BARCELONA - SPGPrints has debuted its new Javelin 2 printer at ITMA 2019, promising: "improved ease of use, an optimised print head cleaning cycle and enhanced ink supply," along with faster printing cycles and reduced maintenance costs due to a more "robust" design than its 2016 predecessor.
Jos Notermans, marketing manager at SPGPrints, spoke to T.EVO on the ground at ITMA. He told us: "We have done an internal overhaul of the machine, to make it more robust, because 5-6 years ago, the discussion with digital was always about how they were too slow and too expensive. Now the speed is there, especially with a single pass, and ink prices have come down considerably, so you see a shift on focus to reliability and efficiency, which Javelin 2 is designed for."
