The LED-UV technology pioneered by Ryobi and Panasonic, and first seen at Drupa 2008, will be shown on an SRA1-format press for the first time. At Drupa, Ryobi had to put out extra signage to highlight this innovation because it is so compact and unobtrusive compared to conventional UV systems. A lot of people walked past the machine not realising it was there because there are no cabinets or ducting – we will make sure it is suitably flagged up at Ipex, says Apex Digital Graphics sales and marketing director Neil Handforth. The eco side of it is also very appealing due to the lack of ozone as well as reduced power. The level of interest has really grown.
