Maidstone-based Imagink has purchased an Agfa Jeti Tauro H3300 UHS high speed print engine, making them Agfa’s latest new customer.
The arrival of the new Agfa Jeti Tauro machine was instigated following the printer’s relocation to a 14,000sq ft premises. The new printer replaced an eight-year-old Durst print machine.
Mike Saunders, owner of Imagink, said: “Our previous printer had served us well, but it was getting old, and we needed a machine with greater speed and capacity to meet the demands of our growing business and enable us to quote for work we had previously turned away.”
The Agfa Jeti Tauro H3300 is a UV LED wide format inkjet printer designed for both rigid and flexible media. These heavy-duty printers are capable of handling extreme workloads, supporting multiple shifts, and operating continuously 24/7. Featuring rapid UV LED curing technology and utilising low ink consumption with GREENGUARD-certified inks, the printers provide energy savings, cost efficiency, and ecological benefits, helping print businesses reduce their carbon footprints.
The UHS model within the Imagink range offers six colours, along with white and primer, and is equipped with eight rows of print heads. This is the latest model of the Tauro series, which now features the newly introduced Flex Roll to Roll system.
The Agfa Jeti Tauro was installed on November 18, and according to Mr Saunders the smooth and straightforward purchasing process provided by the Agfa team was key to making the sale.
Agfa is on track for sales of £3.4 million this year, which marks a significant increase compared to last year.
