SAN DIEGO, Sept. 21, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- One year after the launch of DuraLink, Memjet announced the company has signed new OEM partners, formed alliances with strategic primer and integrator companies and hired new personnel to support the demand from OEM partners around the globe. Memjet and its OEM partners will be showcasing these developments at Labelexpo Americas Sept. 25?27 in Rosemont, IL and PRINT 18 Sept. 30?Oct. 2 in Chicago.
The DuraLink Platform combines long-life printheads, pigment ink, and flexible modules to give OEM partners a fast, easy way to develop solutions for high-volume commercial, packaging and industrial printing markets.
"We have met our goal of bringing quality, speed, and affordability to high-volume markets," says Len Lauer, chief executive officer at Memjet.
"We've been in talks with dozens of OEM partners. These conversations are ongoing, and we are proud to announce four exciting partnerships. Further, we have made inroads with partnerships around primer developments and integrators that extends the economic value of DuraLink. Finally, we have hired a seasoned industry professional who is uniquely qualified to expand the DuraLink technology in the EMEA region. The Memjet team has accomplished a great deal in one year, and I look forward to even more success in the years ahead," Lauer concludes.
New DuraLink Partnerships
Two partners will be announcing DuraLink solutions at Labelexpo.
International Partners
Both Basch and UP Group will be showcasing their new DuraLink powered solutions at the All in Print China exhibition on Oct 24-27 in Shanghai, China.
"The feedback from OEMs tells us that DuraLink addresses a need in the marketplace that has not been met," says Eric Owen, general manager at Memjet. "OEMs who serve the high-volume label, packaging and commercial print markets now have the technology they need to create a new breed of printing solutions designed specifically for the markets they serve."
New Primer Development
Memjet formed a partnership with Michelman to develop a primer that enables printing on coated offset stock, as well as packaging materials such as folding carton and coated corrugated. That primer enables providers to use their existing offset stock for their inkjet print jobs, adding greater flexibility and economic benefits.
"At the very start, we set out to develop an industry-wide solution that allows for unprecedented quality at significantly lower cost of ownership," explains Lisa DiGate, Michelman's Vice President, Printing & Packaging, "Michelman is investing heavily to enable digital printing. This development with Memjet is incredibly exciting, opening up new spaces and applications, globally, and across industries."
DuraLink Integrator Partnerships
DuraLink integrator partners are actively investigating how they can integrate DuraLink technology to create unique digital print solutions for Memjet OEMs or for end customers. DuraLink integrators have experienced engineering and development resources and extensive experience in integrating digital inkjet technology with different media transports and finishing solutions.
New EMEA Executive, Arnaud Linquette as senior vice president
Memjet recently announced the appointment of Arnaud Linquette as senior vice president of Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. In this newly created position, Linquette will lead Memjet's strategy to increase awareness and adoption of Memjet's printing technology in these regions.
Before joining Memjet, Linquette was general manager of the Graphic Communications Business Group of Xerox Europe. In that role he developed and executed the marketing business strategy and product launch of the Xerox digital printing, packaging, and software business unit in Western Europe.
