Roland DGA Corp., Irvine, California, has announced an expansion of its TrueVIS line, with six new and innovative inkjets joining the product family.
The newly launched models include the AP-640 resin printer, the LG-640/540/300 high-productivity UV printer/cutters, and the value-packed MG-640/300 UV printer/cutters. These new additions complement the four popular TrueVIS eco-solvent models—the VG3 and SG3 series printer/cutters—which were introduced in March 2022.
“The launch of Roland DG’s first TrueVIS in 2016 ushered in a new era of image quality, productivity, dependability, and ease of use” says Roland DGA President Amado Lara. “It quickly became apparent to print professionals around the globe that TrueVIS technology would allow them to take their graphics production to a higher level. Now, we’ve expanded our award-winning product line to accommodate ever-changing consumer demand and the diversifying roles of print professionals. That’s what TrueVIS is all about—increasing the options available to those who demand the best, so they can choose the perfect solution for their specific applications and business needs.”
The TrueVIS family now includes models that use three different ink types: resin, UV, and eco-solvent. Like the TrueVIS VG3 and SG3 eco-solvent printer/cutters, the new AP-640 resin printer and LG Series UV printer/cutters are equipped with 7-inch touchscreen control panels.
The TrueVIS AP-640 resin printer combines the quick-drying and environmentally friendly qualities of resin ink with image quality and color making it ideal for a range of applications, including wall décor, indoor signs, retail displays, stickers and decals, banners and posters, vehicle wraps, and more.
“The AP-640, with its dual staggered printheads, True Rich Color 3 preset, GREENGUARD Gold Certified TrueVIS TA Resin Ink, and special TA optimizer, consistently delivers vivid output with rich color and excellent detail,” says Daniel Valade, Roland DGA’s Product Manager of Digital Print. “Plus, like all TrueVIS devices, it’s easy to use and extremely reliable.”
The new LG and MG Series UV inkjets are built on the TrueVIS printer/cutter platform. With their White and Gloss specialty inks, they also allow users to incorporate dimensional and textural effects. The LG-300, LG-540, and LG-640 models are professional-level UV printer/cutters featuring two staggered printheads, higher print speeds (up to 343 sq. ft/hr. in draft mode), wide-gamut EUV5 inks with new orange and red options, new UV lamps for more efficient curing, a newly designed take-up system, and other advancements to maximize productivity.
“Both the LG and MG series printer/cutters image beautifully, accommodate many different types of media, and are capable of producing everything from labels, signage, and wall graphics to window coverings, interior décor, and POP displays,” says Roland DGA UV Product Manager Jay Roberts. “Whether you’re in the market for a top-of-the-line, high-volume UV printer/cutter that can help you take your business to the next level, or a value-packed model to start or build a business, you’ll find what you’re looking for in the new, expanded TrueVIS family.”
