Polytype adds a 10-pl print head and enhances print quality

The Swiss digital wide-format printer manufacturer, Polytype, has added a new 10-picolitre print head to its arsenal of Virtu wide-format range.

According to Polytype, the new Virtu Quantum series launched at Fespa, offers exceptionally fine output for display application including those viewed close up.
 
Polytype recently announced the launch of Virtu series of UV curable ink series in the Indian digital large-format print market through its Ahmedabad-based representative, Arrow Digital.
 
The manufacturer emphasised that the minute 10-picolitre dots are incorporated into the greyscale technology expansion, which varies droplet size to improve resolution and maximise ink coverage. Additionally, this control over droplet sizes allows the production of finer detail and improved clarity in graduations and small text sizes.
 
According to Polytype, which is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year, all types of print businesses are expected to produce innovative jobs output onto a large amount of rigid and flexible materials, both standard and unusual.

"With the Polytype Virtu Quantum they no longer need to worry: any material, from leather to glass and Dibond to aluminium, can benefit from the near-photographic resolution offered while keeping the productivity advantages of previous Virtu models," said Sylvia Muhr, European sales director for Polytype's Virtu business unit.
 
She said that the theme of Fespa Digital is evolution and it nicely fits into the responsibility of technology manufacturers that Polytype believes will help print companies drive that change by offering advanced platforms that increase quality enough to meet new challenges.
