Epson is giving its worldwide debut for its latest industrial UV Digital Label Press, the SurePress L-6534VW, at Print China 2019 in Guangdong from April 9-13.
Australians will have the opportunity to see the press on display at PrintEx 19, taking place in Sydney from August 13-16.
The new SurePress L-6534VW prints at speeds of up to 50 meters per minute for higher productivity, with improved reliability and usability from the previous models. Epson says the competitively priced press uses its SurePress UV inks, which comply with the European framework Regulation ((EC) No. 1935/2004) on Food Contact Materials (FCM).
The label press combines PrecisionCore print heads around a central impression drum to provide what Epson calls outstanding image quality and precise colour to colour registration. Epson says its proprietary Nozzle Verification Technology and automatic head maintenance, manual intervention by an operator is minimised.
The SurePress L-6534VW uses low migration CMYK inks with a high opacity white as standard and includes an inline digital varnish for value added label production.
A high precision web feed system ensures substrate waste is minimal and provides consistent re-registration on a pre-printed roll. Together with a corona treater, web cleaner and ioniser the press provides versatility in print production.
In addition, the new model offers faster full colour variable data printing and supports a wide range of label substrates for many different applications.
The new SurePress L-6534VW will begin shipping later in 2019.
