The VersaUV LEF-300
The VersaUV LEF-300 has been launched by Roland DG and features a larger printing area which in turn means that customers will be able to achieve greater productivity.
Production boosting features on the LEF-300 include an enlarged printing area of 770 mm wide by 330 mm long, which is 50% more than the previous model and can accommodate items up to 100 mm in height and 8 kg in weight. With four print heads and two UV-LED lamps, bi-directional printing is possible and is approximately 60% faster than the LEF-20. The number of white and clear (gloss) ink nozzles have been doubled for faster printing, increased density and opacity and faster build-up of multiple layers for textured effects.
The new machine makes it possible to print on a wide variety of substrates including acrylic, wood, board, plastic, metal, glass plus fabrics and soft materials such as leather and eco-leather. The device direct prints on to a range of items including pens, mobile phone cases, customised corporate merchandise, signs, personalised awards, giftware, industrial goods and product prototypes.
Jerry Davies, president, Roland DG-EMEA explained, ‘The trend for highly personalised items is growing and customers are using Roland’s VersaUV LEF printers to build profitable businesses by providing on-demand custom printing services for a range of personalised products through e-commerce sites and retail kiosks or as an addition to their existing print shops. The launch of the LEF-300 model brings the VersaUV series into the mass production environment with a number of features to facilitate the customisation and decoration of items in high volumes.’
