Roland DG has introduced the VersaUV LEC-300, the world’s first UV inkjet printer/cutter and a highly versatile production tool that brings form, texture and dimension to printed graphics.
The 30” wide LEC-300 prints CMYK+White and clear coat all in one device, a combination which can be used to create special effects and finishes for luxurious, customized graphics. Long lasting LED lamps and Roland DG’s newest generation of UV inks make production with the LEC easy, clean and efficient.
“With VersaUV, professionals can produce unique, realistic textures and patterns such as faux leather and crocodile skin,” said Conrad Birkett, Roland DG Colour product manager. “The VersaUV can also layer clear coat for glossy area highlights, 3D doming and even Braille – all in one seamless workflow. VersaUV allows professionals to take advantage of profitable new business opportunities by offering their customers quick turn-around times and on-demand printing for applications ranging from high-end small-lot production to packaging comps, press proofs and product prototypes.”
