Large-format print, display and graphics PSP MediaCo has taken delivery of the UK’s first swissQprint Kudu. The 3.2×2m flatbed machine has been installed at the company’s manufacturing site in Trafford Park, Manchester.
The 10-colour (CMYKLcLm, white, neon yellow and pink, varnish) printer has three rows of printheads to deliver a print resolution of 1350dpi and an output of up to 304m2/hr. Roll-to-roll and dual roll options mean that films, banner, mesh and other roll stock up to 180kg can be handled, as well as boards and sheet materials.
MediaCo MD Stephen Arthur said: “The flexibility, productivity and energy efficiency offered by the Kudu made it the perfect fit in support of our commitment to deliver innovation as part of our net zero, carbon reduction plan.”
As the approved beMatrix UK print partner, MediaCo will now showcase the Kudu’s latest creative and sustainable print as an integral part of the beMatrix display system for the exhibition, retail and live events sectors.
Arthur added: “Outstanding print quality, application of neon inks, and amazing 3D images on acrylic are just some of the innovative options we can now provide for the beMatrix system and will help revolutionise both the impact and sustainability of display graphics.”
