LARGE FORMAT PRINTERS FOR SUPERIOR COLOUR
SIGNRACER PRINTERS
When SignRacer talk about high performance and reliability in their flatbed UV printers – they’re talking about saving money. We can’t speak highly enough of these printers.
SignRacers come in 1.6 to 3.2 meter configs, with adjustable print head heights from 10 – 50 centimetres. Available in Flatbed, Hybrid and roll-to-roll configurations, they use standard CMYK or ECG inksets plus white, varnish and neon inks, and the extended colour gamut ink set features orange and violet. In short, this means SignRacer can print colours outside the FOGRA39 colour space.
German quality control, UK-made UV lamps, and then back to Germany for the fibre optics, vacuum bed, cabling and electronics. Multiple array Ricoh Gen6 print heads run on a magnetic linear motor for speeds of up to 84 square metres per hour.
SignRacer’s printhead manages the most accurate droplet placement we’ve ever seen, which means you can print 3-point text on most substrates – think watch faces and pharmaceutical packaging. This level of finesse is a game-changer for serious, high-end brands and SignRacer is our recommendation for quality printers and packaging pros that really value their reputation as high-end providers.
SignRacer’s high definition Ricoh Gen6 printheads give unbeatable fine detail on any substrate. Dual-array heads mean double speed. It’s ideal for rapid, photographic quality results even at large sizes and thicknesses. Easy enough to upgrade when you’re ready, and we’re huge fans of SignRacer inks that include extended gamut options. If you didn’t know it, you’d swear you’d just bought Swiss.
SC-S [SOLVENT]
Epson’s 64-inch SureColor S80600 uses the UltraChrome GS3 9-color solvent ink – including an all-new Red solvent and the option for white or metallic silver inks. Again, superb high quality colour.
Great photographic print quality and media compatibility. Epson tell us the precision media feeding system and a high-performance Dual-Array PrecisionCore TFP print head make the SureColor range one of the most productive sign printers available.
SC-P [AQUEOUS]
Epson’s SureColor SC-P series is popular with anyone who’s doing fine art work. It outputs both black inks at the same time, and includes orange, green and violet inks.
Epson-designed printheads use up to 800 nozzles for each colour, for accurate dot placement. They combine high-speed production with quality, thanks to the μTFP12 printhead with 300dpi resolution and 12 channels.
