swissQprint brings a new UV Flatbed to the market
Monday 18. May 2009 - Following the withdrawal of substantially Swiss machine manufacturer from the Printer Market there emerges a new company called swissQprint. The new company has been formed by the former development and manufacturing team from above named company and they continue a 10 year success story by bringing a new Premium UV inkjet to the market under the name of Oryx.
Maintaining the same team who were responsible for the original two successfully flatbed Combi printer has been a key factor in the development of the all new Oryx. The united experience of over 500 installations installed world-wide, listening to end user needs, plus Swiss engineering are combined in this new innovative printer.

215?series. Reto and many of the team were with Leica Heerbrugg and involved in high quality optics and engineering. A true story of the Swiss Valleys.
Driven by user requests with many innovative engineering firsts, Oryx delivers a
versatile production printer. A true Hybrid printer for rigid, roll and oversized materials from a single platform. Latest grey scale head technology with precise mechanics and intuitive simple software round off a beautifully engineered
Swiss product.
Engineering, software and electronics are all controlled locally in Widnau valley in Switzerland. This local and central manufacturing facility is focused and dedicated to the manufacture of UV-Printers, Oryx being the first of a new generation. This focus and controlled engineering gives an economy of design and manufacture that results in a finished printer at a very competitive price?/?performance.
