Looking ahead to PSI: Personalising promotional items with Roland DG
Tuesday 16. December 2014 - At PSI, Europe's largest trade show for promotional products, Roland DG exhibits various machines which can personalise promotional items quickly and inexpensively. These digital printers and cutters will be demonstrated at Stand B-30 in Hall 12.
Just as in other sectors, the promotional materials industry is also searching for digital alternatives to their traditional processes. The demand for small quantities and different versions of personalised promotional articles is becoming larger, which means that the search for less expensive alternatives is also increasing. The digital machines from Roland DG provide the ideal solution.
At PSI, the trade show that will take place in Düsseldorf from 7 through 9 January, Roland DG will show off these solutions.
Personalising with colourful prints
Roland DG is known throughout the world for its reliable and high-quality inkjet printers. At PSI, the company will exhibit two printer models which are perfect for personalising promotional products.
The first printer is the VersaUV LEF-20. This is a flatbed printer designed for gadgets, promotional gifts and other promo materials. The machine has a printing surface area of 508 by 330 mm. It prints text and images at a very high resolution on a large variety of promotional articles, including iPhone and tablet covers, pens, Plexiglas photo cubes, golf balls and other objects or plates up to 10 cm high.
The second model is the VersaCAMM VS-i. This is the newest arrival within the popular VersaCAMM series of user-friendly printers/cutters. Thanks to the built-in cutting blade, stickers, textile transfers and labels are automatically cut out.
Unique items with letter cut-outs
Cutters are often used for the personalisation of promotional products. The Roland DG cutters can cut all kinds of materials, such as vinyl, transfer material, sandblast film and even thicker magnetic film. These cut-outs can then easily be used to personalise gadgets, clothing and promotional gifts.
Focus on 3D printing and milling
And, finally, the spotlight at the Roland stand will also shine on 3D printing and milling using the new monoFab series machines. The ARM-10 3D printer builds prototypes of new products out of transparent resin. The SRM-20 desktop milling machine mills models out of different materials, including ABS, acrylic and modelling wax.
