What Makes the TrueVIS AP-640
Resin Printer so Amazing?
The Widest Color Gamut in its Class
TA Inks boast the widest gamut and most vibrant colors of any 4-color resin/latex wide-format printer.* The TrueRichColor 3 print setting maximizes the potential of the printer and inks, so you can produce highly impactful graphics that combine vivid colors and natural tones that viewers are sure to love.
Spot Colors That Are Spot-On
The AP-640 offers excellent color reproduction capabilities, allowing you to match brand colors, even those that are traditionally difficult. Consistent, high-quality output can be produced in short turnaround times, keeping your customers coming back for more.
Dimensional Stability in Long Print Runs
The latest TrueVIS media feed and take-up system ensure stable, accurate printing over long print runs, commonly an issue with other devices. Ideal for printing wall coverings, fleet wraps and wide-format graphics on full rolls of media, the AP-640 delivers the most consistent color and registration from start to finish, to optimize your efficiency and profitability.
Media Profiles Ready to Go
More than 300 popular media profiles are ready for use with the AP-640 and TA Ink, including PVC and non-PVC media, such as wallpaper, paper, film, vinyl, roll-up screens, textiles, canvas, heat transfer paper and more – so you can be ready to produce a wide range of applications right from the start.
The highly concentrated colour pigmentation of TrueVIS Resin Ink enables heavier colour saturation than conventional resin inks and printers for optimum graphic impact on paper, fabric, canvas, wallpaper, non-PVC materials, and other media.
The True Rich Color preset takes full advantage of the high colour saturation of new TrueVIS Ink to maximise print vibrancy and ensure neutral greys, smooth gradations, and natural skin tones.
Variable Dot Printing
TrueVIS resin printers benefit from hundreds of dedicated, media-specific printing profiles that control optimal ink volume and drying temperature. An optimiser prepares the media surface facilitating the formation of precise dots while variable dot control technology fires three types of ink droplets to create unparalleled image quality, producing natural beauty and vividness never before seen in a resin ink printer.
Dual Staggered Printheads for Resin Inks
Printheads are arranged in a dual, staggered formation with an optimiser printhead that preps the media surface for the CMYK printhead. This enables ink droplets to form a finer dot, resulting in more precise colour and images.
Touch-Panel Operation
A 7-inch, full-colour touch panel with intuitive settings and functions makes print operations simple. Clearly defined icons for set-up, maintenance, print volume, consumables, print status, and more allow for a convenient, streamlined workflow.
High-Productivity Dryer Unit
Newly designed drying unit allows prints to dry quickly and completely before proceeding to the next process, saving hours of production time.
Automatic Gap Adjustment
Media gap and feed compensation can now be adjusted automatically with a single button. The AP uses optical registration technology to ensure print accuracy and avoid variations in output.
Included Take-Up Unit
An adjustable take-up provides print stability for a wide variety of popular media. It also allows easy installation of a loading platform for clean, efficient media collection.
Instant Drying
Drying time is virtually eliminated thanks to a built in heating unit.
Speed is Key
Dual, staggered Piezo printheads receive optimiser and ink in tandem to maintain optimal workflow.
Improved Ink Capacity
New 700 ml high-capacity ink pouches are easily replaceable, supporting economical and environmental printing operation.
Resin Ink Re-imagined
Our newly developed water-based resin ink and innovative True Rich Color 3 preset works together to ensure vibrant colour and natural-looking print quality time and again.
