The Oberon RTR3300 is the latest addition to Agfa’s large format printer portfolio. This dedicated 3.3m high-end roll-to-roll system comes in a four colour plus white and a six-colour version, and combines extreme productivity and quality with an extensive media scope and a unique ease of use.
Thanks to its water-cooled table and its UV LED lamps, it smoothly handles any kind of heat-sensitive roll material, including lower cost media. The dedicated mesh printing kit makes printing on mesh easy. The engine comes with a number of smart functions that speed up operations, facilitate job planning, and optimise media use.
The Oberon will run alongside the heavy-duty Jeti Tauro H3300 LED. This 3.3m hybrid printer is built to handle extreme workloads 24/7 at a stunning speed of up to 453sqm.
It recently received a number of upgrades: it now also comes in a four-colour version, which reaches sellable ‘production’ quality in a mere three passes. The existing six-colour version, on the other hand, best serves those prioritising unequaled print quality.
The new Automatic Board Feeder (ABF) enhances production efficiency. It is ideal for shorter runs, and a fast and smooth changeover between different media sizes or types.
In addition to the existing master roll-to-roll version, designed for high-volume print runs, the Jeti Tauro H3300 LED now also features an optional light roll-to-roll unit, which is particularly suited for occasional, short single roll-to-roll work, yet can be quickly converted to sheet mode.
With the new additions, the Jeti Tauro H3300 LED now boasts six configurations with different levels of automation. Since its introduction, the Jeti Tauro H3300 LED has supported the growth of many sign and display companies.
Agfa’s Asanti software functions as a smart production hub for sign and display companies. Asanti automates workflow processes for increased productivity and warrants superior print quality and colour consistency. Its intuitive dashboard provides details about the status of the printer and print jobs, while ‘media recipes’ control all parameters for a particular substrate. In addition, Asanti’s smart imaging algorithms help to limit ink consumption.
Agfa’s large format engines not only excel in print quality and productivity. They also offer the best cost of ownership thanks to their extremely low ink consumption, relying on Agfa’s patented ‘Thin Ink Layer’ technology, which involves the optimal dispersion and high pigment load of Agfa-made inks, combined with its Asanti workflow algorithms.
The Anuvia ink sets used in the Jeti and Oberon printers obtained the highest category of GREENGUARD Gold certification, which means they meet some of the world’s most rigorous chemical emissions standards and can be used in sensitive indoor environments like schools or healthcare facilities.
These solutions will be showcased at FESPA 2020. Visitors to the booth will also be able to attend demos of the Asanti StoreFront web-to-print software, and of the data exchange solution PrintSphere.
