Agfa has unveiled two new inkjet systems at FESPA Global Print Expo in Berlin this week – the Jeti Tauro H3300 XUHS and the Onset Panthera FB 3216.
According to Agfa, the new Jet Tauro H3300 XUHS is Agfa’s fastest hybrid press to date.
The Tauro XUHS features up to 1,280 m²/h of raw speed, 12 rows of print heads for maximum throughput, and four or seven colour configurations – including options for extra redundancy in dark colours and enhanced light/mid-tones.
The Panthera FB3216 is built to sweep through print jobs at breathtaking speeds, reaching up to 1,514 m²/h (16,297 ft²/h) or 296 beds per hour. The Panthera adapts to your workflow with a range of automation options, including manual, ¾ automation (laytable + unload robot), autoloader + unload robot, dual robots (loading and unloading), and dual-flex (laytable + dual robots).
The model shown at FESPA Global Print Expo in Berlin this week comes equipped with an autoloader and unload robot.
“We are accelerating the pace of innovation,” Arnaud Calleja, vice president of digital printing solutions at Agfa, said at FESPA Global Print Expo in Berlin this week.
“We started the upgrade of our portfolio several years ago, and we’re seeing the fruits of these efforts now with the innovation that is accelerating,” he said.
“We are a technology driven company and through this innovation we continue to grow year-on-year, and we plan to double the size of this business in the next five years,” Calleja said.
Last year, Agfa released the Anapurna Ciervo H3200 and quickly followed up with two more innovations – the H2500, now touring every major show this year, and the H2050.
The is H2050 smallest in the herd, this 2.05m model is compact yet powerful, balancing footprint and productivity with a top speed of 133 m2/h.
With a 2.5m width and redesigned print engine, the H2500 is known as the workhorse of the group, handling everything from banners to coated textiles at speeds up to 169m²/h.
The 3.2m H3200: excels in large-format applications, offering speeds up to 192 m²/h and seamless roll-to-roll performance.
To celebrate the 20th anniversary of Agfa’s Anapurna range at FESPA, a collector’s edition of the Ciervo H2500 hybrid printer, featuring a unique design by Belian street artist DZIA, is on show at FESPA, with only 10 units available worldwide.
