As part of our ongoing commitment to providing top tier print solutions, we’re excited to announce the addition of the Fuji Acuity R2 into our fleet of printing equipment. At 8.5 tons and 5 meters long, this state-of-the-art printer is not just a game-changer for us; it’s going to bring significant benefits to our print buyers as well.
So, what makes the Fuji Acuity R2 5044 such a powerful addition to our business, and how will it improve your print projects? Let’s dive in!
1. We Can Print Super-Wide Up to 197”!
For the materials where grand format rolls are available, printing these rolls in full width saves on pre-print slitting conversion costs. Printing on grand format rolls gives us the flexibility to handle super-large format prints with ease. This capability allows for seamless production of large-scale projects like banners and wall decor without the need for multiple panels or seams. It maximizes the use of materials, reduces waste, and ensures that even the biggest projects are completed in one continuous print. For print buyers, it means a smoother, more efficient process and stunning large-format prints with flawless, uninterrupted quality.
2. We Can Print 3 Rolls Simultaneously On 1 Press!
Printing three rolls at once on our digital press is a major time-saver and productivity booster. By printing multiple rolls simultaneously, we can significantly increase output without compromising quality. This capability allows us to handle larger volumes of work in a shorter period of time; especially beneficial for clients with tight deadlines or high-volume projects. Not only does it streamline the production process, but it also maximizes the efficiency of our equipment. For our print buyers, this means faster turnaround times, lower costs, and the ability to manage large orders with greater efficiency, all while maintaining the consistency and quality they expect.
3. We Can Slit The Roll During the Printing Process!
We can now slit during the print process up to 3 independent rolls at once. Inline Y-axis slitting automatically cuts and aligns media as it moves through the printer, ensuring registration and preventing any misalignment or slippage during the printing process. This feature is particularly valuable for multi-wide print jobs, jobs requiring lamination, jobs requiring subsequent screen print durability or gloss clear over-prints, or projects with varying substrate sizes. For our clients, this means faster turnarounds, and more reliable output, even on the most challenging materials.
4. We Can Print Extreme Detail With Variable Picoliter Jetting
We can digitally print incredibly fine detail with variable droplet jetting from 3.5-14 picoliters. Variable picoliters (pL) in printing technology allows for precise control over ink droplet sizes, enhancing both print quality and color accuracy. Through variable droplet size, we can achieve finer details, smoother gradients, and better color accuracy. This feature also enables faster printing by using larger droplets for solid areas while utilizing small picoliters where detail is needed. Additionally, variable picolitres optimize ink usage, reducing waste and improving cost efficiency, making it ideal for both high-quality and high-volume printing.
5. We Can Expand Our Product Offering with the On-Board Mesh Kit
A mesh kit is valuable because it can catch jet-through ink on mesh banner that has no liner/carrier. This saves money on material cost (no longer requiring a liner) and allows us to digitally print on a wider variety of challenging or textured surfaces, such as fabrics and flexible materials. It ensures even ink distribution, better adhesion, and prevents smearing, resulting in cleaner, more durable prints. Additionally, it enhances print registration and alignment on uneven substrates, improving overall print precision.
6. Printing Up to 4,000 ft2/hr
With speeds like this, we can handle high-volume projects quickly and efficiently without compromising on quality. This impressive speed allows us to deliver large orders in record time, making it ideal for urgent deadlines or time-sensitive campaigns. Whether it’s banners, signage, or bulk graphics, our fast production capabilities ensure that your project stays on schedule, allowing you to meet your goals and stay ahead of the competition.
7. Eco-Friendly Printing with Low Energy Consumption
In addition to the high-quality print results, the Fuji Acuity R2 5044 uses significantly less energy compared to other printing methods. Plus, the use of eco-friendly UV inks contributes to lower environmental impact, making it a great choice for customers aiming to reduce their carbon footprint.
