The NSF22 is a companion digital finisher for the NSPro.  The printed rolls can be passed to the NSF22 if the machines stand alone, or the two machines are connected to form one machine able to convert low cost self adhesive media into any shape, size and quantity of labels needed in one pass roll to finish rolls.  The NSF22 is also equipped with digital web steering so that the printed media is kept in perfect position for accurate cutting throughout the run. The NSF22 includes a laminating station so that the label web/ label images can be over laminated with a protective laminate for extreme durability applications. The NSF22 includes a digital drag blade label cutter station for intricate shapes or so that its possible to quickly print and cut different shaped labels without needing any die tools. The NSF22 also includes a high speed semi-rotary to register die-cut station with magnetic cylinder so when high finishing speeds are needed for longer runs the labels can be cut with a quick to fit conventional flexible die. The NSF22 includes automated waste matrix removal before razor slitting to lanes and roll winding to finished rolls.  The flexible die can include linear cut blades as well as label cut impressions so that labels are finished and slit with a high accuracy of salvage edge negating the need for razor slitting. 

SIMPLE PC CONTROL SCREEN

The NSPro digital press uses a MS Windows driver located on PC within the unit and operated from and integrated control screen and keyboard / mouse station mounted on the left side of the NSPro on a convenient swing out platform.  The operating screen provides for simple click controls to initiate the printing of labels and for entering the print quantity as well as displaying ink usage that can be used for accurate label ink cost per printed label.

SOFTWARE CHOICE

Its possible to use a wide choice of software loaded to the NSPro for label printing and we find our customer often have a 'favorite' label print program the use each day.  Of course label artwork is usually originated by an artist with skills to use a powerful design or drawing package like Adobe Illustrator / CS6,  InDesign or Corel Draw.  These packages can be run on the NSPro but its more likely the design software will be kept in the designers room and images made ready for printing on the NSPro using a much simpler program. We have used free programs like Adobe Reader to display and print labels on the NSPro.  Some of our customers use our supported BarTender program to print labels that can be completely variable like for serial numbering, adding expiry dates, batch numbers and other data on top of background images as well as printing labels from a product list even merging variable data into each label type from a spreadsheet, database or simple text file.  For advanced use we support and can bundle the Xitron Navigator RIP that includes colour adjustment / correction ability.
