Electronics For Imaging, Inc. (EFI) announced that Sandy Alexander, Inc. is the first US customer to purchase and install EFI’s new high-volume, 5-meter EFI VUTEk 5r LED roll-to-roll printer. The Clifton, NJ-based integrated multi-channel communication solutions provider chose the superwide-format printer to add greater production capacity in its growing Wide Format division.
According to Michael Graff, president and CEO of Sandy Alexander, the new addition reflects the company’s commitment to building stronger relationships with clients by addressing their evolving needs.
“Every year, customers’ expectations ratchet up as shorter time to market and lower costs are part of the narrative for businesses everywhere,” Graff said. “As our customers are pressed to meet tight deadlines and contain costs, we focus on researching and investing in state-of-the-art technology, and keeping a watchful eye on how best to tighten-up our workflow to drive efficiency.”
Featuring high-resolution, 7-picoliter EFI UltraDrop Technology, the new VUTEk 5r model offers the fastest throughput for a superwide-format printer in its class. Introduced in January 2017, the new 5-meter device runs at speeds up to 4,896 square feet per hour (455 square meters) in resolutions up to 1,200 dpi.
The printer features optional light colors, as well as white ink, for higher-end imaging quality and expanded versatility when printing on transparent or colored media.
“In terms of LED inkjet print quality, our new VUTEk 5r printer can print anything a latex or conventional roll-to-roll printer could produce and the output is terrific,” said Graff.
