Two new ground-breaking solutions for Roland DG R
oland DG has launched two new ground-breaking solutions, the VersaUV LEC2 Series of UV roll-to- roll printer/ cutters and VersaUV LEC2 S-Series of UV flatbed printers. The VersaUV LEC2 Roll-to-Roll Printer/ Cutter Series comprises the LEC2-330 width 762mm (30in) and LEC2-640 width 1625mm (64in) and focuses on optimising print quality and expanding media compatibility, delivering a truly comprehensive UV printing solution for a wide spectrum of print professionals. Designed for both indoor and outdoor applications, the LEC2 printer/ cutter series will appeal to both packaging professionals for creating mock-ups and prototypes, and to print companies wanting to add premium quality or special effects to a wide range of signs and graphics. Integrated cutting capabilities will also appeal to those looking for an all-in-one production solution. The wider LEC2-640 presents an attractive solution for a vast range of indoor and outdoor applications. The high-opacity white ink makes it possible to print onto transparent materials, like static cling films, and produce graphics for window displays and promotions. Customers who choose to include clear ink in their ink configuration can also add eye-catching effects to custom wall coverings, as well as smaller applications like decals and stickers. Comprising four flatbed models, the S-Series is offered in a range of configurations and sizes to suit production environments and requirements of all types. Available in two widths, 762mm (30in) and 1625mm (64in), and in three length configurations (F200, F300 or F400), with an impressive printable height of 230mm.
