About Amfortis Package Converting Workflow
Amfortis for packaging converters combines multiple, unique software tools into one powerful production workflow solution that already includes durable printing plates and high-performing CtP systems. From a single user interface, Amfortis guarantees “exceptional print quality and consistency” while streamlining all typical prepress tasks – such as design optimization, stepping & repeating, ripping and job management. The new software functions as an integrated “command centre,” not only outputting printing plates and creating proofs, but also driving digital presses or wide-format printers and cutting devices for sampling and short-run production. Packaging printers and converters will benefit from Amfortis’ reliability and ease of use, while commercial printers who want to add packaging printing to their services will be able to do so “in no time and with very little effort,” said Agfa.Amfortis
Amfortis incorporates Agfa’s standardization software PressTune, which guarantees colour consistency, smoother approvals, faster make-readies, and lower ink and paper consumption. PressTune also provides the ideal ground for Agfa’s revolutionary screening technology SPIR@L that boosts print quality while reducing ink use. It also forms the backbone for Agfa’s ink-saving software InkTune, which can be applied on the extended colour gamut separations supported by Amfortis. Through integration with Agfa’s Arziro (a powerful security design tool that enables creation of complex and unique security designs that discourage counterfeiters), Amfortis also lets printing companies add specific design elements to artwork for enhanced shelf appeal and brand protection.
“Packaging printing is a growing market segment, and the pandemic has even reinforced this through an increase in online shopping,” said Andy Grant, Global Head of Software at Agfa. “At Agfa, we pursue an integrated solutions strategy for all markets we serve. Amfortis is the final piece in the jigsaw for offset packaging. It also fits in our ECO³ approach that supports the business growth of our customers by offering them cost-effective solutions that make their operations more sustainable, productive and convenient,” he added.
