Roland DGA, a provider of wide-format inkjet printers, printer/cutters and other innovative digital devices, has announced the launch of the Roland DG VersaOBJECT LO-640-F3 – an innovative 64-inch UV flatbed printer designed for high-volume, high-precision direct printing on substrates and objects up to 9.5 inches (242 mm) thick. Engineered to maximize productivity without sacrificing image quality, the LO-640-F3 is capable of printing at speeds of up to 332 square feet per hour (30.8 square meters per hour) in CMYK x2 ink mode – approximately three times faster than Roland DG’s previous 64-inch VersaOBJECT flatbed (the CO-640i).

The LO-640-F3 printer’s ability to print directly on a wide range of materials, including plastic, wood and leather, also makes it suitable for customising and personalising three-dimensional objects, including bottles, toys and other specialty items, including those with irregular or curved surfaces.

Ryugo Nimura, President, Global Sales and Marketing Division said, “The combination of two high-precision printheads and high-power UV-LED lamps allows for beautiful, high-definition printing of small characters, fine textures and gradations, even at high output speeds.” 

The LO-640-F3 supports EUV5 inks in CMYKOrRe, plus Clear, White and Primer. High-opacity White ink is often used as a base coat when printing on transparent film or dark objects, while Orange (Or) and Red (Re) inks ensure accurate color reproduction of brand colors as well as unparalleled rich, vivid color expressions. The use of Clear ink produces unique finishing effects, including gloss or matte textures and simulated embossing.
