TrueVIS XG-640

Roland has launched a new flagship printer in its TrueVIS range.

The XG-640 is the latest edition to the series, being a 64-inch eco-solvent printer/cutter.

It employs newly designed dual staggered print heads that eject finer ink droplets at higher densities.

The new high-speed data control technology maximises performance, achieving outstanding productivity of 15.2m sq/hr in standard mode for 8-colour PVC and 22.5m sq/hr in standard mode for 4-colour PVC.

The XG-640 uses new GBL-free TR3 ink to deliver rich, vivid colour in a wide colour gamut, with a choice of ink configurations up to eight colours.

White ink printing is three times faster and 1.3 times denser than the VG3, delivering excellent opacity for window graphics and base coats.

The printer is also packed with additional productivity features for efficient, high-quality output, including automatic media set-up and take-up systems to ensure fast and stable throughput, a 7-inch colour LCD touch-screen control panel, automated pinch rollers, perforated sheet cutting, a media gap adjustment function, and self-maintenance features.

Ryugo Nimura, president, global sales and marketing division, said: “The new XG-640 is our fastest printer/cutter ever, combining the overwhelmingly high image quality and versatile expressive power of the TrueVIS series with our pioneering print/cut technology.

“It not only creates eye-catching sign graphics, but also enables the seamless, automated production of a wide variety of uniquely shaped applications, including stickers, labels, and apparel decorations. It provides your business with increased efficiency and a strong competitive edge.”
