DES has always been known as a ‘solutions specialist’ and it will cement this position by demonstrating a range of leading wide format and solvent print solutions on its PacPrint stand #2624 later this month.
Sales Director Russell Cavenagh says the PacPrint display will not only focus on meeting demand for improved profitability and productivity, but help businesses identify new revenue streams and higher margin business. “We’ll be showcasing ‘game changing print solutions which offer the lowest total cost per square foot ever available in this country and dramatically reduced turnaround times while new, LED imaging solutions not only open up new applications but deliver ‘litho-like’ quality and can reduce ink costs while delivering a satin, matte and gloss print effects,” Cavenagh says.
Leading the print solutions will be two UV hybrid printers - the VUTEk QS2Pro
two-metre ‘grand format’ model which opens up new opportunities with its ‘superwide’ format, and the reliable, versatile EFI H652 wide-format machine.
“The VUTEk QS2Pro has raised the bar’ for quality and productivity,” Cavenagh claims. “With it’s super-wide format, ink-saving grey-scale technology, VUTEk’s legendary three-layer white and high productivity in a small footprint, this machine can produce up to 93sqm (or 16 boards) an hour and can be switched from flatbed to roll-to-roll operation in less than two minutes.
“The EFI H652 is widely regarded one of the most reliable UV printers on the market, providing outstanding value for businesses considering investing in an entry-level machine for UV printing on rigid or roll-to-roll materials. EFI has also sweetened the package for PacPrint visitors by including the impressive Fiery PRO server, an easy to use RIP which can handle all production requirements from a single interface.”
These will be complemented by a 64” (1620mm) wide Epson ‘SureColor’ solvent printer, which has made a ‘stunning’ debut in the past six months, says Cavenagh. “The SureColor range has quickly established a name for itself in the solvent printing market with its Eco-Solvent and nickel-free inks, photo quality print, robust construction and high productivity of up to 52 sqm per hour,” he explains.
“At PacPrint, we will be demonstrating the versatile SureColor on a variety of substrates from world-leading MACtac vinyls and laminate films, to synthetic papers, photo papers, Phototex textiles and canvases. With such broad capabilities and a choice of three models to suit specific requirements, it’s a must-see for anyone considering a move into eco-solvent printing.”
