Anapurna offers a range of wide-format UV-curable ink-jet printers. The machine is a flatbed engine, designed to accommodate to the growing market needs of printing on rigid substrates.
According to a company release from the head-quarters in Belgium, the new press has "a revolutionary quick-change vacuum bed technology, six colours (CMYKLcm) and white ink are some of the features of the machine.
It’s most interesting feature is that it can print sizes up to 2.54 x 1.54m, with substrates up to 4.5cm in thickness and 80kg in weight with a print speed of 45 m/hour. The machine has eleven retractable register pins which simplifies quick and accurate positioning, particularly when working on double-sided jobs.
It is priced moderately to attract the entry-level purchasers as well as established users switching to the latest UV technology and a fast return on their investment. Its versatility allows it to accommodate small plus large applications.
"Very close attention has been paid to details like the versatile vacuum bed, register pins, and the ability to load and off-load jobs quickly and easily," said Willy Van Dromme director of marketing wide format at Agfa Graphics.
"Agfa Graphics' new production printer will appeal not only to display producers and sign-makers but also to other market sectors driven by the need for high quality, durable full-colour output using UV-curable ink technology," said Manesh Shetty, manager- marketing and sales.
"It is as suitable for packaging prototypes, promotional goods’ manufacturers as it is for industrial specialists who need fast output and the ability to work with a vast range of rigid substrates," he added.
The Anapurna M2540 FB flatbed solution completes the Anapurna family of cost-effective UV-curable wide-format printers. Agfa Graphics also offers the Jeti range of machines (which has 55 installations in India) and the high-end M-Press Tiger and M-Press Leopard inkjet presses which was show-cased at the Fespa show in Hamburg.
