Durst is making a Web-based database with over 1,500 tested roll media available to Rho printer users.
Durst customers can have their printing materials and designs tested in Durst's demo centre in Brixen and in return receive the optimum parameters in order to set up their system for the relevant application. An archive of more than 1,500 tested types of media has been built up over the years and Durst now has digitalised this information and collated it into the new database.
In future, customers will be able to access the database via a Web browser, make a selection according to material manufacturer, media type and area of application and download the required data as a PDF file. This will enable them to start production with new applications in no time.
Durst has nicknamed its new database for roll media ‘Ask Hubi’ in reference to Hubert Fischer, the technical head of the media sampling department.
Durst is also offering a new option for the Rho 312R and Rho 512R: a system for double-sided printing using CCD camera monitoring. With this solution customers are able to print the front and reverse of city light posters for day and night applications.
