2014: A “Banner Year" for Memjet
San-Diego-based Memjet reports that 2014 was a record year for its product development and growth within its partner ecosystem, according to wirthconsulting.org.
During 2014, Memjet partners Afinia, Beiren, Colordyne, TechNova, TrojanLabel introduced new Memjet-based printing solutions for the print on-demand business and label-converter businesses. Memjet says that many of its established OEMs also registered impressive sales growth across desktop label, wide-format, and corrugated packaging applications through channel growth, private-label partnerships, and direct-sales.
Memjet now has over 30 OEM partnersworldwide. According to its announcement, its wide-format OEM partners grew their installed bases significantly in the past year – notably Canon, RTI Digital, and Xante. Canon/Oce re-launched its ColorWave 900 at the FESPA trade show, and the system included a software upgrade and newly available hardware options. As a result, Canon EMEA and Canon Solutions America achieved positive growth quarter-over-quarter. Due to increasing market acceptance of short-run corrugated packaging solutions, Xante also increased its sales for the last three consecutive quarters. Last, RTI Digital expanded its global reseller network with new agreements with Adkote, CMYUK, Druma, and Printingworld to distribute the Vortex 4200.
In 2014, Memjet also released two new print engines, Aspen and Sirius for its press and desktop engine printing partners. Aspen, a page-wide color inkjet print engine, is optimized for speed and high quality, printing at up to 225 feet/minute in full-color, targeting the label and commercial-press markets. Sirius is a compact, single print-head, full-color print engine reference design developed for label OEMs designed to speed up the development of cost-effective roll-to-roll print systems that perform maintenance without needing to cut the web.
