Agfa is set to showcase a new Flex RTR roll-to-roll printing module on its fastest multi-pass wide-format inkjet printer family, the Tauro H3300 LED, at Fespa Global (Munich, 23-26 May).
The Flex RTR module – which doesn’t have to be undocked when transitioning from rolls to boards or sheets – was developed to match the one-pass printing mode on the Tauro H3300 UHS LED, up to a printing speed of 905m²/h. With a button press the dancer rolls controlling media tension move upward for quick and simple media loading by a single operator.
With the ability to handle both single- and dual-roll printing, the Flex RTR module can accommodate widths of up to 3.3m and 1.6m, respectively, with a maximum roll diameter of 400mm and a weight of 450kg for each roll.
To ensure accurate double-sided printing, an integrated camera system reads QR codes generated by the printer’s user interface to pinpoint the exact image location and adjust the print position at the start of each job. If printing on the back side is unexpectedly halted, the camera system will identify which image needs to be printed, so that production can resume rapidly and flawlessly.
The new Flex RTR module is now available as of this moment for all Tauro H3300 LED printers.
