The Jeti Tauro H3300 UHS LED is Agfa’s new flagship, targeted to the high end of the sign & display market. The UV LED inkjet engine prints media up to 3.3 m wide in four or six colors at a speed up to 600 m²/h.

“The Jeti Tauro was already a synonym for highly productive hybrid printing with advanced automation, yet with the Jeti Tauro H3300 UHS LED, we have raised the bar even more,” says Reinhilde Alaert, product manager sign & display at Agfa. “When developing this new flagship, we went all out to make it fit for extreme workloads. On top of that, it is a versatile all-in-one machine that can print rigids and sheets as well as roll materials at the highest quality and the lowest ink consumption. It is the epitome of our ‘Extreme Productivity. Extreme Quality.”

On March 9th, Agfa will host a virtual event dedicated to the new Jeti Tauro H3300 UHS LED under the heading “Meet the beast.” Presentations covering market trends, as well as the new printer’s features and benefits, will be alternated with expert talks about applications and advanced workflow and color management.

CANON Introduces the ARIZONA 2300 SERIES

Canon U.S.A., Inc., introduces to the wide format print market the new Arizona 2300 Series UV curable flatbed printers, designed to speed up production, improve operational efficiencies and fuel growth opportunities.

The new Arizona 2300 Series offers an instant-on capability through its UV-LED curing system, enabling quicker turnaround for last-minute jobs This series is built around the Arizona FLOW technology, a vacuum technique that supports a zone-less, multi-origin table layout. This technology offers more productivity, as it requires less masking and taping, and is supported by easy-to-use, three-sided pneumatic registration pins to better secure the substrate in place on the table.

Additionally, this series also provides customers with the ability to print up to 1,001 ft2/hr. and an automated maintenance system that offers hands-free printhead maintenance that reduce the downtime by restoring nozzle function.

The Arizona 2300 offers UV-LED curing for 40 percent less energy consumption that has been certified for the North American market by TÜV and DGUV.

"We are committed to the research and development of our flatbed series with a focus on smart productivity, application versatility and sustainability. With our customers in mind, the Arizona 2300 Series will make the production process smarter and more automated, enabling our customers to have the time to focus on what matters the most: growing their business," Shinichi Yoshida, executive vice president and general manager, Canon U.S.A., Inc. "With the addition of the new Arizona 2300 series to our portfolio, we have a range of large format solutions to suit any and every print need of our customers.

A.T. Inks UV & UV-LED Inkjet Ink

Thanks to the constant development of new printing methods, as well as techniques that can be adapted to different materials, inkjet printing has become more popular on the last century.

One of the most popular techniques in the digital printing industry is the use of UV curable inks, which can be used to print onto a wide variety of porous and non-porous substrates (even metal or glass). This type of ink is cured almost instantly thanks to a ultra-violet lights that turns the ink immediately from liquid to a solid.

The development of LED curing technology for UV inks has opened new opportunities for printing onto different materials and substrates; that previously could not have been used as a result of the extreme heat produced with mercury lamps.

A.T. Inks (Rex-Tone Industries Limited) has a long history in the world of colors. Mr. Harish Goswamy founded this company in 1994 and since then they have added a wide variety of products to provide solutions to the different printing techniques.

Here are some of the UV and UV-LED inkjet inks that they have nowadays:

Credence F107 Ink – UV/LED

Ink is designed to work on multiple printheads and can be used on hybrid and roll-to-roll machines.

Ultra Elite EFF170 Ink – UV/LED
