Tyne and Wear based Radecal becomes Roland partner
Roland DG has appointed Radecal Machine Sales and Service as a Roland Partner representing its full range of digital printing and sign-making solutions. Based in Washington, Tyne and Wear, this company has many years of practical manufacturing experience which brings significant extra value when it comes to supplying production solutions.
Sign and Digital UK will see the company demonstrating the VersaCamm VS series with integrated cutting, in a version using metallic and white ink. The families of sign and display systems now available from Radecal also include the Roland AdvancedJet AJ-1000 and AJ-740 industrial-strength units, all SolJet XC print-and-cut options and the SolJet XJ duo. These are complemented by the wide-format VersaArt RS-640 and Roland’s GX suites of vinyl cutters.
Formed nearly ten years ago as a sign manufacturing specialist, Radecal’s experience in production soon led it down the road to becoming a knowledgeable and respected distributor. Starting out as a reseller of CNC routers, laser cutters and engraving machines, the company moved into the 3D rapid prototyping arena before adding laminating and other finishing options to its rapidly expanding portfolio of products.
“Running with the hare and the hounds sometimes raises an eyebrow, but it makes perfect, logical sense for us to offer a full range of sign-making and wide-format printing equipment as a complement to our production business,” said Radecal managing director Chris Economides. “We’re proud to be investing in, and selling, what we consider to be the cream of all printer ranges. We have used Roland systems since we first started our sign business back in 2002 and we’ve always been impressed with their consistently high quality performance and value for money. As a result, we’re more than happy to have been appointed as a partner and we are holding various open days at our premises.”
