This milestone marks a significant advancement in the capabilities offered to African businesses, driving them to new heights in the print industry.
Unparalleled Print Quality and Versatility
The Acuity Ultra R2 is not just a printer; it's a comprehensive solution that redefines the landscape of superwide printing. Equipped with Mercury UV and LED UV curing configurations, it caters to a vast array of business needs, offering flexibility in applications from high-end indoor graphics to rapid production of banners and PVC signage. This machine's ability to produce prints with near-photographic quality at remarkable speeds positions it as a formidable player in the market.
With a robust build and a precision-engineered feeding system that ensures accurate drop placement, the Acuity Ultra R2 guarantees consistency across all prints. Its high-performance printheads with a 3.5 picolitre drop size not only enhance the image quality but also contribute to the printer's ultra-low ink consumption, emphasising its cost-effectiveness and high return on investment.
Engineered for Business Growth and Ease of Use
The Acuity Ultra R2's modular system is designed to grow with your business. It starts as a scalable architecture, allowing for future expansions such as adding light colours or white inks, depending on your evolving business needs. This scalability ensures that the printer remains a valuable asset long-term, adapting to both market demands and technological advancements.
Operationally, the printer is a dream for print operators. Features like the chilled vacuum table allow for printing on thin, heat-sensitive substrates, minimising media damage and ensuring high-quality results on a variety of materials. The printer's intuitive GUI and automatic systems like nozzle spitting and media thickness detection enhance usability, reducing setup times and maintaining high productivity levels.
Safety and Productivity Combined
The Acuity Ultra R2 is designed with safety in mind. Media crash detectors prevent potential damage to the printheads, safeguarding your investment and ensuring continuous operation. Additionally, the ability to print on up to three rolls simultaneously or on superwide formats up to five metres in width allows businesses to maximise their output and efficiency.
