Kohei Tanabe, president of the Roland DG Digital Printing Business Division, says the ICS Performance Guarantee provides warranty protection for up to four years for outdoor printed graphics and up to seven years for indoor graphics.
"Just as exciting for users of the TrueVIS VG2 Series and Avery Media combination is that after widespread testing, Avery has set the recommended outgassing time at just six hours,” Tanabe says.
“This dramatically reduces the print and laminate timeframe recommended for traditional solvent technology by 75%, allowing users to easily implement same day print and laminate workflows in their businesses and retain a full graphics warranty."
Paul Roba, Avery Dennison OEM Relationship Manager says: "We at Avery Dennison work closely with printing experts like the engineering teams at Roland DG to create production solutions that offer superior performance and peace of mind to our customers. We are happy to add another high-quality print platform with the TrueVIS VG2 Series and TR2 ink to our extensive Integrated Component System Warranty Program. We continue to provide thoroughly tested solutions to our PSPs, increasing confidence in graphic performance and identifying throughput improvement processes."
The TrueVIS VG2 Series adopts a new generation of eco-solvent TR2 ink. In order to take advantage of the VG2's colour reproduction capability and the wide colour gamut provided by TR2 ink, a True Rich Colour preset was also created – allowing vibrant colours to be combined with neutral greys, smooth gradations and natural skin tones for producing stunning graphics.
"Extensive product development was completed for the new TrueVIS VG2 Series printer cutters in combination with the new and advanced TR2 ink," says Tanabe. "The Avery ICS performance guarantee in conjunction with the six-hour outgassing capability provides confidence in the new technology we have implemented to help our customers excel in the real world, where professional graphics producers demand durable high-quality output with brilliant colour and fast turnaround."
