Roland DG Expands VersaUV Line with Larger, Faster Benchtop LEF-300 UV Flatbed Printer

19-Jan-2016 Roland DG Corporation, a leading manufacturer of wide format inkjet printers worldwide, have announced the addition of the VersaUV
LEF-300 to its line of benchtop UV-LED flatbed inkjet printers.

According to Gino Farina, Roland DG Australia Sales & Marketing Director, VersaUV printers, which include the previous LEF-12 and LEF-20 models, are popular for their ability to print rich colour directly on a vast array of materials, including three-dimensional items up to 100 mm thick. The LEF-300 was developed in response to customer demand for greater productivity in the personalisation and custom printing markets, which are characterised by small-lot production of numerous products. To accommodate greater quantities and larger-sized items, the LEF-300’s printing area has been expanded to 770 mm wide by 330 mm long, 50% more than the previous models.

“With the LEF-300,” Farina said, “you can print on a wide variety of substrates such as PET, ABS, and polycarbonate, and soft materials such as TPU and leather, as well as three-dimensional items, including pens, smartphone cases, signs, personalised awards, giftware, promotional items, laptop covers and more. A vacuum table makes it easy to hold thin and soft materials in place,” he added.
