FUJIFILM North America Corporation, Graphic Systems Division will display innovations in superwide UV press technology at the Graphics Canada Expo (April 11–13, 2019), at the Toronto International Centre, in Mississauga, Ontario, Canada.
 
The Acuity Ultra, featured in booth 5234, is the new superwide UV printer from Fujifilm, and part of the Acuity Ultra Series, available in 126” (3.2 m) and 197” (5 m) versions.
 
Acuity Ultra is equipped with advanced features for flexible and productive superwide printing, including:

  • A unique chilled vacuum table to enable printing of thin heat-sensitive substrates;
  • An on-board backlighting feature to enable image quality to be checked during printing;
  • Multi-roll capability maximizing productivity allowing multiple jobs to be printed simultaneously
The Uvijet GS ink series, developed specifically for use with the Acuity Ultra Series of printers, produces a low-build ink film with excellent coverage and adhesion, high-density vibrant backlits and a durable finish. Fujifilm’s commitment to environmental responsibility has been recognized through achieving GREENGUARD Certification, from UL Environment, for the Uvijet GS range of inks. GREENGUARD helps manufacturers create and customers choose interior products that support healthy indoor environments through low chemical emissions. Certification means that a product has been rigorously tested and shown to have low emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs).

“The Acuity Ultra is making its Canadian debut at the Graphics Canada Expo,” said Becky McConnell, product marketing manager, FUJIFILM North America Corporation, Graphic Systems Division. “The grand format Acuity Ultra is ideal for the high-end indoor display market, especially for luxury brands. With its massive format size, multi-roll potential and impressive speed, the Acuity Ultra allow PSPs the ability to profitably create exhibition graphics, point-of-purchase displays, high-value graphic art, indoor backlit displays and more.”
