Canon U.S.A. Inc. announced the launch of the new Arizona 135 GT UV flatbed printer, which offers sign makers, print service providers and offset and screen printers, among others, new ways to fulfill business opportunities.
Whether starting out in the rigid applications, large format graphics industry or looking to diversify into new applications, the Arizona 135 GT delivers high image quality, productivity and reliability, application versatility and excellent total cost of ownership – at a smart investment level, the company reports.
Designed for outstanding productivity and application versatility, the easy-to-use Arizona 135 GT produces exceptional image quality due to its VariaDot grayscale printing technology, which uses advanced drop size selection techniques to deliver photo-realistic images. It has the ability to handle substrates of up to 49.2 x 98.4 inches (125 x 250 cm) in size and up to 2.0 inches (50.8 mm) thick and to print at speeds of up to 368 ft²/hour (34.2 m²/hour).
Due to Arizona flatbed technology and its UV-LED curing, a range of durable applications are achievable on rigid or flexible media with standard or porous surfaces, including glass, aluminum and other metals, canvas, wood, MDF, cardstock, ceramic tiles and plastics.
The Arizona 135 GT's VariaDot technology uses variable drop sizes from 6 to 42 picoliters. Not only does this produce pin-sharp images, but it also means that the Arizona printing process consumes as much as 50% less ink than regular 6-color, (CMYKcm) fixed drop size flatbed printers. The device's environmental credentials also include the use of UL GREENGUARD Gold certified inks for indoor applications, such as in schools, hospitals and retail stores – and the low emissions can make for a healthier printing environment, too.
Additionally, the Arizona 135 GT features low-energy consumption as a result of its Instant-On functionality and minimal warm-up time, thanks to its LED lamps.
"The Arizona has become renowned for its image quality, productivity, reliability and application versatility, winning multiple awards and resulting in over 7,500 installations worldwide," said Shinichi Yoshida, EVP and GM, Canon U.S.A., Inc. "In bringing the Arizona 135 GT to market, we're looking to make the ideal flatbed platform for printing multiple applications on both rigid and flexible media available to any interested party.”
