EFI has introduced its latest UV-curable printer that represents a true replacement for analog equipment with the productivity of screen and image quality approaching offset at the ongoing drupa at Dusseldorf, Germany. The 3.2m EFI VUTEk HS100 Pro is a versatile high-speed digital UV press with productivity and image quality that will appeal to screen printers and the commercial sector wanting a cost-effective digital platform to produce longer sheet runs at a low total cost of ownership.
EFI’s Pin & Cure imaging technology, driven by the Orion OS platform, delivers precise ink lay-down for critical colour accuracy and consistency, gloss control and a increased colour gamut — all with the productivity and digital efficiencies to accommodate more versioning and localisation. With impressive throughput speeds at rates of up to 100 boards per hour and up to 50 boards per hour in P-O-P mode, the VUTEk HS100 Pro comes with true greyscale print head technology and up to eight colours, including white and specials, for maximum ink yield and a low cost per print over analog.
