HYBRID Software has announced a new partnership with Hamillroad to integrate Bellissima DMS screening technology into its CLOUDFLOW enterprise production workflow. This integration aims to meet the increasing demand from Hamillroad’s customer base for CLOUDFLOW support and combines two advanced technologies to benefit flexographic trade shops and converters.
CLOUDFLOW is a customizable solution used globally by over 1,000 customers for automating prepress tasks. Hamillroad’s Bellissima DMS is renowned in the flexographic industry for its high-quality screening solutions and is widely used by major brands and converters. The partnership will enable users to control Bellissima DMS directly within CLOUDFLOW, seamlessly switch between CLOUDFLOW’s conventional screening options and Bellissima, and access Bellissima’s advanced ‘ACE’ surface patterning and Intelligent Flexo features.
Nick De Roeck, President of HYBRID Software, commented, “The integration of Bellissima DMS into CLOUDFLOW aligns with our mission to advance software for industrial printing and packaging, fostering strong partnerships and providing innovative solutions to enhance customer processes.”
Pierre Hammond, Commercial Director at Hamillroad, noted, “Our customers have been requesting CLOUDFLOW support, and this partnership allows us to address that demand. Together, we are setting new standards in the flexographic printing industry.”
The integrated solution is anticipated to be released in Q3 2024 and will feature Bellissima DMS’s next-generation screening capabilities, including high SID levels for various flexo plates, superior image reproduction quality, and compatibility with multiple plate types and printing methods.
