The Omega 1 combines Durst`s 10 years` experience of both flatbed and roll to roll printing technology and can print rigid and flexible material without compromise to either. The machine will print onto media like Kapa®, Forex®, Acrylic, Dibond® and wood up to a thickness of 5cm, as well as onto self adhesive foils, papers, PVC vinyls, PE foils or textiles. It is very compact in size, only requiring 15m2 floor space, yet it will print large images up to 160cm wide by any length, which is only limited by the media length, and at a production speed up to 35m2 per hour.

The high quality universal UV Omega 1 inks are supplied in 1litre cubitainers to ensure that the ink retains its optimal performance even at low production levels and provides perfect adhesion on hard, non- absorbent surfaces as well as flexible material. They will also provide excellent adhesion on such materials as metals, polycarbonates and acrylics, particularly important to sign makers.

The new Omega 1 is the ideal printing tool for graphic display companies, sign makers, screen printers, photolabs and studios who would like the opportunity to enter the UV inkjet printing technology without the risk of investing in an entry level machine that does not have the backing of the most competent partner in inkjet technology – Durst.
