the board.
Laminating Credentials
Although specialising in digital foiling and special effects, these systems are also capable of high-quality lamination. You’ll achieve the same level of results that you can with the rest of the Matrix range, but at a slightly slower rate.
Pneumatic Pressure Control
Unique pressure control that ensures your rollers apply the perfect pressure to give you a consistent and perfect finish, no matter the job.
Fingertip Control
Available in English, French, German, Spanish and Italian. The exclusive patented multi-lingual control panel is user-friendly and easy to get to grips with.
Anti-curl Technology
Our unique anti-curl technology, in sync with the control panel, ensures that whatever you laminate – a menu, a book cover or a sheet of business cards – comes out flat with no curl or uplift.
Single-Sided Digital Foiling & Special Effects
Systems that add special effects during the finishing process such as; foiling and spot UV give prints that extra ‘wow’ factor. These finishes are typically used on packaging, business cards, stationery, book covers, wedding stationery and high end, bespoke print.
Single-Sided Lamination
A single-side laminator is the perfect solution for high-quality lamination of business cards, flyers, book covers, greetings cards and much more.
Giving print the added wow factor. Our portfolio of Aqua Aura foils come in a diverse selection of eye-catching colours, suitable for every occasion. As well as colourful foils, you can also easily and simply add special effects such as Spot-UV and 3D to really set your print apart.
Available in either digital or litho, Boss OPP films give your prints a premium look and feel. The wide variety of textures and finishes means we can provide you with the most suitable laminate for any job.
Omni Flow Feeder
The Matrix Omni-Flow Deep Pile Feeders are designed to be easy to install, set-up and operate. Two versions are available the Omni-Flow 370 (SRA3) and the Omni-Flow 460 (SRA2).
The Auto-Feeders can be fitted to the full pneumatic range of Matrix MX-370 and MX-530 Laminating Systems and completely automate your print finishing workflow.
Prints can be loaded ‘on the run’ for non-stop operation. Aimed at the digital/commercial markets, short-to-mid run business cards, menus, book covers, bespoke prints and more can all be finished faster.
Feed prints for lamination, foiling & spot UV effects, the Matrix becomes a truly automated print finishing system.
Take-Up Unit
An optional take-up unit that sits at the rear of the Matrix. It works in perfect synchronisation with the Matrix and neatly collects spare film and foil enabling you to easily dispose of waste.
Flatbook
Flatbook enables Perfect Bound and PUR Bound book covers to be laminated both sides and stay perfectly flat.
Curl on book covers is a significant problem in the printing industry, mainly overcome by using expensive specialist films. The Flatbook system enables you to use standard OPP film, on all types of stock.
It cuts out a channel of film as the Matrix laminates, leaving the inside spine unlaminated. This allows the adhesive to stick to the spine and not the laminate. The result is a perfectly bound flat book.
Film Slitter
Designed to make your life simple. Rather than changing rolls of film for smaller width jobs than the film that is loaded, the slitter will cut down the film to whatever size you require.
