Agfa has announced new robotics for the Jeti Tauro H3300 and an autoloading system for the Onset Grizzly X3 HS at Printing United.

Agfa has introduced the new MAX Bots for the Jeti Tauro H3300 UHS and the autoloader for the Onset Grizzly X3 HS to boost efficiency and reduce labour costs.

“At Agfa, we’re dedicated to offering a portfolio of powerful and innovative solutions that meet every printing need,” said Agfa director of strategic business development, Deborah Hutcheson, at the Printing United press conference held in Las Vegas.

“The MAX Bots and Grizzly autoloader exemplify how automation can transform high-volume production, reducing costs and boosting efficiency,” she said.

The MAX Bots handle substrate loading and unloading with up to 150 cycles per hour.

The autoloader for the Onset Grizzly X3 HS flatbed inkjet printer is designed for high-volume graphics and packaging work and features a six-second cycle time to keep pace with the Grizzly top speed of 281 beds per hour. It can handle up to four sheets simultaneously with substrate thicknesses ranging from 0.1mm to 50mm.

Also released at Printing United will be the North American debut of three machines launched at Fespa in Amsterdam earlier this year – the Jeti Condor, Jeti Bronco and Anapurna Ciervo.

SMARTECH is the exclusive distributor of Agfa in Australia.
