Andesign raises the bar with their investment of a Massivit 1800 3D Printing Solution and EFI H1625-SD UV LED printer
There is no denying that Andesign is at the top of their game when it comes to digital graphic display and signage. With capacity to print onto almost any surface, they specialise in large format print, offering the highest quality graphics at impressive turnaround times.
In a rapidly-growing and competitive market, maintaining a consistently high standard is paramount. “We wanted to expand our applications, with branding innovations for our customers, raising the bar on high-impact solid model displays. We realised that in order to offer the best large format 3D products in the market, we needed to invest in new technology” says Andy Williams, Managing Director at Andesign.
With an already established working relationship with CMYUK – the UK's largest independent supplier of wide-format digital printers, cutting equipment and materials – Andesign decided to invest in the Massivit 1800 as well as an EFI H1625-SD. In addition, the forward-thinking company is adding a spray booth and a Formech 8ft x 4ft thermoforming machine to enable them to make their own moulds from prints produced on the H1625-SD.
Sue Hayward, Senior Digital Consultant at CMYUK says “The Massivit 1800 runs at an impressive speed, and is incredibly versatile. It is the fastest 3D printer on the market and will allow Andy and his team to make large format 3D signage, illuminated displays and props, moulds for thermoforming, and custom channel lettering up to 1.8m x 1.5m x 1.2m in size. The EFI H1625-SD prints four colours plus two channels of white and a stunning eight levels of greyscale. It also features the latest UV EFI SuperDraw inks with elongation characteristics for printing directly onto formable substrates. This is a fantastic investment that will no doubt see impressive results.”
