Plockmatic Industrial, part of Plockmatic Group and Argos Solutions joint R&D effort results in the launch Plockmatic AQUA, the first Aqueous IR/Thermal-Air drying coater.

-We have seen the need to develop a special IR/Thermal-Air drying system in order to connect it to the new Plockmatic Fully Automatic Head module, states Tony Michiels, CEO & Founder of Argos Solutions. The most innovative thing is that there is no expensive Anylox / Chamber Doctor blade used to have a perfect lay-flat of the water-based varnish, delivered by Actega Headquarters. -We have been very positive surprised about the superior quality of the fullyautomatic head, this technology developed by Argos for Plockmatic Industrial,repeats Tony, -This is a state of the art machine which doesn’t need a complicated and expensive cleaning unit which is needed with Anylox systems used by other technology designs.

-This makes our Plockmatic Industrial line-up in flat coaters complete, says Tommy Segelberg, Director, Plockmatic Industrial department. –We did start our collaboration in 2018 with the launch of the Plockmatic HD LED for B3 or B2 format inline systems and shortly followed by the launch of a Plockmatic COLD UV system for B3 and B2 format with a closed lamp system and now with the new Plockmatic AQUA that was the only missing part in the product portfolio we achieve a big step forward. And the fact that Plockmatic Industrial now can offer the flat coaters portfolio in both B3 and B2 versions for Inline and Offline configurations that is unique. It is in everybody’s interest to offer a more environment friendly and cost-effective solution for sheet enhancement and to protect digital printed products.

The Plockmatic flat coaters is available for immediate sales release.

Looking Back on a Decade of Print Finishing Success

Argos Solutions 10th Anniversary Celebration

Argos Solutions is proud to announce its 10th anniversary as an international, leading finishing equipment manufacturer.

“Prior to 2010, there were only some coating competitors: mostly in Asia.”, Tony Michiels, Argos’ Solutions founder, said. In the role of a pioneer in this fast moving business sector, Tony Michiels was behind the first revolutionary European Coating System which changed the lives of numerous professional printers by developping a unique Cold UV lamp system Coater.

Since then, Argos has never stopped investing in research and development of high speed coaters, and is now proud to be a growing industry player in Europe and North America, with distributors in UK, USA, Germany and Sweden. “With export sales exceeding 95 percent of total sales, Argos is principally active abroad”, Tony Michiels declared.

“Argos Solutions has experienced exceptional growth and development over the past years,” said Tony Michiels. “Moving forward, our focus will remain on providing a high-quality product paired with an exceptional client experience.”

Argos Coaters’ with key characteristics including sustainability, reliability and cost-efficiency, are gaining immense popularity and recognition in the printing sector. Argos makes a point of honour to seek the best possible finishing solutions combining state-of-the-art components such as LED technology for low energy consumption and Cold UV Lamp System as a best alternative to plastic lamination. These remarkable features make it possible to maximise line productivity, reduce maintenance and make significant savings on the running costs. As a matter of fact, Argos customers state that the Argos Coaters are having the lowest cost per page for consumables, ten times less than any other roller coater in the market.

The figures speak for themselves: 180 coaters sold to all four corners of the world, 14 full-time employees in the European and the US manufacturing plant, and a turnover that has more than doubled since 2014. And it does not stop here now Argos made a joint adventure with Plockmatic in Sweden in order to have a worldwide coverage in sales and support.

Thank you to everyone who has contributed to these 10 years of success of Argos Solutions.

A toast to many more to come…

Renz UK to launch new machinery at Label&Print

Packaging Innovations 2019. Renz UK is using the Birmingham show to launch the Argos Solutions F400 Cold UV Coating Machine into the UK packaging market.

Argos Solutions’ LED UV Coating Results

It provides a great cost effective and eco alternative to plastic laminating a range of printed packaging applications.

The aim of Argos Solutions is to reduce the use of non-biodegradable plastic lamination. Thousands of tons of lamination film is disposed of every year. The UV coating machines from Argos Solutions provide a complete plastic free solution.

Instead of lamination the UV coating machine provides a very thin layer of liquid coating to protect and enhance the printed sheet. The UV coating recommended for use with the Argos UV coaters is a non-harmful liquid varnish made in Europe containing no VOC (volatile organic compound) emissions.
