Key Features

Embellishment of digital and offset prints

High productivity

AIS SmartScanner feature

Beautiful 3D embossed effects, creating premium image and luxurious tactile finish

  • AccurioShine 3600 is the first Konica Minolta Accurio Certified Digital Embellishment machine powered by MGI.
  • The AccurioShine 3600, with its small footprint, allows any customer to have its own in-house UV digital embellishment, from prototyping to mass production, without screens, chemical solvents, plates, or tools.
  • The AccurioShine 3600 uses only one type of varnish to produce 2D or 3D tactile spot UV, in fixed or variable data. Its automatic cleaning system of the inkjet heads allows to optimize its uptime with ease.
  • Versatile, the AccurioShine 3600 allows the application of flat or raised varnish with tactile effect, on substrates as varied as paper, cardboard or plastic, from 135 to 450g, previously printed in digital (toner or inkjet), offset, screen or flexo printing.
  • Easy to use, the AccurioShine 3600 is controlled from an onboard screen, integrating file management, cost calculator and direct retouching of spot files. The AIS SmartScanner, an artificial intelligence-driven automatic registration system, guarantees perfect registration from the very first page, and automatically corrects the registration in real time, according to any substrate deformation.
  • Agile, the AccurioShine 3600 allows prints to differentiate themselves by offering to enrich printed materials with sensory and tactile effects on all types of documents: business cards, announcements, brochures, book covers, leaflets, labels, folding boxes.
  • With the AccurioShine 3600, it has never been easier to enter the market of UV selective varnishing, flat or embossed, while benefiting from the quality of the technologies and the service of the world leader in the sector.
  • You can choose the areas to be embellished and vary the thickness of the varnish. The combination with the iFOIL One inline hot stamping foil module opens the doors to the hot foil stamping and digital embossing market. From magazine covers, books and brochures to labels, invitation cards and packaging, you will be able to offer your customers new and exceptional services.

Customisation and personal station are increasingly in demand. Offering 2D or 3D effects can Make print jobs more profitable. Research shows that many print customers are willing to pay a Premium of up to 89% to add digital print enhancements.*1 Tactile sensation increases impulse Purchases*2 while specialty packaging has more than 46% higher quality perception.*3

Save money and space while adding a host of value-added options to offer your customers.

Compact Size, Infinite Possibilities

In-house, full-production and prototype-finishing spot UV vanishing without the need for screens, plates or dies. The AccurioShine 3600 is fully equipped to allow you to provide a broader range of finishes at an impressively small footprint.

2D & 3D Gloss Effects

Using a single varnish formula, the AccurioShine 3600 digitally produces a variety of effects on a wide range of substrate stocks and media. Create both 2D and 3D finishes on paper, plastics, synthetics and cartons from 135 to 450 gsm. Add coatings to printed materials including offset and digital inks, lamination films and aqueous coatings.

Add Impact to Every Print job

Shorter lead times and a simple job set-up make it simple to add highly profitable special effects to any print job. Optional additions including the Corona Treatment System (CTS) and Automatic PDF File Converter open the door to even more possibilities.

3D Braille Writing

The AccurioShine 3600 is the world premier digital embellishment machine can Produce long-lasting BRAILLE up to 300μ of thickness

ECO-Friendly Solution

The AccurioShine 3600 features a closed/circuit system, leaves no ink or varnish residue, and is designed to prevent any cleaning or material waste between jobs, helping you to reduce paper, varnish and electrical consumption.

No plates or screens. No cleaning between jobs. With the AccurioShine 3600, all you need is a digital mask to add varnish of varying thicknesses straight on top of toner or offset prints. The Artificial Intelligence SmartScanner® reduces operator setup time by more than 80% and keeps jobs running smoothly thanks to automated correction during runs.

Use the intuitive software suite interface to manage jobs and maintenance with ease. With the job cost calculator you can evaluate images, and forecast varnish consumption and costs before production starts. Edit job files directly at the workstation using the spot varnish editor, an easy-to-use graphical tool that enables operators to modify jobs without going back to prepress. Reduce preparation times down to just a few minutes and start jobs with confidence knowing that every sheet will look spectacular.

  •   Take on more lucrative short and medium print runs.
  •   Prepare print runs faster.
  •   Eliminate plates, screens and dies.
  •   Produce more complex jobs.
  •   Apply on top of a wide range of substrates, toner and offset prints.
  •   Job cost calculator.
  •   Workstation spot varnish editor.

Artificial Intelligence Smartscanner® (AIS)

The industry leading AIS is changing the way digital printing and finishing works. The system uses artificial intelligence to create an automatic varnish registration over the pre-printed sheet, reducing setup time by more than 80% and minimising make-ready waste. Without operator intervention, the AIS makes corrections and adjustments for any defects generated in the original offset or digital print process, including sheet and image skew, shift, stretch or contraction.

Boost Your Output these optional Additions

Corona Treatment System

Increase the variety of media your AccurioShine 3600 can use and improve varnish adhesion. The Corona Treatment System (CTS) uses an electric charge to add micro-pitting to surfaces to prepare them for coating. Micro-pitting can increase wettability and adhesion, making ¡t possible to add varnish on top of a wider variety of substrates. Inserted after the paper feeder module, the CTS also contains an optional ozone cabinet, keeping your workplace clean by eliminating the need for ozone ducts. Depending on media and factors such as temperature and humidity, the CTS may not improve adhesion.

Variable Data Printing Barcode Scanner

Variable Data Printing (VDP) is ideal for printing product labels, tickets or packages with small differences such as product names or barcodes. With the barcode scanner, you can make job changes as simple as scanning a barcode. The AccurioShine 3600’s barcode scanner reads barcodes from a pre-printed sheet and instantly selects the corresponding TIFF file already stored on the workstation. Combine the VDP barcode scanner with the Automatic PDF File Converter for a truly seamless workflow which takes files from PDF to the output tray in minutes.

Automatic Pdf File Converter

A separate PC that works as part of your network to automatically translate PDF data into the TIFF files required by the AccurioShine 3600. Once integrated, the Automatic PDF File Converter works to quickly move jobs forward, reducing the manual steps in starting a new print job.

Artificial Intelligence Smartscanner® (Ais) Lighting For Metallized Substrates

Add this option to enable the AccurioShine 3600 to register foil and metallic surfaces accurately. Although the AIS is equipped as standard with highly effective lighting for the vast majority of preprinted media, some substrates with metallic properties require specialised lighting to reduce glare.

In-line Hot Stamping Foil

The combination with the iFOIL One inline hot stamping foil module opens the doors to the hot foil stamping and digital embossing market. From magazine covers, books and brochures to labels, invitation cards and packaging, you will be able to offer your customers new and exceptional services.

Digital spot UV coating adds that extra dimension to any project, helping your customers stand out from the crowd. Create tactile and visual effects on typography and images, add 2D and 3D gloss With/without foil, Solid/textured effects to your final product.
