Latest high resolution five metre UV roll-to-roll Fascin8tor printer to show its full capabilities at exhibition.
Gandy Digital, a Canadian manufacturer of market-leading digital inkjet large format printers, has chosen drupa 2016 for the first live public demonstration of its new Fascin8tor large format five metre UV roll-to-roll printer. It will be fully operational on the company’s stand (Hall 6, Stand D69) at the exhibition.
This latest addition to Gandy Digital’s expanding range delivers large format five metre wide prints with very low ink consumption and prints at very high quality regardless of speed.
Equipped with eight Ricoh Gen 4 6 picolitre print heads per colour and advanced Blade technology, the Fascin8tor is billed as delivering optimum print resolution in all printing modes and speeds, ensuring vibrant high-quality print output across an array of applications. As well as printing onto mesh without a liner for outdoor applications such as billboards, these include other applications such as indoor POS/POP and other promotional projects. The automatic head height adjustment allows users to change material thickness in minutes, while the print heads are protected through the printer’s unique crash sensor option.
A key selling point of the machine is cost-savings due to reduced ink consumption per square metre, all down to its high density, small fixed dot printing capability. The Fascin8tor also allows multiple material rolls to print different jobs at the same time, while the printer’s jumbo roll feature can handle rolls up to 1000 metres long.
Shmulik Lagziel, Managing Director EMEA, Gandy Digital, commented:
“Having to date only offered a single static display of the Fascin8tor, we are thrilled to be able to demonstrate its full capabilities via live demonstrations for the first time at a major international tradeshow.
“Thanks to key speed and print quality features that directly meet the needs of users, this large format five metre UV roll-to-roll printer is already beginning to engage the interest of the large format print community. We therefore anticipate it being one of the highlights for users in this space, at drupa.”
Alongside the new Fascin8tor printer at drupa 2016, Gandy Digital will feature a selection of advanced printers from its range, including:
Gandy Digital Softjet
A direct to fabric roll-to-roll one-process sublimation printer, which incorporates a built-in drum heater for ink curing, eliminating the need for a calendaring unit. The Softjet uses environmentally safe water-based inks to provide vibrant and durable colours. Featuring the latest Ricoh Gen 5 print heads, Softjet is available in 3.3m (10'10"), 2.54m (8'4"), 1.88m (6'2") print widths.
Gandy Digital Pred8tor and Domin8tor
The Pred8tor and Domin8tor are True UV flatbed printers with a vacuum table. The Pred8tor print size is 1.22m (4ft) X 2.44 m (8ft) and the Domin8tor print size is 2m (6ft 6 in) X 3.05m (10 ft). The Pred8tor and Domin8tor come with a roll-to-roll option that achieves the same print quality without compromising true flatbed capability. Print quality and speed on the Pred8tor and Domin8tor are driven by the inline ‘Blade’ print head configuration system, printing 25.4cm (10 inch) wide swath using 6-picoliter variable dot Ricoh print heads. This system eliminates head to head alignment and gives sharp images at high speeds.
