The Agfa M-Press Leopard has undergone a number of modifications which are being shown at Drupa.
The machine’s bed size has been increased to 1.6 x 3.3m to accommodate the growing range of materials for which larger sizes are standard, such as Forex rigid sheets. Handling longer media is catered for efficiently by an increase to 75 vacuum zones for easy positioning of the sheet, while the 29 register pins maintain the correct alignment of the substrate.
Among various other Drupa announcements (see previous stories) Agfa said it is to target digital markets and industrial applications with a variety of UV inks being made
available to system integrators, OEMs, industries etc in a variety of different formulations, researched and developed for specific market sectors and printhead integration.
The Agora and Altamira inks lines are composed of industrial inks targeted to many specific applications, including object and decoration printing, label printing, packaging printing, marking and coding and transpromotional printing.
