To be released right after PrintEx, at FESPA in Cologne, Germany from 18-22 May, Screen has added a new 3.2m wide roll-to-roll option to the increasingly popular Truepress Jet W3200UV flatbed UV printer, making it one of the industry’s most versatile machines capable of handling a variety of flexible and rigid materials.
As a joint development between Screen, Japan, and its subsidiary company Inca Digital in the UK, the Truepress Jet W3200UV printer is a six colour + white device designed to meet the demands of the POS, signage and decor markets today. It has the ability to print onto a wide range of rigid and now, flexible media up to 3.2 x 1.6m in size and up to a maximum 50mm thickness. 
Truepress inks, renowned for their flexibility and adhesion, include a high-opacity white, light cyan and light magenta, with excellent resistance to the bending and cutting of print substrates.
Local Managing Director Peter Scott says: “The upcoming release of a 3.2 metre roll-feed and take-up option more than doubles the appeal of the W3200UV. Because of its speed, changing from a rigid flatbed job to roll-to-roll work is all the more attractive. The same near-photographic quality will be achievable on close and distance - viewed roll media, banners, billboards, backlit panels, vehicle wraps and so on. Together with our exclusive dealer Graphic Art Mart, we look forward with eagerness to bringing the first W3200UV with roll option into Australia.”
FESPA is popular with Australian visitors and during the show Screen will print a variety of challenging graphics so visitors can see the printer’s ability to produce smooth tints, vivid colours and sharp 4pt text. The aim is not only to demonstrate the printer’s significant 150 sqm/hr productivity at great quality, but also how easy it is to print high-value products, including 5 and 7-layer multi-layer backlit and day/night graphics and accurate 75lpi lenticulars at over 50sqm/hr.
