The upgraded Helix is ideal for small cylindrical items in the drinkware, barware, beauty and cannabis industries. Recognised as a fast and reliable print-on-demand solution, these printers are intended for e-commerce and independent producers looking to differentiate their brand, appeal to a wider variety of purchase occasions and increase profit margins.
The original Helix prints superior quality full-colour (CMYKWW + varnish) images on straight-walled and tapered cylinders with a standard diameter range of 5-12.7cm (2-5 inches). However, with an upgraded extended range kit available, new and existing machines can print and support the same high quality level of images onto a full array of products that range in diameter from 3.8cm to around 14.2cm (1.5 inches to around 5.6 inches). Typical applications of this size include tapered shot glasses to straight wall shooters, small bottles, cosmetic jars and even cannabis containers.
‘For the past few months, we have focused on further expanding the printing capabilities of the Helix machines in pre-existing and growing markets such as barware and cannabis,’ said Ben Adner, CEO of Inkcups. ‘Our primary goal was to upgrade the Helix® to print on smaller vessels, particularly shot glasses. We developed the right tooling extension to easily print on a standard size range and then switch to a smaller or larger size in just five minutes. We’re excited to help our customers diversify production with ease.’
