Roland to Showcase New VersaUV LEJ-640FT Flatbed UV Printer at ISA 2015

Roland DGA will be showcasing the new VersaUV LEJ-640FT at ISA 2015, an innovative flatbed UV-LED printer capable of printing on substrates up to six inches thick and weighing as much as 220 pounds.

Featuring a 64” (W) by 98” (L) bed, the LEJ-640FT flatbed UV printer easily handles popular 4’ by 8’ sheets. A rigid, all-steel frame reduces vibration. Adjustable pinpoint guides ensure precise registration and a zoned vacuum bed optimizes suction to keep substrates of different sizes flat. Dual stepper motors incorporated with a rack and pinion drive system ensure accurate printing.

In addition to CMYK, the LEJ-640FT offers White and Clear Coat inks for POP displays, art, architectural signs and two-sided signs with high visual impact and unique dimensional effects. Roland’s ECO-UV inks adhere to a wide range of treated and untreated materials with an exceptional color gamut. A patented Roland Automated Ink Circulation System™ prevents unnecessary discharges and minimizes the settling of pigments in the ink lines.

The LEJ-640FT flatbed UV printer is operated through a handheld EZ Controller with a user-friendly interface. The EZ Controller is programmed to deliver 1/1000th of an inch accuracy for precise print registration and print head height adjustment.

According to Jay Roberts, Roland product manager, the new flatbed’s six-inch gap and 220-pound capacity allows users to print on the widest range of materials and objects, opening up new opportunities for product decoration and industrial applications. Like Roland’s other VersaUV series printers, it can produce 1440 x 1440 dpi prints with flawless gradations, super fine details and sharp text.

The LEJ-640FT comes bundled with powerful VersaWorks® RIP software, which includes the Roland Color System and PANTONE® libraries for spot color matching. Additional features that add to the LEJ-640FT’s ease-of-use and productivity include dual sensors for automatic media thickness detection and print head protection, plus a cross-hair laser guide for precise base-point selection.

The VersaUV LEJ-640FT flatbed printer is backed by a Two-Year Trouble-Free Warranty and Roland’s world-class service and support. Roland owners and users can also take advantage of helpful resources available through the Roland Academy, including webinars, videos and hands-on instruction covering everything from printer basics to advanced applications and production techniques.
