In today's competitive print market, standing out requires more than vibrant colours and sharp graphics. Customers are increasingly seeking premium finishes, tactile effects, and specialty embellishments that elevate the perceived value of printed materials. Traditionally, adding spot UV varnish and specialty coatings required complex setups, registration marks, outsourced production, and minimum order quantities that often made short-run jobs impractical.
With the Komodo UV9060i and AccuSPOT Digital Embellishment technology, premium embellishment is now faster, more accessible, and more profitable than ever before.
Print Beyond White: Add Value, Add Texture, Add Profit
AccuSPOT Digital Embellishment allows print providers to transform standard digital prints into high-impact products with stunning visual and tactile effects. Utilizing advanced vision positioning technology and high-definition camera recognition, the system automatically detects artwork and accurately applies spot varnish without requiring registration marks.
This breakthrough workflow dramatically simplifies setup while making short-run spot UV production both cost-effective and efficient.
Whether producing a single prototype or a small batch of premium marketing materials, print shops can now deliver luxury finishes on demand while reducing turnaround times and outsourcing costs.
Advanced Vision Recognition Eliminates Registration Marks
One of the most significant features of the Komodo UV9060i is its intelligent visual positioning technology.
Unlike traditional spot UV workflows that rely on printed registration marks for alignment, the Komodo UV9060i uses high-resolution camera to scan and recognize printed artwork directly. The system automatically identifies the design and positions the embellishments precisely where they belong.
Key Benefits Include:
- Camera scan and artwork recognition
- Intelligent visual positioning technology
- No registration marks required
- Fast and simplified job setup
- Reduced material waste
- Improved production flexibility
- Consistent accuracy across multiple jobs
The result is a streamlined production process that allows operators to move from printed sheet to finished embellished product in just minutes.
Ideal for Short-Run and On-Demand Production
Short-run production has become increasingly important as businesses demand personalized products, versioned marketing materials, and faster turnaround times.
Traditional embellishment methods often require expensive setup costs that make smaller quantities difficult to justify. AccuSPOT removes these barriers by enabling digital spot UV production without the costs and delays associated with conventional processes.
Print providers can now:
- Produce premium business cards on demand
- Create prototype packaging for client approvals
