Among the products on display at ISA 2011:

The Acuity Advance HS X2 UV flatbed printer, with its impressive print speed of 462 sq ft per hour in production mode, offers photographic print quality and powerhouse performance that was previously found only with much more expensive printers. The Acuity Advance HS X2 is specifically designed for print applications that require fine detail and high resolution imaging and is available with a roll media option, making it an ideal solution for printing on a variety of materials. The HS X2 will run throughout the show, featuring 4-color plus white inks and continuous printing of up to 21 - 4' x 8' sheets per hour. Fujifilm will also demonstrate HumanEyes Producer 3D, an end-to-end solution that covers the entire process of lenticular image production including 3D, flip, zoom and motion.

The Acuity Advance LT UV flatbed printer, the entry-level model of the Acuity series, will be shown for the first time at ISA. The Acuity Advance LT offers fine detail and high resolution imaging technology at a truly affordable price. The LT will be equipped with the roll media option, and will feature 4-color printing on white and clear rigid substrates, while the roll option will be printing on Ultraflex media.

The Uvistar roll printer, available in 3.5 meter and 5 meter configurations, is designed to print both POP and billboard quality, and can produce output at impressive speeds of up to 3700 sq ft per hour. Capable of producing work on a wide variety of substrates including Polyethylene (PE), the Uvistar has the lowest cost of ink of any UV roll press in its class. We will be printing single and multi-roll on Ultraflex media on a 3.5 meter press, demonstrating billboard and POP applications.

The Mutoh ValueJet 1618-64" dual-headed, 8-channel roll printer, will also be displayed during ISA 2011. Printing at speeds of up to 480 sq ft per hour on coated and uncoated substrates, the ValueJet 1618-64" uses Mutoh's intelligent interweaving print technology that jets ink in waves rather than traditional straight lines, increasing speed and virtually eliminating banding.
