Test Drive the Phoenix
Kirk-Rudy (Booth 1771) is again demonstrating the Phoenix at its booth in the Mailing & Fulfillment Pavilion.
Kirk-Rudy (Booth 1771) is again demonstrating the Phoenix, one of the fastest production inkjet printing systems in the world, at its booth in the Mailing & Fulfillment Pavilion. The latest model is capable of producing high quality output in excess of 40,000 pieces per hour.
The Phoenix is a piezo inkjet system optimized by Kirk-Rudy’s engineers and capable of running aqueous, solvent and UV inks. The latest technological advances in UV printing has allowed Kirk-Rudy to develop the Phoenix to print on virtually any substrate including high gloss coated, varnish and even plastics.
In a recent case study featuring 1st Class Mailing Service in Kennesaw, Georgia, owner Al Kessler stated, “I have never seen anything run like the Phoenix”. He replaced two thermal inkjet technology (TIJ) machines that use HP ink cartridges with the Phoenix. This resulted in reduced labor and increased production. And because overall ink costs are lower with the Phoenix’s bulk ink supply compared to using ink cartridges, he noticed a significant savings with ink costs. Within six months they purchased another Phoenix and are producing more volume of mail with a faster turnaround than ever before.
Modular by design, the Phoenix can be added to existing inserting lines or brought together with folders, bump turns, turn-overs and tabbing equipment producing a complete end-to-end solution.
