Our Capabilities

Wide Format

Digital printing does not use any tooling or plates to print, instead it transfers a digital image from computer to printer

Wide Format 01

This print process is ideal for one off’s or very short runs due to its quick set-up. Less so for large volumes due to the slower printing speed of the machines. Ink is transferred to the substrate with precise droplet placement from print heads.

Here at The Label Centre, we have a fleet of wide format digital printers.

3 x UV printers (2 x LEC-540, 1 x LEC2-640) and 1 x solvent printer (XR640). All 4 printers have print and cut technology meaning they can print and cut contours in the same operation, they automatically contour cut virtually any shape for unmatched versatility. The main difference between our UV and Solvent printers is the ink formulation and print technology.

Our finishing department allows us to add laminate to all our printed substrates and also create special media constructions by laminating adhesives to raw plastics. Labels are mainly finished in manageable sized sheets.

Technology

Roland printers:

Roland LEC-540 & LEC2-640
The Roland LEC-540 prints CMYK + white + gloss or matt varnish and is cured by low temperature UV LED lamps which gives instant drying and a very durable finish. The ECO-UV ink delivers high density and a wide colour gamut. Its formulation produces prints that can be stretched around curved surfaces and edges without cracking. For indoor applications, ECO-UV inks offer superior scratch and chemical resistance. Outdoors, ECO-UV inks last up to six months without coating and up to two years when clear varnish is applied as a finish. The UV LED process allows it to handle an array of substrates such as vinyl, polyester, polycarbonate, paper, rigid plastics and many more. Also, the straight media path allows for printing on semi-rigid sheets such as card / plastic stock and polycarbonates up to 1mm thick. The print width ranges from 260mm to 1370mm. The LEC2-640 has the addition of a primer.

Roland Soljet XR640
The Roland Soljet XR640 prints CMYK, Light Cyan, Light Magenta and Light Black. The addition of light colours allows for neutral greys, natural skin tones and seamless graduations. The XR-640 fires ink droplets of seven different sizes for exceptionally smooth graduations and flawless solid colours. The ECO-SOL ink dries fast and offers outstanding long-term outdoor durability, scratch and chemical resistance and a wide gamut. The integrated tri-heater system features a pre-heater to improve substrate receptiveness, print heater to accelerate ink fastness and brightness and a dryer to ensure greater productivity and scratch resistance. ECO-SOL ink is formulated for lasting performance with outdoor durability of up to 3 years without lamination (dependent on application, location, and substrate). This lasts much longer with addition of UV blocking laminate. Our XR-640 prints on a wide range of vinyl’s up to 1mm thick and benefits from its straight media path printing widths from 260mm to 1600mm.

We have two cut only machines:

Summa F612
A versatile flatbed cutting system which can handle both rolls and sheets.  It can cut media up to 1650mm wide and up to 5mm thick making it the perfect choice for more heavy-duty material.

Graphtec FC8600-160
Used for precise and contour cutting of laminated products.
