RMC Digital Print has invested for a second time in Durst’s systems and software. The trade printer, based in Hull, has installed a Rho 512R Plus five metre wide 12-picolitre UV inkjet machine .
The roll-to-roll production printer complements a Durst Rho P10 inkjet flatbed RMC installed two years ago, which included a white ink configuration to enable the company to produce multi-layered backlit work. Now with a double white configuration on the 512R Plus, the company can produce better quality, partly illuminated flex face and textile graphics for the signage and exhibition sectors.
‘We need highest quality production for exhibition, signage and other work, which the Durst machines can provide,’ said Nicole Spencer, operations director at RMC. ‘The quality on the Dursts is really, really good, particularly with fine text and for high density colours. One exhibition client has found that instead of double-striking to get the green, it can now all be done in a single pass. And we can also leave the machine to run on its own in the evening with unattended printing due to the carbon fibre bars and encompassed tracking software. It’s marvellous.’
‘Unattended printing and low production costs make the Rho 512R Plus one of the most economical printers of all time,’ claimed Peter Bray, managing director of Durst UK and Ireland. ‘We’re delighted to learn that that both Durst systems are opening up important new business opportunities with RMC Digital Print’s trade clients, for signage, museum and exhibition work.’
