At its stand (3.2-A30), the company's TrueVis series will feature the XP-640 eco-solvent printer, VG3-640 eco-solvent printer/cutter, and LG-640 UV printer cutter, which are suitable for applications in signage, vehicle graphics, and other wide-format print jobs.
The manufacturer will also showcase the latest in its VersaObject range, including the MO-180, the LO-640, and the EU-1000MF UV flatbed printers. The MO-180, the most compact of the series, is a versatile direct-to-object UV printer that can be used for creating custom products and promotional items.
Francisco Lozano, product manager EMEA, said: “As consumer demand for personalised and customised products continues to grow, Roland DG remains committed to equipping businesses with innovative tools for success.”
The new LO Series is suitable for customising boards or objects up to 242mm in height and irregular 3D objects, while the EU-1000MF is a flatbed printer that can print on a variety of media and is suitable for industrial applications.
For businesses in the textile and apparel sector, Roland DG will highlight the TY-300 direct-to-film (DTF) printer, which is suitable for custom garment printing.
Roland DG will also feature products from its VersaStudio range, designed for small businesses and entrepreneurs. The compact BN2-20 printer/cutter and the BD-8 UV flatbed printer are both suitable for creating personalised products “quickly and affordably”.
Visitors will have the opportunity to create personalised golf balls, bottle openers and stickers on-stand with these machines, in collaboration with Antigro Designer.
In addition, the Dimensor-S, a textured printing device combining digital colour printing with dimensional embossing for interior décor applications, will be running live on stand.
As part of the Fespa Personalisation Experience, Lozano will deliver a talk titled ‘Dream it. Make it. Sell it.’ – Personalisation and Business Opportunities with Digital Printing, on Wednesday 7 May at 11.30am.
In this session, Lozano will discuss how digital print technologies are opening new revenue opportunities for businesses. Roland DG said attendees will gain insights into how to leverage customisation to drive customer engagement and create new business avenues.
Roland DG is also part of the new Fespa Foundation initiative, aimed at promoting sustainability within the print industry.
As part of this initiative, the company has printed 80 posters ahead of the show and will produce an additional 20 live on-stand during the event. These posters will be donated to educational environments in underprivileged communities, preventing valuable printed materials from going to waste and supporting educational outreach worldwide.
Fespa Global Print Expo runs from 6 to 9 May at Messe Berlin, Germany.
