Global Imaging Adds Distribution

Global Imaging, a leading distributor of grand format digital printing equipment, is pleased to announce the U.S. distribution of the Digitech TruFire UV flatbed printer.

The TruFire is a dedicated flatbed that excels in ink adhesion and  productivity, even with some of the most difficult substrates, such as styrene, coroplast and aluminum blanks.

Patric Coldewey, President of Digitech, stated “Greg and his team at Global Imaging have a reputation for valuing their customers and creating long-term relationships. We feel this is in line with our own approach to our partners. We’re excited to join forces with Global and offer this industry the partnership of two established and reputable U.S. companies who can offer and support a printer that is made in America.”

The Digitech TruFire will complement Global Imaging’s already superior UV product offerings with its price-to-performance ratio, starting at under $250,000. This will open new market opportunities for both Global Imaging
and its clients.

Greg Lamb, CEO of Global Imaging, says “We’ve had great respect for the work that Patric Coldewey and Digitech have done in the industry. We look forward to the partnership of our companies and our ability to offer the market something that it has been missing up to this point.”

The printer will be available for demonstration at Global Imaging’s Workflow Studio in Louisville, Colorado in the fall of 2019.

Global Imaging, a leading distributor of grand format digital printing equipment, is pleased to announce their relationship with Summa, to resell the Summa L3214 laser cutting machine that was recently announced at Fespa 2019.

Textile printing has been growing in the U.S. for almost a decade and has become the first choice for producing exhibit, trade show and POP displays. The need for a dedicated device that finishes textiles with a sealed edge has become part of the demand of the textile market. Until now, textile finishing has been done with additional cutting machinery or simple manual labor, using scissors or a hot knife. Neither of these solutions are clean, fast, cost effective or scalable.

Summa has more than 20 years’ experience in textile finishing and a proven track record of cutting some of the most difficult materials that can be thrown at them, such as 4-way stretch Spandex. As they moved into grand format it was a natural fit for Global’s textile product portfolio.

Greg Lamb, CEO of Global Imaging, says “When we curate new products for our portfolio, we consider how the products will affect the top-line revenue or bottom-line profits for our customer’s businesses. We felt that because
of the cleanliness, the speed and the dedication to fabric, this product could dramatically lower the cost of textile finishing for our customers.”

The cutter will be available for demonstration at Global Imaging’s Workflow Studio in Louisville, Colorado in the fall of 2019.
