Skandacor, a print finishing and embellishment solutions provider, will host a live launch event for the FINISHpro 3D 1623 on July 9 at 1 p.m. ET inside the Taktisphere, the online print community hosted by Taktiful.

Led by Skandacor Vice President of Sales, Jon Congdon, the event will give print professionals a live look at the FINISHpro 3D 1623, an inkjet digital embellishment press priced under $70,000. Attendees will see the machine in action, hear from guest speakers, ask questions, and get a practical look at how raised UV, dimensional textures, spot gloss, and foil-enhanced embellishment workflows can fit into everyday production.

For many print businesses, digital embellishment has remained out of reach because of the cost of traditional equipment. Many systems fall well into six-figure territory, limiting access for small and mid-sized shops that want to offer premium finishes, create higher-value print products, and keep more embellishment work in-house.

"We didn't want to simply release a spec sheet and ask printers to imagine the possibilities," said Jon Congdon, Vice President of Sales at Skandacor. "We wanted them to see the machine run, look at the finished output, ask questions, and understand how this technology can realistically fit into their business."

During the live launch, attendees will see the FINISHpro 3D 1623 produce flat spot gloss and raised varnish textures on sheets up to 16x23 inches using Skandacor's proprietary XYZ-axis layering process. The event will also show how the press can work alongside the broader Skandacor pro™ lineup, including LAMpro laminators and SLEEKpro foil accents, to create a complete and accessible embellishment workflow.

"For too long, the creative impact of digital embellishment has been limited to shops with the largest budgets," said Brad Drever, CEO of Skandacor. "The FINISHpro 3D 1623 changes that. It gives more printers a practical way to add high-impact finishes, create more value for their customers, and bring more embellishment work in-house."

The live event is designed to be more than a product presentation. Attendees can expect live unboxings, guest speakers, audience Q&A, product demonstrations, and a candid conversation about what it takes to bring embellishment into everyday production.
