Print diverse shapes on thicker materials with Roland DG’s new VersaUV LEF2-300D

Roland DG has a new addition to its popular VersaUV LEF2 series benchtop UV flatbed printers – the LEF2-300D. The newly-launched printer joins the LEF2-200, LEF2-300 and LEF-12i models and features an expanded workspace that supports a height of up to 200 mm, 100mm more than the standard model.

The LEF2 series employs UV-LED lamps to instantly cure ink, and is capable of printing directly onto plastics, leather, wood, fabrics and numerous other materials, allowing users to add ultra-realistic graphics and simulated embossing to a broad range of items like smartphone cases, awards, souvenirs, giftware, leather goods, electronic devices and much more. With the added height, the LEF2-300D’s workspace is effectively doubled, which expands the potential of printing onto not only thicker materials, but also a wider variety of shapes by accommodating diverse sizes and types of jigs.

According to Hisashi Bito, President of Roland DG's Digital Printing Business Division, the LEF2-300D was developed in response to customer feedback.

“The LEF2 series meets the growing demand for personalised, one-of-a-kind items and high-mix, small-lot runs. With its larger print space, the LEF2-300D further boosts customer creativity, and expands the scope of profitable business opportunities,” he said.
