Label Power recently became the ANZ agent for the IMAGO series of printers that represent the epitome of maximum quality, precision and durability of colour printing in metal, producing highly durable, even indestructible, prints on anodised aluminium.
Printing technology in anodised aluminium involves printing a sheet of metal with a porous structure. Anodising opens the pores into which the ink is introduced during printing. The workpiece is then boiled in a water bath, which closes the pores with a conversion coating of aluminium oxides. This creates an aluminium protective layer over the print, ensuring its indestructibility. IMAGO aluminium printers guarantee a durable and damage-resistant print.
The AQUILA Aluminum device can be used to create, among other things, nameplates; information plates and boards; warehouse labels; building signage; control panels and front panels for appliances; gravestone plaques; diplomas and certificates.
“The high quality and precision of the printing allow every detail to be reproduced. As a result, nameplates, control panels or room markings will be durable and retain their appearance for many years,” enthused James Malone, CEO, Label Power. “With AQUILA Aluminum it is possible to save time and become independent of external suppliers.
“The Aquila Aluminum device will prove itself wherever the quality of the applied print, its durability and short lead time of the finished products matter. What is more, the print is very precise and repeatable on each product.”
Full technology package for printing in metal
To further increase the precision and durability of prints, IMAGO has developed a technology package that includes a VSG suction-heating attachment to increase colour saturation and print precision and a TECHNOLOGY WAN – to increase durability by sealing printed sheets.
Active print drying system
The Aluminum printer is equipped with a drying system that speeds up the solvent evaporation process. This allows for greater colour saturation and printing of fine details, small fonts and symbols.
Ability to fulfill small orders and personalisation
Printers from IMAGO are practical devices for personalisation. With a digital printer for aluminium, you can easily and quickly produce small and varied orders without worrying about downtime in large production. Unlike screen printing, Aquila Aluminum applies all colours simultaneously allowing you to create colour-rich designs. The printer can also be used for printing, for example, on absorbent materials like cork or wood
Signalling systems and intuitive service mode
The systems used in the machine allow easy operation of the device. Signalling systems will inform you when you need to add ink or empty the operating tank. The aluminium printer will also inform you when the printout is finished.
Print head with cleaning fluid
The printer’s ink system with channels for cleaning fluid reduces problems with clogging of the print head and consumable components of the device.
