Lightning Digital, a division Lightning Graphics housed in a 24,000-square-foot facility in Scarborough, Ontario, purchased its second EFI VUTEk large-format-printing system.
The company’s new UV-based VUTEk GS2000 system, purchased through distributor Coast Paper, has the ability to print on substrates of up to two inches thick and 80 inches wide. Lightning Digital installed its first VUTEk QS2000 in 2010.
“Our production demand increased at such a rapid pace that we required a second unit within a year to be able to keep up with the demand,” stated Ovidio Sui, Sales Executive and co-owner of Lightning Digital. “The hybrid units enables us to output different jobs, substrates and the unique requirements of our customers, yet allows us the flexibility to run large jobs over both units at the same time.”
In addition to the Lightning Digital, which controls large-format production, as well as a Canon imagePRESS C6000VP toner system, Lightning Graphics also runs two 40-inch Komori sheetfed presses, a 20-inch Heidelberg press, and several finishing systems. The company is led by founder and CEO, Andy Tieu.
