  • Includes an optical sensor system, dedicated electronics, and software
  • Simple, easy, and fully automatic system
  • Eliminates the need for guesswork and manual manipulation
  • Reduces required operator skill level
  • Two available workflows, are to be defined before printing:
    • Head-to-head printing for short jobs where media is rolled back, flipped over, and reinstalled with side B up
    • Head-to-tail printing for longer jobs where printed media is collected on a front core, flipped over, and reinstalled with side B up

Automatic backlit printing – Automatic, patented system for perfectly aligned double-sided backlit printing on backlit media.

  • Accuracy of ≤ 2 mm over 10 linear meters
  • Camera-guided software automatically corrects registration on x, y, and tilt axes
  • Includes two cameras, LED strip along the printing table, and dedicated software
  • Simple, easy, and fully automatic system
  • Eliminates the need for guesswork and manual manipulation

  • Material width: 320 cm
  • Maximum media diameter: 70 cm
  • Standard 3 in core; optional 6 in core

Dual roll split shaft – consists of two individual motorised airshafts. Ensure precise and accurate media collection and improved media advance, resulting in excellent print quality.

  • Enables printing simultaneously on two media rolls with different diameters
  • Tension between the rolls is automatically adjusted according to the media diameter
  • Media loading and unloading is flexible, simple, and quick
  • Shafts can be inflated to fixate the media and avoid shifting side to side
  • Supports media rolls up to 200 kg per shaft

Media edge guards (MEG) – used for media types with uneven or wavy edges that tend to curl or unravel, such as textiles and wallpaper.

  • Designed to protect the print carriage and printheads from crashing into uneven media edges
  • Eliminates ruined jobs and prevents media waste
  • Can be attached quickly and easily with magnets anywhere along the printing table
  • Use as many units as needed and multiple units for multi-roll printing

Wrinkle analyzer – helps avoid printhead strikes caused by media wrinkles, saving time and money by preventing ruined jobs and enabling the use of lower-cost media.

  • Media height detector identifies a media wrinkle before it reaches the printhead
  • The front-end software prompts the user to raise the carriage just enough to avoid a head strike that may ruin the job and, then, to resume printing

Media saving wizard

  • Designed to improve media stock management
  • The user enters the length of the media each time a new or partially used roll is loaded into the software
  • Before the media is removed from the printer, a label with the remaining media length is printed on the rim of the roll
  • The software will alert the user before starting a job if the remaining media on the roll is insufficient for the job
